By the age of 19, "Florence" Kroeber began to work in the clock store of Owen & Clark at John Street (NYC) as a bookkeeper. In 1864, Florence Kroeber took over the Owen business. About 1870 Kroeber began to manufacture some cases of his own design and contracted with Connecticut manufacturers for movements, some to his own specifications. For over 25 years the operation was successful. It was incorporated as the F. Kroeber Clock Company in 1887. This business ended in bankruptcy in January, 1904 and because it was not a corporation, Kroeber was personally ruined. All measurements are approximate. Photos are part of the description.
