I bought a 50lb box of vintage jewelry over the weekend at a yard sale, found this ribbon bar pin, and I can't figure out what
organization it goes to, I was thinking maybe the woodsmen of america, but I'm not exactly sure. I think its from PA,due to the keystone crest, I know Williamsport was the considered the lumber capital of the world during the late 19thc. in PA, but I can't seem to find any info or pics to compare to.
The reverse is not marked with a maker. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Take it to the coin show in Philly (I think in Sept). There are plenty of medal and exunomia dealers there. Maybe they can tell you about it or even make on offer on it.
 

Good ID Bramble. GAR ribbon medal. Now you know what the little cross bar under the pin latch is for.
