Default JA numbers

I'm cleaning and oiling an Elgin 2468 that has been setting on the shelf since I bought it last year. (I need more machines for the kids quilting class.)

The JA numbers are JA27 and JA13 then the letters HI. I looked it up on the Yahoo Vintage Japanese list, and on JA 27, it says White and on JA 13, it says Koyo. Is Koyo a city or a manufacturer?

Just curious.
