A selected research collection centered on Connecticut Fat Rendering and Fertilizing Corporation. The name “West Haven Rendering Company” has not been verified. Front Avenue, Allingtown is the evidenced location. No verified reusable factory photographs were found. 1911 directory p.820 prints November 1902; 1918 biography p.456 prints October 1902. OCR mistakenly read the latter year as 1903; visually corrected to 1902.

Includes selected original images, full acquired OCR, source catalog, credits and a SQLite FTS5 database. Complete repository PDFs and modern external articles are linked, not included. Coverage and missing records are described in each collection’s scope and individual item notes.
