AUTOMOBILE MAKER - FREDERICK PATTERSON
In 1915, Frederick Patterson took the bold step of co-founding the C.R. Patterson & Sons Company, building upon his father's legacy. Under his leadership, the company transitioned from producing horse-drawn carriages to manufacturing automobiles. This transition marked a significant moment in African American history, as the C.R. Patterson & Sons Company became one of the few Black-owned automobile manufacturers in the United States during the early 20th century.
One of Patterson's most notable achievements was the development of the Greenfield-Patterson automobile, a car that garnered praise for its quality and craftsmanship. These automobiles were known for their durability and advanced engineering, setting them apart in an industry dominated by larger, well-established companies. The Greenfield-Patterson automobile, manufactured from 1915 to 1918, was a symbol of African American excellence and innovation.
