Moses Brown was a prominent American abolitionist and industrialist from New England. He played a crucial role in the American Industrial Revolution by financing the development and construction of early factories for spinning machines. Notably, he funded the Slater Mill, recognized as the first modern factory in America. Brown's contributions significantly impacted both the fight against slavery and the rise of industrialization in the United States.
In 1913, The New England Yearly Meeting School, which Moses Brown significantly contributed to throughout his life, was renamed in his honor as the Moses Brown School.
