MIFFLIN COUNTY.


Mr. and Mrs. Means, many years since, became members of the Presbyterian Church of Brown township, in which their son Francis A. is an elder.


Andrew Mayes (a brother of James Mayes, who settled at what is now Yeagertown) settled near Lewistown, where he took out a warrant for fifteen acres of land, May 1, 1792, and later in 1792 purchased a large tract adjoining. In 1793 he had two hundred acres, and in 1798 bad upon the land a grist-mill and an old saw- mill. In this year he sold two hundred acres which lay on the west side of the Kishacoquil- las, adjoining lands of John Gregg and Arthur Foster. On the remaining land he had built a stone grist-mill and a long race, which is still used and was for a long time a feeder of the canal. The land on which the stone mill and its successor, the frame mill, stood, is now the property of William Willis. The property was sold by Andrew Mayes about 1811, and about 1813 came into the possession of James Milli- ken, who kept it mitil after 1842, when it passed to John Sterrett and the frame mill was torn down, and the large mill in the borough took its place.


William Shaw came to this county from Watsontown in 1808, and May 28th in that year bought of Isaiah Willis fifty-four acres of land on the west side of Kishacoquillas Creek, and to include a small run of water. Applica- tion was made for a tract of two hundred avres, including this, November 4, 1766, by Robert Glenn. It passed respectively to . David MeAnair, James Barr, William Brown, Robert Buchanan and Andrew Mayes before it came to Isaac Willis. Mr. Shaw erected a tannery soon after his settlement, which he conducted many years, and was continued by his son Robert until his death, in 1876, when it was abandoned.


A mill-seat was npon the property, and Mr. Shaw gave, in 1831, to his son-in-law, Arthur B. Long, one-half interest in it, and they built, in 1832, Mount Rock Mill. Mr. Long retired in 18:10, and Mr. Shaw continued until his death, in 1856, when it passed to other hands, and in 1868 came to Samnel Rodgers, who owned it until March 31, 1880, when it was soll to Andrew Spanogle, by whom it is still


owned. The mill is wow operated by Spanogle and Yeager, who have introduced the new roller process ;" they also operate the mill at Reedsville.


Mr. Shaw had three sons and four daughters- Robert W. and Win. I. remained ou the farm ; John W. settled in Lewistown as a lawyer, where he still resides; Anna E. became the wife of Ar- thur B. Loug, and now resides in Lewistown ; Maria married Isaac Townsend, of Little Valley ; Susan married Robert Sterrett, of Lock's Mills ; and Harriet, Alfred Marks, of Lewistown.


Robert Forsythe came to this county in .Iune, 1784, and about the time of the establish- meut of Mifflin County came to Lewistown and became a merchant in the new town. He lived there until his death, in 1824. He purchased large tracts of land in Derry township, and in 1817 was assessed on one thousand acres of land. He owned the mills at Yeagertown, and a large tract of four hundred aeres on Jack's Creek, which was warranted June 8, 1762, and called "Jack's Beaver Dam." This passed to Thomas Holt in 1763, who at the same time conveyed it to Charles and John Cox and George Armstrong. It eventually came to Charles Cox, who conveyed it to his daughter Grace in 1789. On the 29th of May, 1790, she sold it to James Le Roy de Chaumont, of Le Roy, Jefferson County, N. Y., who, on the 20th of May, 1816, conveyed it to Robert Forsythe. After his death the family removed to the farm where Mrs. Matthew Forsythe now lies, and where Matthew, the eldest son, lived and died.


Robert Forsythe, Ir., settled on the Ziegler farm, and George above the homestead on JJack's Creek. Of the daughters, Nancy became the wife of the Rev. Samnel Cooper ; Elizabeth married Henry Taylor, of the Kishacoquillas Valley ; and Charlotte now resides with her brother George in Lewistown.


