Burgess Battery Firm Faces Move from Monroe Plant
Burgess Battery Co faces vacating its south side Monroe plant by November 1, with 165 employees. Chamber of Commerce and local merchants hope Freeport main office relocates the operation to Monroe, while a second Monroe sub-assembly plant may be used by a new fire-ten ant tenant as alterations are planned. The firm employed about 220 workers, largely women, and wartime orders have eased with peace returning.
