1940  Voorhis Tiebout Soap dispenser/Red Hook N.Y. This came from an old auto dealership where I worked many years ago..It is mounted to a wooden block that attaches to the wall. It is in working order.. In 1941 the Voorhis Tiebout Company, owned by Gordon Voorhis, opened a soap factory built on the foundations of the school. From then on the building was known as the Red Hook Soap Factory. Gordon Voorhis was a colorful character around town in the 1940’s. Besides owning the soap factory, he was a keen breeder of Morgan horses. In fact, he was considered to be one of the best in the country. His breeding farm, Applevale Farm, was located on the property that is now Hardeman Orchards on route 199. Voorhis’ soap factory made soap grinding machines found in schools and public bathrooms nationwide.  If you are of a certain age, then you surely remember grinding the soap by turning the arm on the side of the grinder with one hand and catching the flakes as they fell out of the bottom of the grinder with the other.
