Anderson, Clayton And Company
Anderson, Clayton and Company (sometimes written Anderson, Clayton and Co) was a cotton trading firm started in Oklahoma City by Frank Anderson, Monroe Anderson and William Clayton. These three men formed a partnership on August 1, 1904. The company moved to Houston early in the 20th Century because that city was gaining on Galveston for the title of Cotton Capital of the U.S. after the near-complete destruction of that port by the 1900 Galveston hurricane, and on account of Houston's rapidly expanding shipping facilities.

History The company was created as a partnership on August 1, 1904, by Monroe Dunaway (M. D.) Anderson, his brother Frank E. Anderson and Frank's brother-in-law William L. "Will") Clayton. In 1916, the company moved to Houston, Texas in order t ...
