River Point

In 1855 the village was given its present name because the north and south branches of the Pawtuxet River unite here. The first cotton mill was built in 1813; in 1885 the B. B. and R. Knight Company took over the major plant, and named it the Royal Mill; the factory burned in 1919 but was immediately rebuilt, for the manufacture of sheetings. [1]
