The area now known as Clayton was settled shortly before the American Revolution by Jacob Fisler, the son of a Swedish immigrant. Fisler's land grew to become known as Fislertown, later renamed Fislerville, and in 1864 was deemed Clayton. Jacob Fisler and his business partner, Benjamin Beckett, began the manufacturing of glass in this new town. Clayton's glassblowing industry has had many names, from Moore's to Pierce to Clevenger, and was the heart and soul of the community for well over 100 years. While some of Clayton's historic buildings have fallen victim to the hands of progress, many remain and are inhabited by new businesses, which grow and thrive in this small community. Much has changed in Clayton, yet it continues to be a proud community.
