Moseley Iron Bridge and Roof Company

The Moseley Iron Bridge Company was founded by Thomas William Moseley in Cincinnati, Ohio around 1858 and existed until 1879. Moseley was an engineer, bridge builder, and designer. John Paul Verree used T.W.H. Moseley's designs for his bridge manufacturing business in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

History
Zenas King was hired by Moseley as a salesperson and represented Moseley at many bridge lettings, mainly in southern Ohio. King remained in Ohio and started his own bridge building business in Cleveland. In 1861, Moseley decided to move the company to Boston, Massachusetts. Moseley moved his business to Boston when he discovered marketing his iron bridge designs were ideal for areas in the New England area. The company was also known as the Moseley Iron Bridge Works of Boston. The company changed names and locations several times between 1858 and 1879, including Philadelphia and New York.
