Jobes Milling Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jobes Milling Company was a flour mill based in the St. Johns neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. It was constructed in 1904 by William Van Zant Jobes who relocated to St. Johns from Spokane, Washington. He died in 1907 and his sons took over the mill. In 1910, William Haskell Jobes died leaving sole ownership to his brother Allan R. Jobes. He sold the mill in 1918 and died three years later. The Rose City Flour Mill operated the mill as a subsidiary until the building was demolished in 1930.
