A Brief History of Henry Ford
and the Ford Motor Car Company
|
The Ford Motor Car Company
started with one man's dream of putting America on wheels.
That man was Henry Ford Born July 30, 1863 Henry Ford, grew up on the
family farm in what is today Dearborn, Michigan.
Henry Ford left home in 1879 for the
nearby city of Detroit. He was sixteen at the time and going to work as
an apprentice machinist. He worked at this for three years and then returned
to Dearborn. Upon his return he operated and repaired steam engines, finding
occasional work in a Detroit factory. He also over-hauled his father's
farm implements in his spare time.
In 1891, Ford he went to work for the Edison
Illuminating Company in Detroit as an engineer.
Although Ford was not the first to build a self-propelled vehicle, he was, however, one of several automotive pioneers who helped this country become a nation of motorists. In 1899 Ford quit his job at Edison and
with the help of some investors, he started the Detroit Auto Company
Ford moved back to his father's home in 1901.
He built a car on his own and with it beat Alexander Winton in an automobile
race. This attracted more investors and enabled him to form the Henry Ford
Co.

I have been collecting pictures of Studebakers, Packards Nash, Hudson and Jeeps for some time now and I first wrote a web page on this page on the Studebaker. Then one on Jeeps and Packard followed. Then came one Nash and Hudson. I have since added a page on old Pickup Trucks , Hudson. Essex and Terrplanes of Australia , Volkswagen Kaiser and Henry J and then with the help of one of my visitors have written one on the Crosley. All my previous pages had been on orphaned cars but now I thought I would try one a bit different. I wrote a page on the Chevrolet and now the Ford These pictures came for a number
of sources including web
