[edit] Slatersville
Technically, Slatersville (a village in the present-day town of North Smithfield) was named after Samuel Slater's son John, who either owned or managed the mill that Slatersville was created for. Slatersville was the first planned mill village in the United States.
The History of North Smithfield by Walter Nebiker may be an important resource for any/all discussion of Slatersville.
- For ease, I've removed the reference to Slatersville in the article. Thanks for the correction. If the village really was the first planned mill village, perhaps it deserves its own article, which can be referenced back to Slater Mill? (I haven't checked if there is an article already) --CPAScott 13:57, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Samuel Slater ( no pictures!)
