Can't tell you about that but Ontario became part of McConnell Corp. of Prattsburg, NY in the Southwestern part of the Finger Lakes. Strictly guessing I would say this happened in the 1960's. Mc Connell was a shortliner that had springtooth harrows, cultivators, potato equipment, and I want to say dumpboxes. They also imported tractors that they in turn relabeled under their own brands (compacts). They had been in decline for a couple decades and finally dissolved a few years ago. Interesting company in my part of the country. Hopefully, somebody can expand upon this. Used to be lots of Ontario/ Mc Connell drills around here.
