BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY
Winchester, Oliver Fisher (Nov. 30, 1810 - Dec. 11, 1880), manufacturer, was born in Boston, Mass., the son of Samuel and Hannah (Bates) Winchester. He was a descendant in the fifth generation of John Winchester who was admitted freeman in Brookline in 1637. His boyhood was a difficult one, for the early death of his father threw Winchester on his own resources when he was very young, and by the time he was twenty years old he had worked on farms in various parts of New England, learned the carpenter's and joiner's trades, and clerked in stores. Between 1830 and 1837 he was employed in construction work in Baltimore, Md., and then opened a men's clothing store there, a feature of which was the manufacture and sale of shirts. In 1847 he sold this business to engage in the jobbing and importing business with John M. Davies in New York City. The partners also began the manufacture of shirts by a new method invented and patented by Winchester on Feb. 1, 1848, and were so successful that about 1850 they established a new factory in New Haven, Conn. Winchester took entire charge and in five years accumulated an appreciable fortune. Meanwhile, he had become a heavy stockholder in the Volcanic Repeating Arms Company of New Haven and through his stock purchases became by 1856 the principal owner. In 1857 he brought about its reorganization as the New Haven Arms Company, with himself as president. The company had inherited the repeating-rifle inventions of Jennings, Tyler Henry, and Horace Smith and D. B. Wesson, as well as the services of Henry as superintendent of the factory. For the first few years Winchester manufactured repeating rifles and pistols, and gave Henry every opportunity to experiment on the improvement of both products, as well as of ammunition. The result was that in 1860 he began the production of a new repeating rifle, using a new rim-fire copper cartridge, which came to be known as the Henry rifle. Although it was primarily a sporting gun, it was privately purchased and used considerably during the Civil War by entire companies and regiments of state troops. It was by far the best military rifle of the time but was not adopted by the federal government. In 1866 Winchester purchased the patent of Nelson King for loading the magazine through the gate in the frame. When this invention was incorporated in the Henry rifle, a new firearm, the Winchester rifle, came into existence. Winchester then reorganized the New Haven Arms Company as the Winchester Repeating Arms Company, and established a factory at Bridgeport, Conn. In 1870 he erected a permanent plant in New Haven. From its first appearance the Winchester rifle was very popular, and Winchester built up an extremely successful business, augmenting it through the purchase of the patents and property of the American Repeating Rifle Company in 1869 and of the Spencer Repeating Rifle Company in 1870. In 1876 he purchased the invention of Benjamin B. Hotchkiss [q.v.] of the bolt-action repeating rifle, and after making necessary improvements added this to the products of his company. Finally, in 1879, he purchased the mechanism invented by John M. Browning [q.v.], but the resulting Winchester single-shot rifle incorporating this invention was not produced until several years after Winchester's death.

Winchester served as councilman in New Haven in 1863, and the following year was presidential elector at large for Lincoln. In 1866 he was elected lieutenant governor of Connecticut on the ticket with Gov. Joseph R. Hawley. His philanthropies were many; in particular, he made generous gifts to Yale University. He married Jane Ellen Hope of Boston on Feb. 20, 1834, and at the time of his death in New Haven was survived by his widow and two children.
