Columbus Manufacturing sold out to a new firm called Chadbourn Veneer. One of the principals of this com- pany was J. A. Maultsby of Whiteville. Chadbourn Veneer took over the site in 1945 and began full operations in Feb- ruary 1946. The operation was run by President W.

Eventually, Waccamaw Veneer would sell out to a Florida operation.
