Title A name given to the resource Central Foundry, Railyard Subject The topic of the resource Foundries Description An account of the resource At one time, the plant on the banks of the Black Warrior River was the largest cast-iron pipe maker in the world. It survived the Great Depression and boomed during WWII and the Korean War. In the early 1980s, the foundry closed due to bankruptcy. The Central Foundry manufactured cast iron pipe for water and gas service, cast iron soil pipe, fittings used for plumbing and drain purposes, and brake shoes for railroad locomotives and cars. The foundry had three locations, the largest being in Tuscaloosa, and was the first large manufacturing plant in Tuscaloosa. The Central Coal and Iron Co. of South Pittsburg, TN, found land near Tuscaloosa and named its site and company village after one of its officers, Frank Holt. Coal for the foundry came from Kellerman. In 1902, the Mobile and Ohio Railroad built a 13-miles long (later 16-mile long) railroad to support operations at Central Foundry.

Title A name given to the resource Rosenau Hosiery Mills, 1904 Subject The topic of the resource Mills and mill work Cotton textile industry Cotton textiles Automobiles Description An account of the resource Rosenau Hosiery Mills, which burned in 1924, employed 200 people in the early 1900s in the production of hose and socks. It was the only factory in Tuscaloosa that employed women. Children as young as 10 years old could be employed, but a company rule said they had to attend school at least three months each school year until they reached 12 years of age. After laws were passed regarding employment of children, inspectors came around to see if any child was working. If so, the supervisors would hide them in bins of socks until it was safe to come out. This photograph from the 1904 Tuscaloosa Board of Trade Booklet includes a car, one of the earliest to be found in Tuscaloosa. The first car, according to Ben A. Green in A History of Tuscaloosa, Alabama 1816-1949, was a 1900 Locomobile steamer owned by David Rosenau. The model in the picture appears to be closer to a 1904 model than a 1900 model Locomobile.

Title A name given to the resource Rosenau Hosiery Mills, 1919 Subject The topic of the resource Mills and mill work Cotton textile industry Women employees Child labor Description An account of the resource The Rosenau Hosiery Mills were built in Tuscaloosa around 1901. The advertisement tolls the concept of having girls and teenage boys help support families by working in the factory. Rosenau Hosiery Mill employed 200 people in the early 1900s in the production of hose and socks. It was the only factory in Tuscaloosa that employed women. Children as young as 10 years old could be employed, but a company rule said they had to attend school at least three months each school year until they reached 12 years of age. After laws were passed regarding employment of children, inspectors came around to see if any child was working. If so, the supervisors would hide them in bins of socks until it was safe to come out. The Tuscaloosa plant burned in 1924.

Title A name given to the resource Parker Towing Company Propeller, The Parker Wheel Subject The topic of the resource Towing Propellers Parker, Tim Sr., 1904-1992 Description An account of the resource Photograph of the propeller developed by Tim Parker for his towing boats and the description accompanying the display at Parker Towing Company in Northport. <br /><br />Text of the sign: <br /><br />The Parker Wheel <br /><br />Parker Towing Company founder, Captain Tim Parker (1904-1992), began his career on the Black Warrior-Tombigbee River working on and later piloting paddlewheel steamboats. In 1946 he built his first diesel powered, propeller driven boat, M/V R.G. Parker. After putting it into service, he discovered the propellers or “wheels” available at that time were designed primarily for pushing ahead and did not provide sufficient thrust when the boat was in reverse or “backing”. <br /><br />With his years of experience piloting paddle wheelers, he knew how critical “backing” was to safely navigate the narrow bends between Tuscaloosa and Mobile. Captain Parker worked with a propeller manufacturer in Mobile, Alabama to design a propeller to increase its thrust in reverse or “backing”. That propeller design became known as the “Parker Wheel”. <br /><br />The propeller on display here is of that design. It was used on the M/V Dallas, a diesel powered, twin propeller driven towboat owned by Parker Towing Company and operated for many years moving barges on rivers throughout the southeast. This propeller is made of bronze and is 72 inches in diameter with a pitch of 67 inches, manufactured by Doran Alabama Propeller Company.
