| - John Deere was born February 7th 1804, in a small town of Ruthland,Vermont. After a meager education, he was apprenticed in 1821 at age 17, to Captain Benjamin Lawrence, a prosperous Middlebury blacksmith, and entered the trade for himself in 1825. He married in 1827, and fathered nine children. But as he was having trouble with creditors, Deere's business suffered. Facing bankruptcy, Deere sold the shop to his father-in-law and departed for Illinois. Deere was known for being the one of the only blacksmiths that wore overalls. When he went into town people recognized him due to the fact that he wore overalls, green and yellow plaid shirt, also cowboy boots and hat.
