Orrick, Grubbs & Parker
The firm of Orrick, Grubbs & Parker, iron merchants, was formed in Philadelphia around 1839, succeeding the firm of Samuel D. Orrick & Co. The firm was composed of Samuel D. Orrick, Edward B. Grubb and William B. Parker and acted as the selling agent for the many forges and furnaces operated by members of the Grubb family in Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon and York Counties. The partnership was apparently dissolved around 1843, when it was replaced by Orrick & Campbell and Edward B. Grubb & Co. The latter firm became E. B. & C. B. Grubb in the following year.
