The Ames Originally settled in 1881 by
Frederick A. Ames, as a carriage producer and later amended itself as an
American vehicles maker in Owensboro, Kentucky from “1910 to 1925. A
creepy crawly sponsored “respectable man’s roadster” and a five-traveler
tourer were the first models offered available to be purchased by the
organization. The organization likewise handled shift forms for the Ford
Model T. At its crest the organization processed more or less 30,000
vehicles. The last model the organization made was called “The Kentucky
Thoroughbred.” In 1922, the organization again revamped itself,
fabricating furniture under the name F. A. Ames Corporation until 1941
when F.a. Ames Corp. documented for chapter 11 and the majority of its
holdings were acquired by the Whitehall Furniture Co. of Owensboro.
Frederic A. Ames kicked the bucket in 1925 at the age of 60. At the
time of his passing, Ames was accounted for to have endless land holding
in Owensboro and Atlanta, Georgia. His widow, the previous Mary M.
Mcmannon, kicked the bucket in 1933. In spite of the fact that the Ames
had no youngsters of their own, Mary’s niece, Marie had been brought up
in their home as a received tyke, and inherited a large portion of Ames’
fortune.
