ROCKER BEATER LOOM #59: THE GERALD FAMILY LOOM

In working order at Sutton Homestead & Pioneer Village, Granville, Tennessee


When this loom was donated to the museum it was missing the mid-loom uprights and the entire shedding system.  Local weaver/loom collector, Ann Fife, volunteered to restore the loom and is now giving weaving demonstrations on it at the Sutton Homestead & Pioneer Village.


At this point little is known about the background of the loom, other than it was located by the donor in a barn on a farm previously owned by the Gerald Family of Wilson County, Tennessee.
