A modification of the spinning jenny, these machines were equipped with spindles mounted on an enlarged moving portion of the machine, rather than on a stationary frame. The modern spinning machine is often considered to be a power-driven instantiation of these manually-operated devices. The first reference to this device is thought to be in approximately 1802, when James Scholfield installed the spinning machine in his North Andover textile mill. ]]></termNote><termCreatedDate>2026-03-30 20:45:00</termCreatedDate><relation><relationType>UF</relationType><termId>31422211</termId><termName>spinning jack</termName><termType>ND</termType></relation><relation><relationType>UF</relationType><termId>31482460</termId><termName>spinning-jack</termName><termType>ND</termType></relation><relation><relationType>UF</relationType><termId>31482461</termId><termName>wool-spinning jack</termName><termType>ND</termType></relation><relation><relationType>BT</relationType><termId>31353962</termId><termName>textile fabricating tools and equipment</termName><termType>PT</termType></relation><relation><relationType>RT</relationType><termId>31353949</termId><termName>spinning jennies</termName><termType>PT</termType></relation></term>  </Zthes>
