Interesting Anecdote: The builder of the Saundersville Mill, Dave Wilkinson, was a master inventor, but a terrible businessman. He was the brother-in-law of Samuel Slater, having married his sister, Hanna. He went bankrupt and the Slater family called in its notes and took over the first mill in Sutton (Wilkinson Village). The Saundersville Mill was taken over by the bank. Wilkinson was later acclaimed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineering, the "father of the American machine tool industry." (Additional note: Wilkinson built a steam boat that traveled from Providence to Pawtucket fourteen years before Fulton demonstrated his steam boat. Source: "Two American Geniuses", Harvard Library)
