Historical NoteReturn to Top
Founded in 1889, the Bellingham Bay Improvement Company (BBIC) operated as a speculative real estate venture, also actively involved in resource extraction and railroad development in Bellingham and Whatcom County, Washington. BBIC’s predecessor’s were the Bellingham Bay Coal Company, Bellingham Bay Water Company, and the Bellingham Bay and British Columbia Railroad Company. In 1854, San Francisco investors established Bellingham Bay Coal Company to extract coal previously discovered by Henry Roeder in hills off the northeastern shore of Bellingham Bay. In 1866, Darius Ogden Mills purchased and reorganized the company as the Black Diamond Coal Company. Under the management of Pierre B. Cornwall, the mines operated profitably until their closure in 1878. By this time, Black Diamond had acquired considerable land around Bellingham Bay, and for the next several years, Cornwall concentrated the company’s efforts on the sale of real estate.
In 1883, Mills and Cornwall were involved in establishing two further Bellingham Bay enterprises: Bellingham Bay Water Company and the Bellingham Bay and British Columbia Railroad (BB&BCRC). BB&BCRC was established to construct a small railroad between Bellingham Bay and Sumas, a village on the British Columbia border. Cornwall and Mills, anticipating the arrival of the transcontinental Canadian Pacific Railway in Vancouver in 1887, hoped that their railroad would provide a strong incentive for an American transcontinental railroad to choose Bellingham Bay as its terminus. When construction of the railroad began in 1889, BB&BCRC transferred all real estate assets to the newly formed Bellingham Bay Improvement Company. Besides developing and selling property, BBIC engaged in logging and lumber manufacture, forming the subsidiary Bellingham Bay Lumber Company in 1906, and also producing and selling electricity to the surrounding community. Another BBIC subsidiary, Bellingham Terminals and Railroad Company, provided rail connections to local industries.
By the turn of the twentieth century, BBIC was entrenched in every aspect of the Bellingham economy. During the first decade of the twentieth century, and following P.B. Cornwall’s death in 1904, control of the company began to shift from San Francisco investors to interests in the Pacific Northwest. G. C. Hyatt, first employed by BBIC as a land agent in the 1890s, became one of the key figures in the new company leadership. Hyatt became president of BBIC in 1910, and in 1912 formed Bellingham Securities Syndicate with investors from Seattle, Tacoma, and Bellingham. The Syndicate soon purchased control of BBIC’s holdings and those of the lumber mills and railroad company. Hyatt and his associates sold off the lumber and railroad interests to concentrate on real estate and capital investments. The depression of the 1930s heavily affected the Syndicate’s holdings, and the final remnants of BBIC ceased operations on the eve of World War II.
Content DescriptionReturn to Top
The BBIC Records document the existence and activities of Bellingham Bay Coal Company, Bellingham Bay Water Company, Bellingham Bay and British Columbia Railroad Company, Bellingham Bay Improvement Company, Bellingham Bay Lumber Company, and the Bellingham Securities Syndicate Incorporated. The collection spans the period 1855 to 1986, with the bulk of material dated around 1883 to 1930.
While records for Bellingham Bay Coal Company and the Bellingham Bay Water Company comprise only two administrative and financial ledgers, the collection contains a more substantial body of corporate, financial and other materials documenting each of the remaining “BBIC” companies. Records for the Bellingham Bay & British Columbia Railroad Company include property records documenting the company’s ownership and transfer of real estate in Sehome and New Whatcom between 1883 and 1910. Company records also contain correspondence, maps and field and survey records relating to railroad development in the early twentieth century, including J.J. Donovan’s efforts to locate a viable rail route from the Glacier area across the Cascade Mountains to Spokane.
Records of the Bellingham Bay Improvement Company (BBIC) include corporate and administrative material and also a substantial amount of correspondence spanning the period 1889-1917. Correspondence documents the general business dealings between BBIC and local organizations, businesses and individuals, and G.C. Hyatt’s activities in the activities of the Bellingham Bay & British Columbia Railroad Company, Bellingham Bay Lumber Company, Bellingham Terminals Company and the Bellingham Securities Syndicate. The collection also contains correspondence between company officials including P.B. Cornwall, H.H. Taylor and G.C. Hyatt regarding the operations, fortunes and objectives of BBIC and its related companies. Financial and property records document corporate involvement in the development, rental and transfer of real estate in New Whatcom. Project Files and materials relating specifically to the 1911-1914 Tideland Fill project on Bellingham’s waterfront also reflect BBIC’s role in the industrial and urban development of early Bellingham and Whatcom County.
Bellingham Bay Lumber Company records document logging and lumber operations from 1906 onwards, and also include correspondence and agreements pertaining to the sale of the Bellingham lumber mill to Bloedel-Donovan in 1912. Lumber Company materials contain a small number of papers from its subsidiary, Bay City Sash and Door Factory, as well as correspondence, agreements and minutes produced by the Whatcom County Lumber Manufacturers’ Retail Association. Bellingham Bay Securities Syndicate records include corporate and financial materials and correspondence documenting the corporation’s 1912 acquisition of BBIC, BB&BCRC and Bellingham Bay Lumber Company holdings and their subsequent divestment. Company records also contain legal papers and notes pertaining to 1984-1986 title dispute between the Roeder Company and Burlington Northern over former company land.
Researchers should note that the collection’s maps also contain valuable information about company holdings in Bellingham and Whatcom County, the physical restructuring of Bellingham’s streets and landscape, as well as extractive industries and rail development in Washington and British Columbia from the late nineteenth century through around 1912.

Correspondence - Company
Officials
Contains substantive information
regarding the fortunes and objectives of BBIC and its related companies,
including its financial situation, the need for investment in the community and
railroad, and proposals for the sale of corporate holdings. Some of these
letters also reflect the company’s continued but unrealized hope that
Bellingham might become the western terminus of a cross continental rail line,
linking with the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway. Correspondence is
arranged alphabetically by name of correspondent, and separated into incoming
and outgoing material. All letter book correspondence is outgoing from G.C.
Hyatt.

Financial Records
(BBIC)
Financial records document income and
expenditure relating to BBIC's activities and interests in Bellingham, and also
reflect the company's involvement in the rental and sale of real estate in New
Whatcom. Monthly and Annual Reports document company operations and
expenditures, including evaluations of company property. Monthly Rent Records
document names of leaser, rent payment, and location of BBIC property. Vouchers
in boxes 51 - 100 document recording payments owed between the company and
local businesses and individuals in exchange for a variety of goods and
services. Vouchers are separated by type wherever possible, and then arranged
chronologically. Many of the vouchers are numbered – these numbers correspond
to those listed in BBIC’s voucher journals (volumes 132 – 137). Audited
Vouchers and regular vouchers are interfiled and arranged chronologically.

Property Records
(BBIC)
Property records include Platted Land
books of maps displaying the division of New Whatcom land into blocks and lots
between 1884-1912, and show additions to neighborhoods including the First
Addition (1889) and Broadway Park addition (1906). Many of these volumes
document the transfer and sale of individual lots, listing date of sale, name
of buyer and agreement or contract numbers. Agreement numbers correspond to the
contracts and agreements arranged in boxes 101-138. These contracts and
agreements comprise packets of numbered contracts and agreements - these can be
accessed via BBIC’s Company’s Platted Land Books (Volumes 140-145) or through
Land Sales records (Volumes 91-95). Volumes entitled "Conveyances, Deeds and
Agreements" comprise BBIC Land Department letter book copies of property
mortgage and sale agreements. Researchers should note that these volumes are
fragile, and many of the copies of low quality.
