The Maloy Family.

  Daniel H. Maloy, a descendant of the Bains of Scotland, was a pioneer settler
in the county of Telfair. He was the head of the Maloys in Telfair and Dodge. He
was a farmer and mechanic of a high order of talent. He operated a blacksmith
shop and was a skilled workman. He invented the iron screw for packing cotton
about the beginning of the War Between the States, and owing to the breaking out
of the war failed to obtain a patent. He left a model of the screw press at
Schofield's Iron Works in Macon, where the first iron screw press for packing
cotton was made. During the war he invented a plow with a heel, upon which the
celebrated "Dixie Plow" of the present time was modeled, and was the originator
of other useful mechanical devices. He married Mary Williamson, daughter of the
