Millwood's name says it all. It was a mill town that milled wood. Redwood to be exact. One can even say they milled too much redwood as they cleared all but one of the giants from the area. It seems that the foreman got a conscience at the last minute and ordered the men to leave one of the giants which is now known as the Boole Tree. The Boole Tree can be visited today as it is still standing.
