Morehouse Appliances was originally founded as H.D. Morehouse in 1894 in Utica, NY. Founder, Henry D. Morehouse was a tradesman with skills as a tinsmith and blacksmith. As the automobile came into favor, his trade as a blacksmith diminished, the model "T" didn't use horse shoes. Concentrating on tinsmithing, he expanded into stove pipe, and selling coal and wood burning stoves. In later years other products offered included ice boxes, manufactured gas burning stoves, and gas & electric powered wringer washers.

Leslie H. Morehouse, the founder's son, operated the store from the time of his father's retirement, until his death in 1973. Leslie's son, Henry D. operated the store over the next 25 years, which is now run by Dan and Dave, the 4th generation of Morehouses.
