1903 – documented to 1907

The company: The Industrial Revolution record names this firm in passing, in its survey of Howard's chapter; its firm record stands here. Howard gives the Indiana Foundry Company its own section: it was organized on 17 April 1903 with a capital of $10,000, and its incorporators were William N. Bergan, Alonzo A. Forsyth, Joseph Bergan, Frederick L. Dennis, Edward Bergan, Hiram W. VanNest, and Chauncey N. Fassett — three Bergans among the seven. In 1907 Frederick L. Dennis was the company's president and C. N. Fassett its treasurer and general manager. No later course for the company was verified.
