He brought the textil industrualization model from the UK when he inmigrated to the US, by copying the designs of the textile factory machinery where he worked as apprentice in the UK, adapting such designs to the characteristics of the new location.

He developed the first cotton mills in the US and ended up founding a very powerful family business there.
