Although these are Black Country web-sites , they may enlighten you a little.
a)www.sedgleymanor.com ->search the site->black country nail making trade.
b)Cradley Links website ->People->Sir Frank Short-interesting to know that some iron for nails came from F of D.
Although this was a much bigger deal in the BC, no doubt the methods and conditions were similar to F of D,as it was still small scale, but more of it..So you may be able to flesh out your family a bit!
