It is my understanding that the Continental Can Company was well known in KC (KS or MO ??) in the early 1900's. I'm seeking information as to where old company records from 1928-1948 might be located and the history of the company before and after that time. It appears that a French company now owns it. Secondly..... is there anyone that could check city directories for William H. York who was employed at CCC during the above dates. We can not find him and his wife in the 1920 or 30 census.... we know they were in the area and Willie worked at the Can Comp. We would like to have a feel of there life and times during those 20 years. Your guidance will be appreciated... Ken Goldsberry

Ken, If I were you I would contact the company that now owns it and talk with them. They might be able to help you alot with this! Probably know whether or not those records are still in existence.
