During the Industrial Revolution in England, inventors or people who knew the designs of the inventions were not allowed to leave England because the government did not want any other country getting their hands on the designs. William Cockerill secretly memorized the blueprints for textile producers like the power loom and spinning jenny. He took the ideas to France. There, he and his son created a textile factory. He is responsible for finding the industrial spinning industry in continental Europe.
