American Asbestos Textile Corporation plant at Milford Square, Pennsylvania

In September 1967, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that American Asbestos Textile Corporation had "a 50,000 square foot yarn mill under construction near Milford Square, Pennsylvania," scheduled to begin production later that year alongside its plants in Norristown, Pennsylvania, and Meredith, New Hampshire.1 The company's own advertisement in the same issue already listed Milford Square among its plants.1 In January 1969 the company's president, J. W. Weber, wrote in Asbestos of its decision "to build a new textile plant near Quakertown, Pennsylvania," and of meeting "the large 1968 demand for asbestos textiles from our new mill"; he does not name Milford Square there.2
