Irish Helped Develop Iron and Steel Here

Among the Irish pioneers of Cleveland there were several who left a lasting imprint on the growth of manufacturing.
Anthony Carlin and David J. Champion, who pioneered in rivet making, belonged to this category of Irish early settlers. Both married daughters of Mr. And Mrs. Peter Daly, one of the earliest Irish families in Cleveland.
Anthony Carlin was born at Tonduff, county of Donegal, Ireland in 1857. At the age of 15, in 1872 he came to Cleveland and learned the practical side of the iron foundry business.
In 1881 he established a concern named the Viaduct Foundry, employing but a few men. Soon thereafter he enlarged his plant and in 1885 his enterprise became known as the Standard Foundry & Mfg. Co.
To it he added in 1897 the Standard Steel Range and in 1900 he completed the concern by merging the Standard Register Co. By this time the Carlin plant employed 400 men. In 1918 the firm was incorporated as the Anthony Carlin Rivet Works, 2717 E. 75th St. The founder of the firm died in 1938.
His sons, John and Clarence directed the rivet-making operations until a year and a half ago when the plant was sold. The Carlin family's interests today are mostly in real estate.
