Abstract
Description
In 1853, the Ryerson's house and property were purchased by Peter Cooper. Mr Cooper owned The Trenton Ironworks. The company was managed by his son Edward and his son's business partner, Abram S. Hewitt.
Cooper & Hewitt's iron business was a successful and expanding business and the purchase of the Ringwood property ensured an adequate supply of iron ore for the future.
Cooper and Hewitt was the major supplier of gunmetal to the Union cause during the American Civil War. During the pre- and post-Civil War era, Cooper & Hewitt was one of the largest, most important concerns in the iron business.
