McFEELY BRICK COMPANY 
The McFeely Brick Company was organized in 1900, 
and incorporated under the laws of Pennsylvania in 1901. 
A silica brick plant was built at Latrobe, Pa., with an 
original capital of $40,000.00. The production during 
the first few years was about 3,000,000 brick a year, which 
has since increased to 20,000,000 brick and the capitaliza- 
tion to $160,000.00. Ten years ago, a first quality fire 
brick plant at Bolivar, Pa., was added, specializing on a 
slay brick adapted to open hearth steel practice. From 
time to time over a period of twenty years, the company 
has purchased coal lands about their plants which assure 
their fuel supply for a half a century or more. The com- 
pany employs about 850 men. 
f. B. McFeely is President, J. H. McFeely, Vice 
President, and J. M. Steele, Secretary and Treasurer.
