Co owner of Sutton Mills in Andover:
"About 1789 the era of woollen manufacture's began in New England. The Federal Government being established on a firm foundation, capitalists directed their attention to the encouragement of home manufactures, and emigrants from the old country sought in the United States an opportunity to become rich and influential, as they might be, by connect- ing their skilled labor with American capital. Among the emigrants were the brothers, Arthur, John, and James Scholfield. The Dame of Arthur Scholfield is famous in the history of woollen manufactures. He made, and in part invented, carding machines superior to any then known in the country. He constructed them from his remembrance of those in England, with the aid of some pieces which be succeeded in smuggling. He set a machine in operation in the mill at Byfield, under management of the first incorporated manufacturing company in New England. He afterward went with his patron, Mr. Samuel Slater, to Pittsfield, and there rnade the first fine broadcloth in the country. The Scholfields bought land at North Andover, and mill-privileges on the Cochichawick, and on the Shawshin, near its junction with the Merrimack. At the latter place, Stephen Poor had had a clothing-mill about 1800. James Scholfield set up one of the improved carding-machines made by his brother Arthur Scholfield, and carried on the business of making fine woollen goods in a small wooden building on the Cochichawick. He did a considerable business, and his mill was made use of by the country people around, to get their wool carded for domestic spinning and weaving, as well as to furnish fine goods. But be lacked the capital needed to carry on the manufacture extensively, and in 1812 he sold out his business and engaged to manage the mills erected by Mr. Nathaniel Stevens at the mill-privilege further up the stream. Messrs. Abel and Paschal Abbot, of Andover (South Parish), bought the mill-privilege, land and buildings, of Jarnes and Arthur Scholfield, and, erecting a larger mill, carried on the manufacturing about a year, and then sold (1813) to Abraham Marland and Isaac Osgood, who, after a year, sold to Samuel Ayer. In 1826, the property fell, by foreclosure of a mortgage (Samuel Ayer having failed, become deeply involved in debt, and quitted the town) to Mr. William Sutton, of Danvers. In this mill of Mr. Marland, and in other early mills of the Andovers, it was the custom for the wives and daughters of the managers and owners to work, just as it had been for them to spin or weave, or perform domestic service, in their homes. From the foregoing, it appears that among the first woollen manufactures with the improved machinery that marked the beginning of the era of New England manufactures, was that undertaken by the inventors of the machinery at North Andover, in what is now known as the district of Sutton's Mills on the Cochichawick, near its junction with the Merrimack."
[Bailey, S.L., Historical Sketches of Andover, Massachusetts, 585-586]"As was said, the original movers in the enterprise abandoned it. Samuel Ayer failed, and the mill did not wholly prosper until it passed into the hands of its present owners. Mr. William Sutton, being a gentleman of ample fortune, as well as of great business activity and judgment, at once revived the woollen manufactures in the mill which had fallen into his hands. He put in power-looms, which had largely supplanted the band-looms in the progress of manufactures, and had effected a revolution in the mills throughout the country. Mr. Sutton was a resident of Danvers, president of the bank, and otherwise of large business connections, but he kept constant oversight of the mill, and by his wise management insured the success of the business. At his death, in 1832, he left this flourishing business in charge of his sons, Mr. William Sutton and Mr. Eben Sutton.
