Another Feisty Broad

Rebecca Lukens and her husband bought the closed down Brandywine Iron Works from her father-in-law to revive it.
Her husband died, then the father-in-law died a short time later.
She built the business while simultaneously fighting off her mother-in-laws attempts to take the mill away for the next 20 years.
After the old lady died Rebecca’s brother-in-laws continued to try to take it away.
She produced excellent products at a fair price and survived while many in the area did not.
The name was changed to Lukens Steel in her honor after her death.
