C. H. Vorhes, Designer/Draftsmen. - Carriage Monthly April 1904.

C. H. Vorhes, (born 1852, Detroit, Michigan) superintendent and draftsman with the La Porte (Indiana) Carriage Co., was born near Detroit, Michigan, in 1852. He became an apprentice December 7, 1871, and remained nine years. Instead of going West, as was then the custom among young men, he went to New York, and was engaged by Brewster & Co., and later on by Charles S. Caffrey Co., Camden, New Jersey.

He also was employed by Holcomb Bros. and Henry Killam & Co., New Haven, Connecticut. From 1883 to 1886 he held the position of draftsman and superintendent in the establishment of L. Glesenkamp, Sons & Co., Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. He also worked for the Kalamazoo Buggy Co. and for C. R. & J. C. Wilson, Detroit, Michigan. In September, 1896, he was engaged with the La Porte Carriage Co. as superintendent and draftsman, and is still there.

Da taucht kein F. auf, dafür ein S. Ich würde es entweder auf Charles F. Caffrey Company gemäß Kimes oder auf Charles Caffrey Carriage Company gemäß coachbuilt (erste Zeile) verschieben. --Buch-t (Diskussion) 11:17, 15. Okt. 2017 (CEST)

Das kann ein einfacher Übertragungsfehler sein (dann wohl bei Kimes), oder "F." und "S." sind Vater und Sohn. Wir wissen ja nicht genau, wann das Unternehmen gegründet wurde. Dann wäre die coachbuilt-Variante sinnvoller.--Chief tin cloud • Im Zweifel für den Artikel 11:47, 15. Okt. 2017 (CEST)

Ich werde es also bei Gelegenheit nach Charles Caffrey Carriage Company verschieben. --Buch-t (Diskussion) 16:11, 21. Okt. 2017 (CEST)
