Born on July 30, 1863 in Dearborn during the Civil War. He grew up with an interest in mechanical things as a farm boy and as an electric power plant operator for the Edison Electric Company in Detroit. He built a one cylinder engine, running it over the kitchen sink with his wife, Clara Bryant Ford, acting as the carburetor with a eye-dropper filled with gasoline. He built an early race car that beat the premier racer of the day. Three times he organized a company to manufacture automobiles for sale. Twice the companies failed, but on the third try he sold his first car just as the company was running out of money.
