"Richard Mott Wanzer started manufacturing sewing machines in Canada in 1858 in a workshop on James Street, Hamilton and by 1861 the firm was producing 1000 machines per week. In the early 1860's the factory was moved to King Street, Hamilton and by 1875 over 500,000 machines had been produced. By 1889 a total of 1,500,000 Wanzer sewing machines had been produced since 1861." Cf. Website, Sewmuse, Enter the Museum, Canadian, A-Z Canadian Manufacturers, R. M.
