George Benjamin Thorneycroft

Wealthy industrialist George Benjamin Thorneycroft (20 August 1791 – 28 April 1851) was a successful ironmaster and Tory supporter who became the first Mayor of Wolverhampton, after the Borough was incorporated, in 1848.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=http://www.wolverhamptonhistory.org.uk )
==Iron and Steel==
Thorneycroft moved to Leeds with his family and returned to Wolverhamton aged 18 with a basic knowledge of iron forging which allowed him to join an established iron works in Bilston. In partnership with his twin brother Edward he founded Shrubbery Ironworks in Wolverhampton in 1824.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=©Wolverhampton Archives & Local Studies Service, www.blackcountryhistory.org )〕 From an initial production of 10 tons of iron a week George used his experience to grow the business and was soon producing 700 tons a week of high quality iron. With skillful marketing he became a key supplier to the fast expanding railway companies. The business continued to grow, even after Thorneycroft's death, and made large profits from production of armour plating and shells during the Crimean War. Along with other businesses in the town the works suffered, during a slump in demand for iron, and closed in 1877.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=www.localhistory.scit.wlv.ac.uk. )
