Soon many other mills dotted New England. There are still a few mills operating in the original old buildings in Fall River, MA, but overall the mills are few and far between.


Who created the textile mills?

Francis Cabot Lowell built a cotton spinning and weaving mill in Waltham, Massachusets, USA during the war of 1812, based on his observations of British textile mills, he built the first factory to process raw cotton and produce finshed cloth under the same roof. Sir Richard Arkwright, (1732 - 92) pioneered the use of water and horse driven factories at Nottingham in England in 1769. In 1771 he moved to Derbyshire and was dominant in the early cotton industry. So the Brits win again.
