- This is because it started off life as a Wheeler & Wilson model D9. After Singer bought the Wheeler & Wilson company in 1905 they kept production of the D9 going at the Bridgeport factory, but badged the machines as Singer model 9W.
- D-9 Sewing Machine.
In 1905, the Wheeler and Wilson Co. Was taken over by Singer. The D9 was well-established in the market and its new parents weren't going to turn down sales, so production was switched to Elizabethport; probably because it was the only W&W domestic that they inherited and the New Jersey factory was the centre of Singer's domestic production.

I have a friend who has bought a Wilson & Wheeler machine. It says D-9 and the serial # is 2599102. She is in bad need of the instruction manual for it. If anyone has it She is willing to pay for it. Please let me know if you can help out. Thanks in advance.
After considerable study and expense the company have launched upon the somewhat overcrowded sewing machine market a new invention called the No.9, which for its many merits deserves and will no doubt receive, a large share of public patronage. The Wheeler & Wilson Company long since came to the conclusion that the rotary movement is the true mechanical principle for manufacturing machines and most experts hold that this is also true as regards family machines. The Company, as is well known, have always been in favour of the rotary principle and apparently intend to stand by it. The stitch-forming mechanism of the No.9 is, therefore, similar to that of the No.8, D10 and No.12, but, as distinct from the No.8, there is no vibrating arm, two revolving shafts being used, an upper and lower, the driving pulley being attached to the former and the machine constructed on the high-arm principle. The take-up is unusually short and is placed just over the needle on the head block. The thread controller is thoroughly automatic in action and comprises several decided improvements, which contribute to the production of a stitch which is simply perfection. The driving wheel revolves in a reverse direction to the No.8.
