An 1892 patent plate makes it a D-9. D9 machines were patented in 1892 when the bobbin case area was improved.? And they started making them around 1895.?

Just recently joined the group while trying to help an Amish family identify their machine and obtain parts.? The serial number is 2791561 with patent dates of 1888, 1890 and? 1892.? Most the decals are worn off but we can see where a large 9 used to be on the machine.? The owners need a bobbin cover plate and needles.? From what I've looked up the substitute 127 x 1 needles should work.?? Anyone have any other information or recommendations?? Thanks.
