James Brindley's nephew was a canal engineer Suggestion
James Brindley, the younger (1745-1820) worked with his uncle until the latter’s death and then emigrated to America in 1774. The younger Brindley worked on "most of the early canals constructed in the eighteenth century: the Susquehanna Canal, the Conewago Canal, the Potomac Canal, the Santee Canal, the James River Canal, the Harper’s Ferry power canal and others. George Washington promoted Brindley and "spoke well of him".

I propose to edit this material into This article and to write a new article on the younger Brindley as part of a larger article I am writing on the Schuylkill and Susquehanna Navigation Company which Brindley worked on ... Cheers Risk Engineer (talk) 19:35, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
