Good learn. Ran across this name while ancestry searching. Great grandmother was a Gatling via her great grandfather(George) by way of slavery. Thomas Gatling, Richard’s older brother, was George’s owner.

Wow. That is quite a discovery!

I had no idea! Interesting that the structure was inspired by his seed planters.

[@GEEKORMAN]

Right?
