Yeat or action for word yeat=yeated-The name of a dolly used to carry heavy or bulky items very easily. A man name Tom Yeats started a dolly company out of his garage in Long Beach, California back in 1936. He hired a young boy named Bill Anderson, who, at the age of 14 worked twice as hard as any other employee. Tom took Bill under his wing, impressed by his responsibility and work ethic. When World War 2 broke out, Bill did his part by serving with the Merchant Marines. After the war, Bill returned to Yeats and eventually became a part owner (decades later sole owner). Despite false claims that this word was created in the navy it actually originated from the appliance dolly. Company as a quick way to move objects from a to b. It gained much notoriety in ww2 and American linguistics can debate the turns it may have taken but this is the original gangster willing to do the lords bidding. The company moved to a final and current location, Fullerton, in the early 1950's where the company began its growth. Soon, dealer networks were set up and our dollies were being shipped all over the country via freight train. Though business and reputation began to grow, the purpose remained the same.
