LANDERS, FRARY & CLARK Landers, Frary &
Clark traces its start to the time George Landers, age
sixteen, arrived in New Britain, Connecticut in 1829
looking for a job. He soon went to work for Josiah Dewey
who, seven years earlier, had started a small foundry
making cupboard latches and other hardware. After
Dewey's death, it became Landers & Smith Manufacturing
Company in 1853. As president, Landers' salary was seven
hundred dollars a year.
In 1862 the small
but prosperous company made another of the many
acquisitions that were to mark its history and growth in
future years. It acquired the firm of Frary, Clark &
Company, of Meriden Connecticut, the company name
changed to Landers, Frary & Clark, which it retained for
the next full century of its existence.
