| rdfs:comment | - Elwood City prospered decades before 1903 as a logging town. The first saw mill was built on the banks of Bear Lake under the supervision of Jacob Katzenelenbogan In 1903, an infirm Katzenelenbogan attended the official declaration of Elwood City's incorporation. President Theodore Roosevelt declared the area known as Elwood an official city. Prominent businessmen of time, Henry Ford and J.P. Morgan donated a statue in honor of the city's founder, which Katzenellenbogan did not appreciate the generous contribution, simply because he intended for the name to be Elmwood. It was never changed, therefore the name stuck since that day.
