I removed the link to the company website to avoid the "commercial" aspect of the information. The historical aspect is as follows:

It is a fact that the company Red Devil, Inc. is 136 year old now and family run. It was originally lured to a small New Hampshire town (Hill, NH)in 1872, [] and owned by a man named Frank Woodward, who ran the factory making sewing needles, glass cutters, and other items. Company was purchased by Landon P. Smith and renamed Red Devil Tools.

He rebuilt the factory after a fire in 1879, and 1910 He built a sizable dam which provided hydroelectric power to the town and the factory. In 1918 the dam failed, flooded the town in the first on many floods. Eventually the townsfolk voted to have the Army Corp of Engineers move the town to a new location in 1937 above a new dam that was built to control the flood water runoff from the White mountains.

Mr. Woodward moved as well and started anew in the relocated Hill Village running the town's water company. Details and photos to be found in the publication: Hill Village on the Pemigewasset, published by the Hill Historical Society in 1991
