macy's was founded by rowland hussey macy, who between 1843 and 1855 opened four retail dry goods stores, including the original macy's store in downtown haverhill, massachusetts, established in 1851 to serve the mill industry employees of the area. they all failed, but he learned from his mistakes. macy moved to new york city in 1858 and established a new store named "r. h. macy & co." on sixth avenue between 13th and 14th streets, which was far north of where other dry goods stores were at the time. on the company's first day of business on october 28, 1858 sales totaled $11.08, equal to $ today. from the beginning, macy's logo has included a star, which comes from a tattoo that macy got as a teenager when he worked on a nantucket whaling ship, the "emily morgan".
