Cooper Industries was founded in 1833 by brothers Charles and Elias Cooper.
The company started as a foundry located in Mt. Vernon, Ohio, and was
initially called the C&E Cooper Company. Cooper’s initial product offerings
included plows, hog troughs, kettles and stoves. By the mid-nineteenth
century, the Company had shifted its focus to manufacturing steam engines
in hopes of leveraging the country’s growing trend towards rail
transportation. It was during this period that the Company developed the
Cooper Traction Engine, an innovation that is credited for helping to power
our nation’s move from an agrarian to an industrial society.
