Henry Ford

by Megan from Innisfil


My hero is Henry Ford. I chose Henry Ford because he invented the moving industrial production line. Henry Ford was born July 30th 1863 in Dearborn, Michigan. Henry Ford married Clara Bryant. They got married in 1888. They had one child named Edsel Bryant Ford. Edsel Bryant died at age 49. Henry Ford died April 7, 1947 in Dearborn, Michigan.

Henry Ford realized he needed a more efficient way to mass produce cars in order to lower the price. The company began selling his famous Model T for 850 dollars each. The famous Ford Model T automobile ended production in 1927.

Henry Ford is my hero because if we didn't have the assembly-line we would not have cars to ride in.
