Youngstown,

A city and county seat of Mahoning county, O.; on the Mahoning River; 67 miles southeast of Cleveland. It was settled by John Young, who, in 1800, purchased from the Connecticut Land Company the site of the present city and the township of the same name. The industrial development of the city began in 1845-46, when the second rolling-mill in the State was erected here as well as the first furnace. The principal industry to-day is the manufacture of iron. Population in 1900, 44,885.
