Centre Furnace

History of Centre and Clinton Counties, John B Linn, 1883, p275

"Centre Furnace was once the most flourishing place in the township. It contains about six or eight houses, a saw-mill, the ruins of the first blast furnace erected in Centre County, also tile residence and private grounds of Moses Thompson, Esq. The house has recently been repaired and improved by Mr. Thompson.  A beautiful stream of spring-water runs through the grounds. Below the furnace some distance is the Centre Furnace Flouring-Mill, owned by Mr. Thompson."
