William Kelly
From Graces Guide
Claimed to have invented a process equivalent to the Bessemer Process
By 1858, according to John E. Fry of the Cambria Steel Works, Kelly's experiments "had not accomplished anything that would give ground to his claim of being the inventor of the pneumatic process of converting cast iron into its malleable products, or in substantiation of the rather vague claim allowed him in his first patent, issued subsequent to the issue of yours (i.e. Bessemer's) in this country (i.e. Britain)".