The MeFaddens owned a small tract of land before 1798 below the lower lock in the Nar- rows, where John Mcfadden was assessed on the saue land in 1809, and as an cel catcher. In 1810 he was keeping the tavern at the Woods place, which he kept until 1822. The family

The ore was mostly obtained from Stone STANDARD STEEL-WORKS .- The first attempt Valley, Huntingdon County, also from MeNitt's farm, in the West Kishacoquillas Valley, about three miles from the forge. William Creigh- ton, now living at Yeagertown, was employed at the works in 1825. The furnace was aban- doned about 1830. at the manufacture of iron in what is now Mifflin County was made by William Brown, who erected a forge in 1795 on the site of the puddle-mill at Logan. The first reliable infor- mation concerning it is found in the court records of Mifflin County of the August term, 1795, and is the record of a petition for a road " from Freedom Forge, thence the nearest and best way to the river Juniata near to or at MeClelland's landing."


On the 18th of October, 1813, the firm of Miller, Martin & Co., was dissolved. Wil- liam Brown purchased the interest of Joseph Martin, and Dr. John Watson, of Lancaster, the interest of Samuel Miller. The firm-name under the new management became Joli Brown & Co., and the works were known as the " Freedom Iron-Works." Under this firm Finley Ellis was for many years manager. In 1827 the interest of John Brown was purchased by Jolin Norris, and the firm-name was


The landing here mentioned was at Lewis- town, and was owned by George MeClelland, who, a short time later, erected the stone house that now stands between the railroad and Kisha- coquillas Creek, by the bridge on Main Street. . The forge is again mentioned in the conrt records of November, 1800. In 1812 the property changed to William Brown & Co., and so re- was sold by William Brown and the heirs of mained until 1833. The interest of Norris was sold to. William Brown in the spring of that year. The works for several years prior to this time had been operated by lessees, of whom were John Irvine, John Doyle and Dr. Smith. William Maclay to Samnel Miller and Joseph Martin, iron-masters, of Lancaster, and John Brown, son of William. The firm-name was Miller, Martin & Co. The forge was contin- ued in operation until 1834, when it was rebuilt The company had been purchasing lands at different times, and at this time (1833) were in possession of about eighteen thousand acres, in the townships of Derry, Union, Armagh, Deca- tur and Penn's Valley, besides numerous ore- rights. The forge and furnace tract embraced four hundred acres. with one chafery and six refining fires and with a capacity of manufacturing eight hundred tons of bloom iron per autumn. It was continued from that time until 1878, when it was torn down to give way for the present puddle-mill, which was erected on its site.


Miller, Martin & Co., on the 12th of Novem- ber, 1812, advertised in the Juniata Gacette for workmen, " as they are engaged in building a furnace at Freedom Forge." The furnace built at this time was erceted a short distance below

B. Norris and Samuel Patton. This company, under the name of Norris, Rawle & Co., were operating Greenwood Furnace and Rebecca Forge (the last under lease), on Stone Creek, Huntingdon County. On the 10th of Febru- ary, 1835, they advertised Greenwood Furnace, Freedom Forge and the lease of Rebecca Forge for sale.


The firm was dissolved on April 1, 1835, by the retirement of Norris and Patton, and Rawle and Hall continued. The property was not sold umtil November 4, 1847, when Joli Ster- rett became the purchaser, who, December 9th the same year, sold it to Archibald, Jolm and John A. Wright. November 24, 1854, the lat- ter came into full possession and remained until December 23, 1856, when he conveyed Freedom Forge and about forty thousand acres of land to the Freedom Tron Company. Joseph Thomas was president and John A. Wright superintend- ent, and later president. The company erected on the island a forge and a rolling-mill for roll- iug iron tires, with a capacity for mannfacturing two thousand tires per year. In the year 1866 the company was reorganized, with a view of man- ufacturing steel tire, and the name was changed to "The Freedom Iron and Steel Company," and on the 22d of January, 1866, the property passed to the new company. In 1867 the com- pany erected large stone and frame buildings on the island and put in the Bessemer plant, with two five-ton converters on the English plan, this being then the fourth in this country-the first being at Wyandotte, Mich., in 1863; the second at Troy, N. Y., in 1865; the third at the Pennsylvania Steel-Works, Steelton, in 1867. The first blow was made May 1, 1868, and for one year locomotive tires, rails and forg- ings were made. In 1869 the Bessemer works were dismantled, and in 1871 most of the ma- chinery was sold to the Joliet Steel Company, of Illinois.


