Martinsville, IN. This was the first alignment of what is now State Road 39 near the west fork of the White River on Martinsville's northwest side. Don't cite this as an authoritative source, but my reading over the past couple years suggests that Martinsville had a brick industry in the early 1900s, and that bricks were laid on the Dixie Highway (now SR 37) near Martinsville in about 1915, so I want to think that these bricks went in at about the same time.
Remains of the old brick factory at Claybank National Historic Site. The factory made these yellowish-red bricks from near the turn of the 19th century until 1989. Much of the process was still somewhat done by hand. I would love to know which of the countless civic and municipal buildings in southern Saskatchewan were constructed from Claybank brick. It's a fascinating place to visit as it was just as if the owners turned off the lights and handed the keys to the federal government. It's in "as is" condition.
