Description: |
"My improvement is a shingle-machine constructed on a new plan, so far as the feed and set works are concerned. The feed-works are arranged so as to feed slow when feeding the bolt to the saw, and fast when carrying the bolt back, after the shingle is sawed off."A genealogical posting on rootsweb.com indicates that the inventor was 41 years old in 1880, was married to Mary (nee Newton), was a machinist, and was born in Ohio. They had a 13 year old daughter, Celeste E. (born in Wisconsin), an 8 year old daughter, Grace (also born in Wisconsin), and a 6 year old daughter, Ada (born in Minnesota). |
