Bogalusa is a city in Washington Parish, Louisiana. The population was 13,365 at the 2000 census. It is the principal city of the Bogalusa Micropolitan Statistical Area, which includes all of Washington Parish and is also part of the larger New Orleans–Metairie–Bogalusa Combined... Statistical Area. Bogalusa was founded by the Goodyears of Buffalo, New York, who started the Great Southern Lumber Company in 1906. The sawmill was, for many years, the largest in the world. Bogalusa is famous for its reforestation program. In 1938, the Goodyears had ended their lumber operations at the Great Southern Lumber Company and sold the paper mill operations. The mill was owned by Crown Zellerbach until 1986 and its brown paper successor Gaylord Container Corporation until 2002, when Gaylord was acquired by Temple-Inland Corporation, the area's largest employer. Today, Bogalusa's economy revolves around the lumber and paper mills, as well as agriculture. The Great Southern Lumber Company mill was opened here in 1906, and the Goodyear interests of New York built a city around it that same year, to house workers for their sawmill.
