Summary
In 1785 Samuel Hibberd established the Mary Ann Forge along the Brandywine Creek in Uwchlan Township, Chester County. In 1801 John Dowlin purchased the forge lands from Hibberd's heirs. Operated by several generations of the Dowlin family during much of the nineteenth century, the forge supported a thriving industrial community known as Dowlin Forge. This book includes information on the Hibberd and Dowlin families as well as Dowlin's Grist Mill, Dowlin's Sawmill,and the company store.
