Excerpt: ...but much of it was brought from the Juniata valley, which also supplied the mills with most of their blooms. The Juniata pig iron and blooms were hauled over the Allegheny mountains to Johnstown, usually on sleds in the winter season, and taken down the Conemaugh, Kiskiminetas, and Allegheny rivers to Pittsburgh with the spring and fall freshets. In 1829 Pittsburgh had eight rolling-mills, using 6,000 tons of blooms, chiefly from the Juniata valley, and 1,500 tons of pig metal. In the same year there were nine foundries that consumed 3,500 tons of metal. In 1828 the iron rolled was 3,291 tons; in 1829 it was 6,217 tons; and in 1830 it was 9,282 tons. It is stated that in 1830 one hundred steam-engines were built. In 1831 there were two steel furnaces, and cast iron began to be used for pillars, the caps and sills of windows, etc. In 1836 there were nine rollingmills in operation, and eighteen foundries, engine-factories, and machine-shops. In 1856 there were in Pittsburgh and Allegheny county twenty-five rolling-mills and thirty-three foundries. There were no blast furnaces in Pittsburgh and Allegheny county in 1858, but now there are twelve. Clinton furnace, built in 1859, by Graff," Bennett & Co., and blown in on the last Monday of October in that year, was the first furnace to be built in Allegheny county after the abandonment in 1794 of George Anshutz's furnace at Shady Side--a surprisingly long interregnum. Clinton furnace was followed in 1861 by the two Eliza furnaces of Laughlin & Co., and soon afterwards by others. The Lucy and Isabella furnaces have yielded larger weekly products of iron than any other furnaces in the country. The ores used at Pittsburgh are mainly obtained from the Lake Superior mines, but those of...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to a History of Ironmaking and Coal Mining in Pennsylvania: Contributed to the Final Report of the Pennsylvania Board of Centennial Managers That there may be no misunderstanding. I wish distinctly to impress upon the mind of the reader the fact that I have not attempted to write a complete history of ironmaking and coal mining in Pennsylvania, but have assumed only to write such an introduction to their history as will contain a record of the principal events which mark the beginning of these two great industries of our State, and mark, also, the leading events in their subsequent development. Beginning with their beginning, I end with the progress they had made down to 1876, but only glance at the great gap between. Otherwise stated, the scope of the following pages embraces a statement of the first enterprises in iron making and coal mining in Pennsylvania, a reference to significant periods of their development, and a summary of ultimate results. Greater amplitude and detail could only have been possible by completely changing the plan upon which the two essays had been projected. I have undertaken to preserve only that part of the history of our iron and coal industries that is of most value and is in most danger of being lost. To those who would have been gratified to see in this volume a description of existing ironworks in Pennsylvania, it is proper that we should say that the American Iron and Steel Association published in 1876 a complete list of all such enterprises in the United States, which list is now being revised for publication in the spring of the present year.
