Description

It all started when "The Waterbury Button Company" was founded in 1812 by Aaron Benedict in Waterbury, Connecticut. When the "War of 1812" interrupted the supply of buttons from England, he began by melting down pewter pots and pans in order to make buttons for military uniforms. After 22 years of manufacturing under frequently changing partnership agreements, the firm took on a general partner, Gordon W. Burnham, and the name of the company changed to "Benedict & Burnham" in 1834.
