A couple of years ago I posted about an 1888 issue of the
Scientific American that I found at a flea market. A couple of months ago I was lucky enough to find a
patent belonging to my great-grandfather published in an 1866 issue of the Scientific American. So I thought I had better get busy and post these illustrated inventions from the issue I have. Someone might be looking for them.

I found Mr. John T. Moxley in the 1870 census. He was listed as a farmer. I am guessing he had a rodent problem.
