JEFFERSON STATION – Page 703

In 1866 Rebert, Auchy & Co., began the manufacture of thrashing machines, corn 
shellers, plows, etc., at Jefferson Station, one-half mile north of the village.  
Various kinds of castings were also made in the foundry.  The entire works were 
destroyed by fire in 1879.  Mr. Auchy rebuilt the shops and now continues the 
business individually.  At this point is now a collection of ten or twelve 
houses.
