actually goes back a lot further. Rollin White organized Cletrac
Corp in 1916. White was formed about 1890 by Rollin's father and
had been making sewing machines and steam cars.</p>

<div id="style_15736577260000384560_BODY">The list of the
truck brands taken over by White is also long. A couple of
them survive. About 69 or 70, I interviewed at Euclid, the
construction equipment manufacturer owned by White.<br>
<br>
About 7 years back I was in email contact with Mr.
Cockshutt who worked for the same Toronto area
headquartered multinational I did. He blamed family
members selling their Cockshutt stock to outsiders.<br>
<br>
Around 93, I was invited to apply at a VolvoWhiteGMC
stamping plant in Ohio as part of a last ditch effort to
make it competitive, but declined. It is closed now.<br>

[Howard Pletcher] In 1960,
the <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Motor_Company">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Motor_Company</a> entered
the agriculture market with the purchase of
the <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Farm_Equipment_Company">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Farm_Equipment_Company</a>.
In 1962, White acquired
the <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockshutt_Farm_Equipment">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockshutt_Farm_Equipment</a> Company

1963 with the acquisition
of <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minneapolis-Moline">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minneapolis-Moline</a>.<br>
In 1969, Oliver, Minneapolis-Moline and Cockshutt were
merged to form White Farm Equipment with headquarters
in <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oak_Brook,_Illinois">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oak_Brook,_Illinois</a>;
White Motor Corporation's headquarters remained
in <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland,_Ohio">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland,_Ohio</a>. Six
years later, Oliver, Minneapolis-Moline and Cockshutt were
