Roland Curtin, Governor of Pennsylvania during the Civil War, purchased 11,000 acres of land and with Moses Boggs erected the Eagle Iron Works in 1810. The Eagle Iron Works was an iron producing center from 1810 until 1921. By the mid 1800's, the self-sufficient iron 'plantation' consisted of over 60 structures including the Ironmaster's Mansion, a charcoal-fired iron furnace, rolling mill, a forge, and a worker's village.
