Bradley, Walter Hubbard, and Orson and Chitten Hatch began in Meriden, Connecticut in 1852 as Bradley, Hatch & Company. Clocks were the sole product of the newly formed company.

By 1856, they were producing call bells and sewing machines, but clocks continued to be the main line of production. Many northern manufacturers prospered immensely during the Civil War due to the expanded market and their range of products. The discovery of oil in Pennsylvania in 1859 also had a great impact on their product line with the decision to begin production of kerosene burning lamps.

By 1871, kerosene virtually replaced whale oil for heating and illumination and innovative ways of burning it efficiently were considered necessary. Between 1868 and 1875, Bradley and Hubbard secured over 30 patents relating to the design and mechanics of oil burning lamps.
