James Brindley's nephew was a canal engineer Suggestion[edit]

James Brindley, the younger (1745-1820) worked with his uncle until the latter’s death and then emigrated to America in 1774.^[1] 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. ^[1] George Washington promoted Brindley and "spoke well of him". ^[1]

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)[reply]
