William Bloor founded Bloor, Ott & Booth in 1863 which operated under that name until 1865.  Then the company became known as Ott, Brewer & Bloor from 1865-t0 1870.  Then, in 1870 in the hopes of capitalizing on the popularity of English ironstone and earthenware, the factory was named Etruria Works and the company was known as Etruria Pottery & Co. (of Ott & Brewer Co.).  This company was in operation until 1893.
