Special thanks to Andrea Ashby, library technician at Independence National Historical Park, for her assistance in obtaining a digital copy of the portrait of William Allen by Robert Feke (1746) and to Ellen E. These papers were not yet catalogued when I studied them in 1981. I am also indebted to the archivists at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, who provided access to the Chew Family Papers, a most valuable resource for anyone interested in the Andover Ironworks. And no one has been more persistent, or more encouraging, over the decades than my friends from the Canal Society of New Jersey, Bill Moss and Robert Goller. Before all others, I thank my wife, Deborah Powell, who contributed considerable time and talent to the preparation of the illustrations and manuscript. I gratefully acknowledge my sources of inspiration and information.
