By the early 20th century, most of the US textile industries had moved to the south. North Carolina alone had 177 mills in 1900. Previous to this, most of the textile industries were located in the northeast.
By 1860, cotton fueled the Southern economy and helped the Northern textile mills. Two thirds of the world's cotton was produced by the Southern plantations. The northern textile mills were effected by the disruption of the US Civil War in that by 1860, mills sold $100 million worth of cloth made from cotton.
In 1860 the textile mills were heavily dependent of US cotton imports. Seventy-five percent of England's cotton came from the US.
Worldwide the first textile mills started cropping up in England. As the years progressed Americans caught on. The first US textile mill was in Rhode Island. The American Textile industry was largely concentrated in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The Merrimack River was a hotbed for mills. Some still stand today in the cities of Lowell, Lawrence and Haverhill.
Most mills in the United States were historically concentrated in the Northeast, particularly in states like Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York. This region was known for its abundant water power and access to transportation routes, facilitating the growth of textile and other industrial mills during the Industrial Revolution. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mills also began to appear in the Midwest, particularly in states like Ohio and Michigan, as industries expanded westward.
