Scope and Content

The surviving records of the Lackawanna Steel Company are limited to a handful of corporate documents, miscellaneous agreements, organizational papers, and blast furnace metallurgical books (1906-1912). The agreements largely span from after the company was incorporated in 1902 until its sale to Bethlehem Steel Corporation in 1922. There are, however, a few agreements dating from the company’s predecessor companies in the late nineteenth century, including those from the Scranton Steel Co., Lackawanna Iron and Steel Co., and Lackawanna Iron and Coal Co. Among the topics included are agreements for the construction of hopper cars, the sale of ammonia and other chemicals, construction projects in various plants, and water supply to various plants. The agreements also comprise organizational papers such as the company charter and certificate of incorporation. There is also a general plant layout of the Ferguson Steel and Iron Corp. in Buffalo, New York.
