THE POTTS MEMORIAL DETAILED ANCESTRY OF LOCAL FAMILY IRON MAKING EMPIRE - THE POTTS MEMORIAL DETAILED ANCESTRY OF LOCAL FAMILY IRON MAKING EMPIRE Book containing detailed history of the Potts family of South Eastern Pennsylvania with handmade information of certain members. They resided at Pottsgrove Manor. ” Thomas Potts and his son, John Potts, created the largest iron-making empire in colonial America. By 1750 John Potts became, in his own right, the foremost ironmaster in Pennsylvania. Both Thomas and John Potts built this empire on their knowledge of iron-making, sound business decisions, and especially the contributions of relatives. During the eighteenth century and well into the nineteenth century, ironmasters relied on partnerships with relatives, previous business associates, and trusted friends. Trust was a critical component of such partnerships, since iron furnaces and forges required substantial investments and partners were personally liable for any debts should a furnace or forge fail, which they frequently did. Among Pennsylvania ironmasters, Thomas and John Potts were incomparable at developing their iron holdings through kinship networks.” Spine wear on book. 9” x 7.5” Shipping: Shipping and handling in the continental US will cost $18.97 - $35.78, depending on your location.
