History
The Algoma Iron Works Limited was incorporated on June 16,1910 with Letters Patent in Ontario. Originally it was established by Francis H. Clergue as the Algoma Iron Works, a department of the Sault Ste. Marie Pulp and Paper Co. to operate a foundry and machine shop to build equipment for the Clergue industries. On May 1, 1911 the Sault Ste. Marie Pulp and Paper Company conveyed land, buildings and equipment to the Algoma Iron Works in exchange for all the company shares. These shares were then transferred to the Lake Superior Corporation in 1912. On April 1, 1912, Algoma Iron Works Limited transferred its assets and liabilities to the Lake Superior Iron & Steel Company. The Lake Superior Iron & Steel Company then changed its name to the Algoma Steel Corporation. On December 20, 1913 the Algoma Iron Works Limited was dissolved and its charter surrendered.
