Johns-Manville plant at Savannah, Georgia

Johns-Manville ran a plant at Savannah, Georgia: in its sworn answers in a 1990 lawsuit, the fund that answered lawsuits for Manville Corporation dated it "(1956 to 1985)" and listed its products as Asbestos Roofing Felts, which the same fund called "asbestos containing."¹ The answers also name the doctors who served the Savannah plant: the practice of Brown & Bidingfield on Bull Street in Savannah, "1956 to 1985," and Lawrence J. Lynch, Jr., M.D., of Garden City, from "3/78 to 1985."¹
