Notes:
Lewis Downing, the son of a wheelwright in Lexington, MA, became a world renown maker of coaches. His story, taken from the liner notes of a recording by The Shaw Brothers entitled "The Ballad of the Concord Coach" is reproduced below:
"The story of the Concord Coach is one of the great romances in American history. It began with the love of a lad for a lass and evolved into one of the major technological innovations in the development of transportation. Born in Lexington, Mass, June 23, 1792, Lewis Downing learned the wheelwright trade from his father and became highly skilled in the use of woodworking tools. At the age of 21, he traveled to New Hampshire to see his fiancee, Lucy Wheelock, who was visiting an aunt in Concord. He decided to stay and, before long established himself in the wagon manufacturing business. By 1825, Concord had become the hub of northern New England's stage transportation. It was, therefore, natural for Downing to perceive the need for a better stage coach for the multitudes of travelers and volume of mail contracts stretching forever away from the coach. He met this challenge with the help of J. Stephens Abbot and after 1828 the firm bearing the names of these two gentlemen blazed a trail around the world with the finest of travel facilities the Concord Coach. 'No American product ever gained a wider patronage, ever gave a better service or redounded more magnificently to the credit of its native state than the Concord Coach. The name Abbot-Downing on such a vehicle not only meant that the eye of its maker had never left it from its inception to its delivery, but that out of the paint pots and design books in his factory there emerged a thing of such splendor that it required no other trademark to give it a world-reputation for almost a full century.'"
