High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Slater Mill Historic Site, also known as Slater Mill or Old Slater Mill, is located on the Blackstone River in Pawtucket, RI. It has been cited as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution in America, although an earlier horse-powered factory, the Beverly Cotton Manufactory, claimed the title of first cotton mill in America, making Slater Mill's citation questionable for the honor. Slater Mill is modelled after the mills in England where Samuel Slater, the mill's founder, had been apprenticed, as well as concept ideas founded at the Beverly Mill site by Moses Brown of Providence, Rhode Island and investors Thomas Somers and James Leonard from England. Brown's family was one of the major owners of Slater Mill, and a partial owner of the Beverly Mill. Slater Mill was built in 1793. It served as the first commercially viable water-powered roller cotton-spinning mill in the United States.
