Josiah Fay, a wheelwright, lived in different parts of Vt. and N.H. until 1831, when he invented a machine known as "Fay, Fisher & Co.'s tenonning [sic] machine." In partnership with two of his wife's brothers, he carried on the manufacture of these machines for many years in Lancaster, Mass. Cf. Fay, O.P. Fay genealogy, 1898, p. 137.
The American Antiquarian Society copy is accompanied by a ms. letter from Fay dated Hollis, Hillsbrough [County], N.H., April 23, 1831, addressed to Martin Van Buren, secretary of state, concerning patent rights for the tenoning machine.
Probably printed in nearby Nashua, N.H.
