Tremont and Suffolk Mills.

The Tremont Mills and Suffolk Manufacturing Co., originally separate entities, were both founded in 1831. In 1871 businessman and industrialist Federick Ayer, with is brother James C. Ayer, purchased a controlling interest in the Tremont Mills and the Suffolk Manufacturing Co. of Lowell, Mass. The Ayer brothers consolidated the companies to form the Tremont and Suffolk Mills. The company manufactured jeans, cotton flannels, shirtings and print cloth. Tremont and Suffolk Mills was absorbed by the Nashua Manufacturing Company in the early 20th century.
