The Iriquois had many blacksmiths and gunsmiths in their country in Central New York.

One family named Jordan/Jourdan/Jerden accounted for several of them and at least one is so identified in Revolutionary War records.

I believe Jourdan is a French name, which is probably where they learned blacksmithing also.
