In the fall of 1791, Washington learned of the newly patented automated milling system invented by Oliver Evans. Evans received U.S. Patent #3 for his groundbreaking system, which moved wheat and flour throughout the mill without the need of manual labor. Washington purchased a license for the patent and had the milling system installed in his gristmill. Today, this milling system is faithfully interpreted, fully-functioning, and open to guests on a seasonal basis.
The watermill, the earliest machine harnessing natural forces (apart from the sail) and as such holding a special place in the history of technology, was invented by Greek engineers sometimebetween the 3rd and 1st centuries BC.
