Smith & Dove Co.
text:
The Smith & Dove Co. spun flax into thread and twine for products such as shoes, sail cloth and carpets in mills in Andover, Massachusetts, from 1864 until 1927, when the company was sold to Ludlow Manufacturing. Smith & Dove was notable for the philanthropy of two of its founders, brothers Peter and John Smith. The latter was an ardent abolitionist and member of the group who started Andover’s Free Christian Church on a principle of “biblical justice” and freedom for all people.
