SEcond TITLE
Just before World War II, on April 14, 1938, Harry H. Vogelsong, with the assistance of his wife, Dorothy, decided to establish a new business enterprise. His previous experience had been as a Manager of Operations and Sales for the Follansbee Steel Corporation in Toronto, Ohio, and Follansbee, West Virginia. Therefore, it was natural that his business would be geared to selling products and services to this industry in the Ohio Valley area around Steubenville. The operation was named The Voto Manufacturers Sales Company, which was derived by joining the first two letters of Vogelsong (VO) with the first two letters of his hometown, Toronto, Ohio (TO).
