List of windmills in the United States
Introduction This is a list of "traditional" windmills in the United States, which usually are gristmills.In this nation more than others, "windmill" is often used to refer to what are properly termed windpumps bringing up water for agriculture. This is at least partly due to usage by windpump builders Eclipse Windmill Company (1873) and Aermotor Windmill Company (1888, the sole surviving US "windmill" manufacturer). And it is also used by many to refer to modern wind turbines generating electricity.This list aims to include only traditional-type windmills, with the exception that it also includes NRHP-listed historic windpumps known as windmills, such as the "Iron Turbine Windmill" in Arizona.Windmills having coordinates below may be seen together in a map: click on "Map all coordinates using OpenSourceMap" at right of this page.
