In his early years, he was engaged in the manufacture of mustard. In 1845, he built a small foundry below Whittenton Mills for casting stoves and small wares. A few years later his son, Lemuel M. Leonard, was associated with him and enlarged the foundry. Lemuel M.

In 1877, the Leonard Co-operative Foundry Company was organized in 1877 and reorganized in 1891 under the name of the New England Stove Company.
