Abstract	Rocky Mount Mills, located in Rocky Mount, N.C., was one of the first cotton mills constructed in the state of North Carolina, dating back to 1816. From 1825 to 1883, the Battle family maintained ownership of the mill. As the southern cotton industry grew after the Civil War, the cotton mill experienced rapid growth. The company also supported a residential village for employees, which was eventually incorporated into the city of Rocky Mount in the 1920s. The mill was a major supplier of cotton yarn to the United States Army during World War II. The general decline in southern textile industry beginning in the 1970s eventually impacted Rocky Mount Mills, and the mill closed its doors in 1996. The collection consists of correspondence, contracts, reports, tax returns, receipts, ledgers, and other materials related to the construction, operation, and closure of Rocky Mount Mills in Rocky Mount, N.C. Included are deeds and other documents relating to the original purchases of land around the Tar River by the mill's founders, the construction and expansion of Rocky Mount Mills, and the changes in ownership and investment in the mill. Also included are ledgers and other account books documenting various mill transactions. Materials relating to investments include correspondence and wills dictating the sale of Rocky Mount Mills stock to and from individual investors; documents relating to securities held by Rocky Mount Mills; and chattel mortgages made by Rocky Mount Mills to various banks. Also included are local, state, and federal tax returns, as well as records relating to Rocky Mount Mills pension plans. The collection includes materials dealing with bankruptcy proceedings of companies for which Rocky Mount Mills was a creditor. Also included are receipts documenting purchases of mill machinery and other items. Legal documents include contracts and correspondence relating to power and water, the purchase and selling of an electrical distribution system, the construction of railroad lines to the mill property, and other matters. Also included are insurance policies covering automobiles, fire, general liability, workers' compensation, and employer's liability. Materials documenting the closing of Rocky Mount Mills in 1996 include correspondence with the mill's major creditors that discuss the settlement of loans and leases. Records relating to employee matters include United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission reports on the gender, race, and ethnic makeup of the mill's workforce, as well as employee handbooks, leaflets, and other materials dealing with mill safety and grievance procedures. The Addition of June 2008 consists of material similar to those found in the original deposit, including land contracts and mill history, blueprints, and maps; financial and legal documents, including ledgers and account books that document mill appraisals, textile production, payroll expenses, mill orders, construction, sale of stock certificates, tax returns, audits, and related information; and employee records, including a survey of employee attitudes, handbooks, and safety rules. Other materials include the office files of mill executives Hyman L. Battle, Thomas B. Battle, and John M. Mebane, consisting of correspondence, appraisals, land contracts, corporate and legal reports, federal energy and environmental safety reports, engineering materials, and minute books documenting textile production, mill operation, union organizing, city maintenance, community development, the liquidation of Rocky Mount Mills, and John M.

Battle Family Papers (#3223)

Expand/collapse Historical Information

Rocky Mount Mills was one of the first cotton mills constructed in the state of North Carolina. It was one of the few antebellum industrial complexes in the South devoted to the production of cotton, as most cotton during this time was exported in raw form to the North and to Britain. Its origins date back to 1816, when Joel Battle, Peter Evans, Henry Donaldson, and John Hogan began buying land around the falls of the Tar River, near present-day Rocky Mount, N.C. The original mill was constructed between 1816 and 1817 and was expanded in 1819. The mill was in full operation by 1820. By 1825, Joel Battle was the sole owner of the mill, the other founders having sold their stakes in the operation in the previous years. Ownership of the mill would remain in the Battle family until 1883.

Originally, Rocky Mount Mills consisted of a grist mill, a saw mill, and a cotton gin, in addition to the cotton mill. As the southern cotton industry grew after the Civil War, the cotton mill experienced rapid growth and the other operations were de-emphasized and eventually discontinued. Rocky Mount Mills was an early adopter of new technologies, installing electrical lights and automatic sprinklers in 1889, and installing one of the first steam turbines in North Carolina in 1911. The company also supported a residential village for employees, which was eventually incorporated into the city of Rocky Mount in the 1920s. The mill was a major supplier of cotton yarn to the United States Army during World War II. The general decline in southern textile industry beginning in the 1970s eventually impacted Rocky Mount Mills, and the mill closed its doors in 1996.
