An early ironmaster in Pennsylvania

Samuel Nutt was the son of an English baronet. He became a Quaker and emigrated to Pennsylvania. In 1718 he built a bloomery forge on French Creek, Coventry. Six years later, in partnership with William Branson, he built Rock Run blast furnace, close to his forge. They later built the larger Reading Furnace. In 1732 the first steel made in Pennsylvania was produced at Coventry by skilled workers brought from England. When Samuel died in 1737, his wife Anna built Warwick Furnace.[1]
