Description: |
| Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. Little is known about this patent. Only the patent drawing is available. This patent is in the database for reference only.
“For a Machine for Spinning Wool, for the use of families and manufacturing establishments; Warren Allen, New Haven, Oswego county, New York, August 15.
The description of this machine is of considerable length, but appears to us to be laboured and involved, whilst the drawings which accompany it, lend but little aid in understanding its construction. The machine, like most of the family spinners, seems to possess but little novelty; there are many such instruments, but they are generally only epitomes of those of a larger kind.
There is no claim whatever, and, of course, the whole machine must be new, or the patent of no value”.
