Memorial honors Detroit steel pioneer William Kelly
A bronze tablet on Wyandotte Public Library doors honors William C. Kelly of Charleston West Virginia as discoverer of the pneumatic steel making process. He allegedly taught the method his father started in Kentucky, with later claims by Henry Bessemer disputed. Kelly’s legacy includes the first large pneumatic plant at Wyandotte and a shift of industry fame to Pittsburgh.
