Joseph Dart

Joseph Dart died on September 29, 1879.  In 1842, Mr. Dart designed the world’s first steam powered elevator to transfer grain and store it and revolutionized the handling of wheat.  As a result, Buffalo became the busiest grain transfer port in the world.  He attached buckets to a vertical belt and powered it by a steam engine. The buckets reached down into the wheat, scooped up the grain and dropped it into warehouses called grain elevators.  Joseph Dart is buried in section one in Forest Lawn.
