I have had another enquiry that I don't think anyone within the HMS (or
probably anywhere else) can help with. I hope you don't mind my passing it
on.
Brian Jacobson is preserving/interpreting the Falling Creek Ironworks (in
Virginia?) He is trying to find anything known to have been made from iron
ore shipped to England from round about there by Captains John Smith and
Christopher Newport in 1608-9! No doubt he would be pleased to hear of
anything known to have been made there, or any other relevant information.
Thank for your indulgence.
