SOME HISTORY AS TO THE ORIGINS OF THE BLANKET:

Mike is a direct descendent of John Owen Goodwin, a silk weaver from Macclesfield, England, whose son James immigrated to the United States in 1837 and established a weaving business in Maryland. Subsequent generations of Goodwins entered the trade and eventually operated mills in Virginia, West Virginia, and the Cumberland Gap area of Tennessee. They produced woven goods of wool, such as blankets and shawls, and also specialized in the manufacture of linsey-woolsey, a combination of cotton and wool. In 1952, the family moved to North Carolina and established Goodwin Guild Weavers in Blowing Rock. Mike's Aunt Mary, keeper of the family stories, lives there still.
