James
A Farndale, born 1 September 1911, general labourer
In
1760 England, yarn production from wool, flax and cotton was still a cottage
industry in which fibres were carded and spun by hand using a spinning wheel.
As the textile industry expanded its markets and adopted faster machines, yarn
supplies became scarce especially due to innovations such as the doubling of
the loom speed after the invention of the flying shuttle. High demand
for yarn spurred invention of the spinning jenny in 1764, followed closely by
the invention of the spinning frame, later developed into the water frame
(patented in 1769). Mechanisms had increased production of yarn so dramatically
that by 1830 the yarn cottage industry in England could no longer compete and
all spinning was carried out in factories.
