Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation.
Hide Profile
Jones & Laughlin Steel was established in 1853 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, as the result of several interlocking partnerships between members of the Jones and Laughlin families. The partnerships consolidated in 1902 to become the Jones & Laughlin Steel Company, then the nation's second largest producer of steel. The company was incorporated in 1923 as the Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation. Jones & Laughlin had major steel manufacturing works at Pittsburgh; Aliquippa, Pennsylvania; Cleveland, Ohio; and Hennepin, Illinois. In 1974, Jones and Laughlin became a wholly owned subsidiary of the LTV Corporation, although it continued to do business under its original name. Like the rest of the American steel industry, Jones & Laughlin's fortunes declined steadily through the 1970s and 1980s. In 1984, the LTV Corporation merged with the Republic Steel Corporation. The new company, which was significantly reduced in size, was renamed LTV Steel.
