Hubbard, Theodore S.–(1843-1906)–Fredonia,
New York–was born in Cameron, New York. He was an alumnus of Alfred
University. He was a leading grape grower and authority on grapes
in the world. He established the T. S. Hubbard Co. in Fredonia, NY
in 1866. The company was incorporated in 1887. The company
sold grape vines and small fruits. In 1901 they had over 100 acres
planted. They were the first nursery to make the growing of native
American grape vines a specialty. Their business extended to every
state in the union and to foreign countries as well. He drafted the
constitution of the Association of American Nurserymen and was its chief
executive twice. In 1899 he severed his connection with the T. S.
Hubbard Co.
