KC, here are links to the International Antique Sewing Machine Forum, their wiki page on New Home machines,  along with a photo gallery (with some info) of New Home machines.

Also a page showing serial numbers and corresponding dates found on the International Sewing Machine Collectors' Society New Home page.

Hope these help lead to some answers.
