Bob,

        My bet for SB Co would be the Somers Brick Company of Bakersville in
Atlantic County.  They show up as a major producer in "The Clays and
Clay Industry of New Jersey" by Heinrich Ries and Henry B. Kummel,
published as Volume VI of the Final Report of the State Geologist (NJ),
1904.  Many of their bricks went to build Atlantic City, perhaps a few
went to Vineland as well.

Hope this helps,

Rich Veit
