What an interesting story you weave! Thanks for all the research you did. What an interesting character in the history of my state, good old Iowa! I always notice old silo's and wonder about them but what a story these "twins" had behind them!
Very interesting, thanks! I see the Galloway name a lot in my collection of old farming magazines. Very nice to learn his business history. Neat to see that the barn was outfitted with equipment from the James Manufacturing Company. That equipment was made where I live (and still milk cows...) here in Fort Atkinson, WI.
It is believed Some Galloway engine blocks and other parts where cast at the Waterloo boy gas engine plant under contract but where not made by Waterloo boy company. But this is not an indisputable fact. The Waterloo boy gas engine company casted for many company’s and their foundry ran 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Waterloo boy made many gas engine for some company’s called the contract engines. Some brands include T Eaton, Sheldon, majestic. But me thinks there was over 60 at one time? But Galloway did not use the Waterloo boy engines under contract to be their own. They made their own engine.
Holy Shit!!!!! What an Empire!! With NO cell Phone 😂😂😂 nice story!!!!!

There is a city park named galloway just southwest if the cattle congress grounds

Galloway gas engines were made by Waterloo gasoline engine co. Which later on became John Deere tractor works
This is absolutely not true. Galloway's first engines were built in a plant in Wisconsin then shortly after were built in his new factory in Waterloo.
