ABINGDON BOTTLING WORKS OF ABINGDON, VA
I finally found an estimated date of operation and location of the Abingdon Bottling Works. Due to an ad from March 26, 1908 which reads "Abingdon Bottling Works…Just opposite depot…soft drinks" I finally have the location narrowed down within a block or so in the general area of the present home of the US Post Office in Abingdon. I personally think that the fact that the Abingdon Grocery Company being located in the same area, and sharing a very similar name, is no accident and that the Abingdon Grocery Company itself may be the home of this particular bottling company. I wouldn't be the first time that a wholesale grocery company spawned a bottling works.
This was the location of the Abingdon Grocery Company which was in existence during the time period of the Abingdon Bottling Works.
