The relationship of the Froelich to John Deere comes the the Waterloo Boy. In 1892 John Froelich was experimenting with a tractor that ended up as the first successful gasoline powered, backward and forward driving tractor. After his success he went on to found the Waterloo Gasoline Traction Engine Company. That was the company that produced the Waterloo Boys, and is John Deere's Waterloo Works.

So you see that it isn't directly connected to Deere, but it is in the Deere family. Anyone interested in lost Waterloo Boy models like the "Sure Grip, Never Slip"?
