    Notes:

    The Allan Hills Edge Tool Co. operated under that name between late 1909 and 1916. One reference to the Allan Hills Edge Tool Co. included a caveat that they were "Est. In 1844." That dating most likely referred to their earliest predecessor, The Galt Axe Co. Reports indicate that Allan Hills was listed as being active in Galt, Ontario, ca 1861. That activity primarily involved steel making but Hills may have had a secondary involvement in edge tool manufacturing. Hills may also have been involved with the Galt Axe Co. by sharing space with that company considerably before he, or the company bearing his name, actually acquired the company that had taken over the Galt Axe Co.