The Logan Steel and Iron Company was or- ganized in 1871, and purchased the property of the Freedom Iron and Steel Company and be- gan operations in November of that year in the manufacture of charcoal pig-iron and bar-iron. The rolling-mill and bar mill were still on the island, and were there operated until 1882, when


a new rolling-mill was built on the west side of the Kishacoquillas Creek, with three train of eighteen, twelve and eight-inch, and five double puddling furnaces, three steam-hammers, au en- gine of five Imudred horse-power and two of one hundred horse-power cach. The capacity of the mill is eight thousand tons of finished iron per anumn. Upon its completion theold roll- ing-mill was abandoned and the property leased to the Standard Steel Company, who now oper- ate it.


The Freedom Iron and Steel Company built the Emma Furnace in 1868, with nine feet bosh and a stack thirty-four feet in height ; the stack was increased to forty-two feet in December, 1880, when the furnace was changed from char- coal to coke. Its present capacity is four thou- sand tons per annum.


The old puddle-mill on the east side of the ercek was erected in 1878 by the Logan Steel and Iron Company, on the site of the old forge erected in 1795, and was fitted with a sixteen- inch puddle-train and four double and one sin- gle furnace. The capacity of the old and new paddling-mills is about nine hundred tons per month.


The company also own and operate Green- wood Furnace, in Stone Creek, Huntingdon County, which was the property of Rawle & Hall in 1835, when they came into possession of Freedom Forge. The company employ, when in full operation, two hundred and eighty men. A large store is at the place, and in 1882 the company erected a large and commo- dious brick office, two stories in height, thirty- eiglit by forty feet. The first president of the Logan Steel and Iron Company was John M. Kennedy, of Philadelphia, who was suc- ceeded by II. T. Townsend, now president. R. HI. Lee became superintendent of the Free- dom Iron Company in 1865, and succeeded to the same position with the Freedom Iron & Steel Company, and later with the Logan Steel and Iron Company, which position he now holds.


The Standard Steel-Works are located on what is known at Logan as the Island. The manufacture of steel here was begun by the Freedom Iron and Steel Company, by the Bes-

semer process, in November, 1868, and abau- doned in 1869. The machinery was mostly sold, in 1871, to the Joliet Steel Company, Illinois who sold part of it the sune yearto Wil- liam Butcher, of Philadelphia, who began the manufacture of steel tires, and turned off the first tire February 1, 1872. The works were fitted with twenty-eight four-pot furnaces, and had a capacity of turning off ten tons of crucible steel per day. Mr. Butcher became embarrassed, and from August of that year until 1875 the works were operated by creditors. The Standard Steel Company was organized in that year, mostly by the creditors of Mr. Butcher, and took possession of the works. Steel was manu- factured until 1875, since when it was aban- doncd. Steel ingots have been and are used from the Otis Iron and Steel Company, of Cleve- land, Ohio.


The manufacture of steel tires is the sole bus- iness, and at present the capacity is one hun- dred tires per day. It is the intention to add a new roll in this year (1885) which will increase the capacity to one hundred and fifty tires per day. When in full force the company employ about one hundred and twenty-five hands.


M. L. Brosius was general superintendent from July 1, 1872, to March 1, 1884, when he was succeeded by William G. Neilson as general manager, and J. S. Stephenson, superintendent.


Senoors .- One of the earliest school-houses in the limits of the present township of Derry was built on the land of George Rothrock (now Albright's), in Ferguson Valley. It ismentioned in a deed of 1828, when the property passed to the Albrights. The site has been occupied from that time and was accepted by the school dirce- tors in 1836.


