Notes for RIELY ROOT:
Riley Root in Knox County bios:

Riley Root helped build the first house in Galesburg. He was an
excellent mechanic
and an inventor, whose name still exists in the old patent-rights
records
at Washington. Among his inventions were that of a machine to clear
railroad tracks of snow, also a process for clarifying sorhum-cane
juice,
which was considered the greatest invention of the day. His invention
for
leveling railroad tracks was also patented. Among other things, he made
a
fine toned violin which he afterwards sold in Galeburg to a prominent
musician. In connection with this, it must not be omitted to state that
in
early times the father of Mrs. Hinckley, in his first efforts to gain
success, cut out millstones in his own house and erected a horse mill to
grind corn. The mill was used by the settlers of Knox county and was the
earliest among those known before water or steam mills.
