Patterson during his youth was educated in rural schools and learned the fundamentals of farming and tobacco manufacture under his father. In 1888 he went West and spent three interesting years of varied experience in the old Indian Territory. On returning to North Carolina he located at Mount Airy and was a tobacco manufacturer there until 1895, when he removed to Richmond, Virginia, and was connected with the tobacco industry in that city for a year. He then returned to Mount Airy and did business in that city until 1901, when he removed to Fayetteville and was a wholesale grocery merchant three years. In 1904 Mr. Patterson came to Greensboro and organized the Patterson Company, of which he has since been general manager." page 202, from History of North Carolina, Vol. VI, Lewis Publishing Company, Chicago and New York,1919.
