Son of the founder of the Singer Sewing machine. His will became highly contested after his death, when he left a greater part of his estate to his nephews and his housekeeper, while cutting out his son and daughter. Ten years earlier, he advertised he would not be responsible for the debts of his then wife, Adelaide Small and later got an injunction preventing her from selling company shares.
