Friedrick Henry Royce was born in Alwalton in England in 1863. His family used to run a wheat flour mill. But it didn't see good sales. That's why they shifted to London. Friedrick was just 9 when his father breathed his last.
Thus, to keep his household moving, Friedrick had to do part time jobs like selling newspapers and distributing telegrams.
After growing up, with the help of his aunt, he went to a town in England and began working in the Northern Railway. After few years, he returned back to London and joined a Light and power company where his work was to work with the street lights. In this way he had saved some of his income.
In 1884, with one of his friends, he opened a start up named FH Royce and company. This company made small electric parts. After ten years, the company had started making Dynamo generators and other good equipments.
