Union Asbestos & Rubber Co. (UNARCO) had a plant at Earlville, Illinois: in March 1949 Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, named Earlville among the company's plants where asbestos products were "already being manufactured," with Cicero, Ill., Paterson, N.J., and Davidson and Marshville, N.C.1 In December 1950 the journal again listed Earlville among UNARCO's plants, alongside Cicero and Blue Island, Illinois; Paterson, N.J.; McGregor, Texas and Marshville, North Carolina.2 Neither item says what was made at Earlville.1,2
