On WR reel 14, there is a listing at Watervliet of Joseph Turner who died 15 Oct 1800, aged 60. "In 1790 Joseph Turner who was supervising the 2-acre family garden at Watervliet, began to offer a few surplus seeds for sale. It was the first time anyone in that part of the country had marketed seeds. Turner's successor, Ebenezer Alden, invented a 'printing box' for hand-printing the seed bags instead of marketing them by hand." Melcher, p. 123 11/30/88 6/1/96 eds o_author 11/30/88 6/1/96 eds
