Robert,
the archaeology done at Nassawango furnace amounts to one phase I level
survey and some "public digs" with no professional guidance.

The Nassawango (sp?) iron furnace near Pocomoke City, MD comes to mind,
though I don't know what archaeology has been done there.

Afternoon all,
I have an undergraduate student in my class in African American
Archaeology who would like to do her semester research on any studies done
on iron works or foundries in the Chesapeake region, preferably Maryland,
that employed slave labor, time period - anytime from the Revolution to
Emancipation. I have not found any archaeological studies in that region on
that topic, although there have been some done in the Caribbean. Any ideas
of some published studies? If not, I will strongly suggest she move to
another topic...
Thanks loads,
Bonnie Ryan
