Henry Ford (July 30, 1863 – April 7, 1947) was the American founder of the Ford Motor Company and father of modern assembly lines used in mass production. He was known to be a Templar and therefore Abstergo industries takes credit of his achievements.

He was also known for his social theory: the Fordism, an idea to combine mass consumption with mass production to produce sustained economic growth and widespread material advancement. For that, he claimed to have raised his employees' pay to 5$ (from 2~3$ before), while actually giving them a pay cut, and made them believe the other way with the Piece of Eden (4) he received from Thomas Edison. After having it for years, Ford then sent it to Adolf Hitler supporting his anti-semitic ideas as suggested in the The International Jew published in The Dearborn Independent (a.k.a. The Ford International Weekly).
