That article about Webster on ISMACS refers to a letter written in the 1850's, and the Webster talked about in that letter probably bears little relation to the Webster name that is on these modern machines.

vannessaodom,
Your Webster machine is a post WW II badged HA-1 / 15 clone. It is an original electric machine.
I uses Class 15 bobbins and 15x1 needles.
With a good cleaning and oiling, a proper belt and some repair to the case it should sew really nice stitches.

that last picture looks like one made by National.
The three sewing machines pictured in this thread have little in common other than the "Webster" name on them.
