I first checked the manual that came with the machine to see if there might be some sort of publishing date that could clue me in on the date of manufacturing. I’m not sure why this is, perhaps due to some english translation that happened at some point? But the city is actually called Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu. I should make a quick note here that a lot of singer documentation online around serial number prefixes does not use the city name Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu but instead uses St. I already know from my previous research that the 15-91 was manufactured from 19, and that the ‘JB’ prefix on my serial code indicates it was made in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec between 1936 - 1948. I was told by the family that my machine is from 1936 but I was curious if I could actually verify this date with the serial number. As I mentioned in my previous post, you can use the serial number on your machine to try to figure out where/when you machine was manufactured.
