Description
Mary Ann Moore was one of the wives of "Black Bill" Walker. Here she stands beside a spinning wheel, this type called a high wheel, operated while standing and propelled by hand. The high wheel was used for spinning cotton and wool. A smaller low wheel was operated while seated using a foot-powered treadle and was mainly used for flax.
