Ames, Nathan P.

Nathan P. Ames founded a cutlery business in Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts in 1829 which among other things provided a large number of swords by contract to the United States government. The business relocated to Cabotville in 1834 and added a foundry which furnished most of the brass cannon for the United States army, as well as casting statues.
