JOHN ROBBINS & SONS, Eagle Woolen Mills, Canton. The Eagle Woolen Mills, now owned and operated by James and John Robbins, Jr., is the outgrowth of one of Canton's oldest manufacturing institutions. John Robbins, Sr., (retired) was born in Gloucestershire. England, in 1807. His father was a manufacturer of woolen goods, in which business he soon became thoroughly skilled, and, after which, he, in 1830, emigrated to the United States. For about ten years he spent his time principally in the fae- tories of the Eastern States. In 1842, he returned to England, and married Miss Martha Marshall, of Yorkshire. Returning to America, they became residents of Ohio, in 1842, and in 1843, they removed to Canton, when Mr. Robbins leased a woolen factory of Mr. F. A. Snyder, for five years. He then leased a building of Jacob Sprankle. in which he did business for about thirteen years, when his business was suddenly stopped by the building and all its contents being destroyed by fire. By this misfortune, Mr. Robbins lost $30.000, which was the accumulated earnings of years. Applying to the citizens of Canton. Mr. Robbins quickly found friends to advance him $20,000. With this sum he built the Eagle Woolen Mills, and business was again resumed in his name, but was afterward changed to Robbins & Miller, who organized the Eagle Woolen Mills Company. They in turn were superseded by John, Jr., and James Robbins, under the firm name of Robbins Bros. The mill is now fitted up with two sets of forty-eight inch cards. One self-operating Englisli mule of 408 spindles, and one hand mule of 360 spindles. They have a capacity of using 350 pounds of wool per day. and employ about twenty operatives. They are now making a specialty of the manu- facture of stocking yarns. John, the elder of

the two brothers, was educated in the Canton schools, and learned his trade with his father. In 1876, he went to Denver, Colorado, expect- ing to engage in the manufacturing business in that State. Becoming satisfied that the invest- ment would not be a judicious one, he went to Georgetown, of that State, where, upon the opening of the Merchants' Bank of that town, he took the position of cashier. Six months later, when their charter was changed to the Merchants' National Bank, he still retained his position. In the winter of 1878. his health became so poor as to oblige him to resign, after which he returned to Canton. He has made two trips to Europe : first, in 1872, and again in 1874.

The name of Rex is of English origin, and so far back as the genealogy of the family may be traced, Mr. Rex is a descendant of one of four brothers who emigrated from England, one of whom settled in the South, and the other three in Pennsylvania. A tracement of the line of descent shows Mr. Rex to be a descendant of the one of these brothers who settled in North- ampton, Penn. The father of John P., Mr. Jacob Rex, became a resident of Canton as early as 1815. He at once engaged in the busi- ness of tailoring, which he conducted for many years.
