PROCTER & GAMBLE

Neither William Procter nor James Gamble ever intended to settle in Cincinnati. Although the city was a busy center of commerce and industry in the early nineteenth century, William, emigrating from England, and James, arriving from Ireland, were headed farther west.


Despite their intentions, however, both men ended their travels when they arrived at the Queen City of the WestWilliam took care of his ailing wife, Martha, who soon died, and James sought medical attention for himself.

William Procter quickly established himself as a candlemaker. James Gamble apprenticed himself to a soapmaker. The two might never have met had they not married sisters, Olivia and Elizabeth Norris, whose father convinced his new sons-in-law to become business partners. In 1837, as a result of Alexander Norris' suggestion, a bold new enterprise was born: Procter & Gamble.
