Scope and Contents

The International Union of Bricklayers and Allied Craftsmen, Local 46, collection is comprised of the records from three of four locals which merged to form Local 46. Included in the collection are the minutes (1900-1919, 1929-1959, 1970-1975), membership records (1891-1900, 1914-1915, n.d.), and financial papers (n.d.) for Local 2; the minutes (1956-1968) and a financial ledger (1938-1957) for Local 26; and minutes (1947-1964) and a monthly report (January 1964) for Local 19. Also included in the collection is a photograph of the Seventh Annual Ohio State Conference of Bricklayers (1912).

The minutes of the locals provide information on the daily business of these unions and their relationships with other locals and state and national organizations. Some chronological gaps do occur, however, especially with Local 2, and the lack of minutes for Local 37 (Sandusky) result in weakening the overall strength of this collection.
