From 1855-1895 Wocher’s shop was located on the premise of Ohio Medical College. In 1870 Max Wocher brought his son into the firm, which then began the Max Wocher & Son Co. In 1883 Max Wocher died and in 1885 the company was passed to partners Max Schmidt and Henry Hoeller. Wocher’s company became known as the “oldest house in the west” and dominated the instrument trade during its time. The company was sold in 1992.
