Sidney is where the Monarch nc lathes were built, I think. Cortland NY for the mills, Sidney for the lathes.My wife recently started collecting and refurbing (and cooking in) old American cast iron pans. Seems like Sidney was a successful industrial city in olden times.

From the very valuable history of Monarch by John Legge here: http://www.lathes.co.uk/monarch/monarch-History.pdf
we see that Allen P. Wagner figured in the early history of the formation of the company and later W.H. Wagner was vice president. I expect A.P. and W.H. were related. John, anyone, know if they are of the same Wagner family as had Wagner Ware? Sidney not being that big a city I'd think so but don't know for sure.
I think Lodge is the only large maker of cast iron cook ware still producing in the US though I expect there are smaller scale "artisanal" makers active.
