Biographical / Historical
The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 1076 received its charter on May 25, 1937. This local, chartered by ten workmen from the maintenance department of Sears and LaSalles Department Stores, was originally a part of Electrical Workers, Local 8, in Toledo, Ohio. The beginnings of this local grew out of a need for these workers to negotiate contracts independently of Local 8. No mergers have occurred since the creation of this local.
Offices were located at the Labor Temple in Toledo until December 1975, when the local relocated at 705 Lime City road, Rossford, Ohio 43460. The business manager as of the writing of the manuscript register was Thomas Curley. As of October 1997, Mr. Raymond Jones serves as Business Manager.
