Henry Ford and Thomas Edison were good friends. So when Henry Ford decided to build his legacy, he wanted to move Menlo Park (Edison's labratory) onto the property. Edison told Ford that he could never move the lab to Michigan because it belonged on New Jersey soil. So, Ford had 32 traincars of New Jersey soil transfered to his property. Menlo Park then followed. Edison continued his practice for many years with the labratory in Menlo Parks new location.
