A water tower with the name of Huebner Manufacturing appears in the background of some Hupp Motor Car photos in the Old Car Factory thread. Is there any chance Huebner Manufacturing was the forerunner of Anderson-Huebner Lumber at Allen Park, Michigan, and is there any way to trace that.

The only thing that I can recall is seeing another location for a Huebner planing mill on one of the old maps. I looked, but didn't find it, or remember what part of the city it was in. I'm kind of burnt out on research right now, so you're on your own.

The 1921 Sanborn map shows a Huebner Screen Door Co at 1961 Farnsworth near St. Aubin.

I wasn't looking for it, it just appeared when I was tracking down a cigar factory for the Polish thread.

Sorry for causing you any high anxiety.
