At the recently held Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees of the American Textile History Museum, Samuel S.

Samuel S. Rogers
His mother was Caroline Stevens Rogers, an accomplished hand spinner. Her father's magnificent collection of early spinning and weaving tools was the impetus for her founding the Museum in 1960 in North Andover. In addition to his dedication to the Museum, Rogers has distinguished himself in the Boston area for his unselfish devotion to community service. He is continuing his association with the Museum as a member of the Board of Advisors for a three-year term.
