The growth and industrial development of Rappahannock County is reflected in statistics released by Willard E. Risdon, district manager of Dun & Bradstreet, Inc., at Baltimore which covers this area. Basing his facts on a physical count of the January, 1970 edition of the Dun & Bradstreet Reference Book, Mr. Risdon reports that there are now 41 manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers located in Rappahannock County. Mr. Risdon noted that each March business concerns in all parts of the United States are asked by Dun & Bradstreet for copies of their financial statements. This year requests are being sent to nearly three million business concerns--to the comer grocery store, worth a few thousand dollars, as well as to businesses worth millions.
