It is now the Wisconsin Steel Mills and a subsidiary of U.S. Steel.  One living granddaughter of Jonah Thorne, a daughter of the Perry Clarks, is Mrs. Etta Vories, age 79, of Port Huron, Mich. She will be in Lowell for centennial festivities.  Other descendants, many living in Lowell, are Walter James, Getti Powell, Mrs.Agnes Machacek, Mrs. Iva Nichols, Mrs. Alice Ruley, Myrtle Johnson, Thorne Clark, Millard, Virginia and Margaret Clark.

Phebe (Richmond) Thorne was living in Lowell, Lake Co., Indiana, in 1860, with her husband Jonah and others. Her 18 year old daughter, Sarah Jane, was living with her husband, Perry D. Clark, also in Lake County, Indiana.  Daughter (Lauretta) Abigail and her husband, John Ault were living in Allen Co., Kansas, in 1860.
