  • John Brown and George Kellogg
    John Brown and George Kellogg By Jean Luddy When most people think of John Brown, they remember the fiery abolitionist who attacked pro-slavery settlers in Kansas in 1855 and who led the raid on the Federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia in 1859 in order to spark a slave rebellion. Most people do not realize that Brown was no stranger to Vernon and Rockville, and that he worked for one of Rockville’s prominent 19th century citizens, George Kellogg. John Brown was born in Torrington, CT in 1800. His father was a staunch opponent of slavery and Brown spent his youth in a section of northern Ohio known as an abolitionist district. Before Brown became actively involved in the movement to eliminate slavery, he held a number of jobs, mainly associated with farming, land speculation and wool growing. (www.pbs.org) Brown’s path crossed with George Kellogg’s when Brown started to work for Kellogg and the New England Company as a wool sorter and buyer. John Brown George Kellogg, born on March 3, 1793 in Vernon, got his start in the woolen industry early in life when he joined Colonel Francis McLean in business in 1821. They established the Rock Manufacturing Company and built the Rock Mill, the first factory along the Hockanum River, in the area that would grow into the City of Rockville. Kellogg worked as the company’s agent from 1828 to 1837. At that time, he left the Rock Company to go into business with Allen Hammond. They founded the New England Company and built a factory along the Hockanum River.

  • The Historic Mills of North Andover
    The Historic Mills of North Andover: Local History at a Glance The mills at North Andover altered the history of the town forever. Beginning with the Scholfield Mill in 1802, North Andover grew to become one of many leading textile equipment manufacturers in Massachusetts. By the nineteenth century, four sites stood along Cochichewick Brook to facilitate the growth of the North Parish’s (incorporated as North Andover in 1855) woolen textile industry. During this period, the Stevens, later renamed Osgood, and Sutton Mills produced woolen textiles, while the Da- vis and Furber Machine Shop produced the machinery deployed in the manufacturing of those textiles. In the 1860s, Davis and Furber undertook rapid expansion as a result of the immense growth of the woolen industry during the Civil War period. In the backdrop of the war, the American woolen industry remarkably doubled in size. Even into the twentieth century, the companies located at the Cochichewick Brook sites provided North Andover with a formidable industrial business as well as a principal em- ployer. Scholfield Mill (1802) .The Scholfield/Sutton Mills are believed to be the oldest continuous woolen man- ufactory in the country .The Scholfield’s/Sutton Mills was the first woolen mill in North Andover .The mill was built in 1802 on Cochichewick by James Scholfield, originally con- sisting of a small building that stored a carding machine as well as a dwelling house which contained spinning jacks and looms operated entirely by man power .Early on the mill manufactured broadcloth which was one of the first fabrics made throughout the New England mills .In the early days of the mill, the spinning, carding and weaving were done mostly by the James Scholfield family .The Scholfield’s carding machine used at Sutton is said to be the third carding machine ever operated in the United States .William Sutton began to operate the mill in 1826 Stevens Mill (1813) .The idea for Stevens Mill began in 1813 with the creation of a partnership be- tween Captain Nathaniel Stevens, Dr.

    Abstract Fashioning Slavery: Slaves and Clothing in the U.S. South, 1830–1865 By Katie Knowles This dissertation examines such varied sources as Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Eastman Johnson’s genre paintings, runaway advertisements, published narratives, plantation records, the WPA ex-slave narratives, and nearly thirty items of clothing with provenance connections to enslaved wearers. The research presented in the following pages seeks to reveal the complexities surrounding clothing and slave life in the antebellum South by examining a variety of sources in combination. Enslaved people resisted race-based slavery by individualizing their appearance when working and when playing, but they were ultimately unsuccessful in resisting their exclusion from the race-based American fashion system. In bringing together previous scholarship on slavery in the American South, material culture, and fashion studies, this project reveals the deep connections between race and fashion in the antebellum United States. Enslaved people struggled against a racist culture that attempted to exclude them as valid participants in American culture. The individuality expressed by slaves through personalizing their clothing was a tactic of resistance against racism and race- based slavery. In many instances, enslaved people chose to acquire and dress in fashionable Euro-American clothing, a method of resistance because it was an attempt by them to disrupt the racially exclusionary fashion system of the antebellum United States. Though relatively few garments survive today, the voices of enslaved people and the records of their oppressors provide a rich narrative that helps deconstruct the many ways in which slaves encountered clothing. Clothing played an integral part in the daily life of enslaved African Americans in the antebellum South and functioned in multi-faceted ways across the antebellum United States to racialize and engender difference, and to oppress a variety of people through the visual signs and cues of the fashion system.

  • Mordansville
    MORDANSVILLE EDITOR’S NOTE: Today, there only exists a remnant of Mordansville which in the latter part of the 1800s and early 1900s had a large woolen mill, sawmill, blacksmith, general store, and small hotel. It is approximately three miles north of Bloomsburg, located a short distance on the east side of State Route 42. The Sands family, Joseph E. and his son, Charles L., were prominent participants in the village’s economic life. When raising sheep for wool was a big business with area farmers in the closing decades of the nineteenth century, Charles operated the largest woolen mill in Columbia County. In addition, voters elected both men to the office of Columbia County Commissioner; Joseph served one term from 1875 to 1878 and Charles’ term was 1890 to 1893. The following article comes from the W.P.A. Project No. 5175, 1936, Columbia County History, at Bloomsburg Public Library. The author is not identified. The person relied in part on information found in two histories of Columbia County: Bates, Samuel P. History of Columbia and Montour Counties. Chicago: A. Warner & Co., 1887 and Historical and Biographic Annals of Columbia and Montour Counties Pennsylvania. Chicago: J. H. Beers & Company, 1915. There are several editorial revisions to the article to correct spelling and grammar errors, sentence structure, and the inclusion of additional content for clarity purposes. * * * * * Mordansville, a small community along Little Fishing Creek in Mt. Pleasant Township, was named after John Mordan who settled in the area during the 1790s. When more settlers moved into the area he built a sawmill that gave rise to a village.1 Years later in 1856 Joseph E.

  • 265-267 North Main Street Contemporary Building Name: 265-267 North Main Street Historic Building Name: I
    Address: 265-267 North Main Street Contemporary Building Name: 265-267 North Main Street Historic Building Name: I. Allen House Present Use: Residential Historic Use: Residential Architectural style: Greek Revival / Italianate Date constructed: 1849 (Assessor) Description: In the three-bay gable end of the house which faces the street, the doorway to the south is framed by plain pilasters and entablature. The two windows to the north are full-height, 6-over-9, under peaked caps. The three second-floor 6-over-6 windows also have peaked caps. In the attic the peaked cap of the paired small windows is more pronounced than on the lower floors. A one-story wing is set back to the south. A porch in the angle of the L has an almost flat roof supported by turned posts and one sawn bracket. Two small 3-over-3 windows are under the eaves of the ell. Three more of these small windows appear on the north elevation, second floor. The property is 67.8 acres. Significance: The mixture of Greek Revival and Italianate features in the I. Allen House is consistent with its 1849 date of construction. By this mid-century year, the Greek Revival style was nearing the end of its epoch, while popularity of the Italianate was strong. Accordingly, in this house the plain Greek Revival doorway was present along with the peaked window caps characteristic of the Italianate, the whole in a Greek Revival temple-form three-bay front elevation, but without a Greek Revival pediment. The 1869 atlas (inset, Plate 2) identifies the textile enterprise at the northwest corner of North Main Street and Chapman Road as "Allen & Hanks Cotton Mill, Manf.s of Satinet Warp." The house at 265-267 North Main Street carries the name of I.
