In 1883, a historical partnership began in Carthage, Missouri, far removed from any major metropolitan or urban areas. Inventor J.P. Leggett initiated the partnership after developing an innovative bedspring. The bedspring consisted of single cone spring wire coils, formed and interlaced in a unique manner, and then mounted on a wood slat base. The bedsprings could then be used as a resilient, durable base for the thenpopular cotton, feather or horsehair mattresses. Lacking expertise in manufacturing and production, Leggett recruited his future brother-in-law, C.B. Platt, whose father owned and operated Platt Plow Works. Through their partnership, they perfected the equipment necessary to produce the components of their Leggett & Platt bedspring, which was patented in 1885.
Look how much history you can learn geocaching.

Out for the day caching with Jeditrekr on the Spanish Springs Trail. Most were easy finds but there were some that took that little bit longer. TFTC.