A log school-house was erected on the lot of the Little Valley Presbyterian congregation, at what is now Kellyville, probably about 1810 The church building seems to have been in dis- use in 1827-28, and the services were held in the school-house. It was used until 18 13, when it was sold to the Freedom Iron Company, by whom it was moved to Freedom and made into a dwelling .! -- Hamilton and Major David

Ilough, in 1831, were appointed school directors, ---- Martin, David Rothrock, Elias Everhart, Jabez Spencer, William S. Bell and Thompson (. Bell were teachers in the old bonse. A new frame honse was erected in 1813, which served its purpose until. 1868, when the present briek honse was erected. The deed to the lot was given by Moses Kelly, May 6, 1817. The school law passed in April, 1834, and at the November term following the court ap- pointed Joseph Matthews and David Hough as directors. The township was laid out into five districts,-one embracing Forsythe's Mills (now Yeagertown), oue in Dry Valley (now Kelly- ville), one at Strode's, one at Samuel Price's and one at Albright's. William P. Elliot, as secretary of the board, advertised, August 4, 1835, that proposals would be received from teachers until August 15th, on which day the board would meet at the house of James Turner, in Lewis- town, and make contracts. In July, 1838, Joseph Milliken sold a lot, in trust, for school purposes, to the school directors, adjoining land of Joseph Milliken and John Norris. This lot is now in the borough limits. A briek school- house is upon it, and it is used by the township. An old school-house stood formerly back of the poor-house, which was destroyed by a tree falling upon it in 1851. About 1860 Matthew Forsythe donated a lot to the directors, and the present house on the road to Maitland Station was erected. At what is now Maitland Station the present school-house was built about 1860.


About 1840 Rawle & Hall sold to the directors a lot for school purposes, ou the road from Freedom Forge to the Isaac Price farm ; the deed bears date June 3, 1843. A house was erected and was long known as the Old Red School-house. The present house was erected in 1868 by the Logan Iron and Steel Company.

The outer row wus seated against the walls, with writing-boards in front for those who used the pen and pencil. Long benches, with low backs, stood nearer the stove for the little fellows who did not use the pen.

On the road from Stine's Mill to Kellyville, and not far from the mill, a brick school-house was erected about 1873. A school was estab- lished at Forsythe's Mills ( Yeagertown) in 1836, but was abandoned. Later, a house was built and used until 1870, when a brick school-house was built, to which additions were made in 1883 and 1885. The township at present con- tains twelve schools, with six hundred and thirty-seven pupils.

CHAPTER VI.


ARMAGHI TOWNSHIP.1


By 1769 many settlers had located north of Jack's Mountain, and as that range lay between them and the more thickly-settled portion of the township, they were compelled to cross the mountain to attend elections. To obvi- ate this inconvenience, an effort was made to farm a new township, and to this end petitions were sent to the courts of Cumberland County. The following action was taken at the Jannary sessions, 1770 :


" Upon reading the petition of several of the inhab- itants of Kishachoquillas Great Valley, setting forth that they labour under the Burthen of being in one township with Derry, and as Jack's Mountain lies be- tween the Great Valley and the rest of the township, which ents away all communication only at the Nar- rows. The Petitioners therefore humbly prayed that


the Court would take them under dne consideration and strike the Great Valley off into a township by itself, leaving Jack's Mountain to be the Division line. The Court Do therenpon consider and order that Jack's Mountain aforesaid be the Division line be- tween the township of Derry and the Part struck off from Said township, which is called by the name of Armagh township, allowing the township of Armagh to include Kishachoquillas Narrows to where the Road now crosses Kishachoquillas Creek."


Armagh township was originally part of Derry, which embraced the whole of what is now Mifflin County from its erection, in January, 1767, to January, 1770, at which time the Cumberland County Court erected all that part of Derry township lying east of Jack's Mountain as Armagh.


At the March term of Mifflin County Court, in 1790, the township of Union was erected from the west part of Armagh, and in January, 1837, the townships of Armagh and Union weredivided, forming Brown and Menno, Brown being taken from Armagh, which was then described as being six and a half miles in length and six miles ,in width, and " from the Knobs eastward to the Union County line it is uninhabited, being a continnous range of mountains."


The following is a list of the names of per- sans assessed in 1773, and also shows the mm- ber of aeres owned by each :
