This is a working list that is continually being expanded and cross referenced as I work through archival material. You will notice I pose questions next to some of the locals or include various notes. If you use this list as a reference please know it may not be 100% accurate. This is a continuation of my project to map the Congress of Industrial Organizations.
You will notice several different charters with the same local number. The International reused local numbers as they amalgamated or ceased to exist. Making this research a tad bit more difficult.
ILWU Local 1 - RAYMOND, WA (longshore) *** chartered ’37
ILWU Local 2 - SAN FRANCISCO, CA (shipscalers) *** chartered ’37
ILWU Local 3 - STOCKTON, CA, (Barge / Power Boat) *** chartered ’37
in 1950 Local 3 becomes catch all for the International Fisherman & Allied Workers after they are expelled from the CIO. Below is a list of locals that became Local 3 in 1950. I believe these numbers correspond with the original IFAWU locals so think of ILWU Local 3 as a Division, not a local.
