The C.R. Patterson & Sons Company, founded by Charles Richard Patterson, holds the distinction of being the first African American-owned automobile manufacturer. Here’s a brief history of this pioneering company:

  1. Founding and Early Years: Charles Richard Patterson, born into slavery in 1833, escaped to freedom and settled in Greenfield, Ohio. He initially worked as a blacksmith and later partnered with J.P. Lowe to form a successful carriage-building business. In 1893, Patterson bought out Lowe’s share and renamed the company C.R. Patterson & Sons.
  2. Transition to Automobiles: After Charles Patterson’s death in 1910, his son Frederick Patterson took over the business. Recognizing the potential of the burgeoning automobile industry, Frederick transitioned the company from building horse-drawn carriages to manufacturing automobiles. In 1915, they introduced the Patterson-Greenfield car, which was comparable to the Ford Model T.
  3. Challenges and Legacy: Despite producing high-quality vehicles, the company struggled to compete with larger manufacturers like Ford. They eventually shifted focus to producing truck and bus bodies. The company continued to operate until the Great Depression, which led to its closure in 1939.

The legacy of C.R. Patterson & Sons is a testament to innovation and resilience in the face of adversity. If you want to know more about their specific models or other achievements,
