If Mr. McKillip's sheller bears only the Root and Heath names, it was probably made between 1904 and 1919. At some time around 1913, the firm apparently was named the Heath Foundry and Manufacturing Company, so that name could appear on some shellers. If Fate is part of the name, the machine was made between 1919 and 1924. It sounds as though Bryan has the start of a nice collection, but he really needs to start looking for the rest of the F-R-H shellers. One is never enough!
