Note: The following is from "Historical Accounts of Industry, Texas 1831 - 1986" by the Industry-West End Historical Society, copyright 1986:
From Jesse C. Buenger's manuscript on the history of Industry, one of the auto repair shops listed was operated by Hugo Weige. In 1916, he bought a two-story building from Adolph Buenger just across the street from Dr. B.E. Knolle. Mr. Weige continued in the shop until 1931, when Hwy. 159 was built. At that time, he tore his building down and moved it to its present location which is the northwest corner of Highways 159 and 109.
After Hugo Weige moved locations, Mr. Eldie Buenger built a new building in 1931 at the same location from which Mr. Weige had moved and opened a Texaco Service Station. He sold tires, batteries, other supplies and did general repair work. He continued in business until March 1, 1946, when he sold it to L.J. Luedecke upon his return from the service.
