Shelby, near Lay Lake in Shelby County, was home to the Shelby Iron Company. Its furnaces, built in 1849 and 1863, were a major source of pig iron for the Confederacy, supplying the Selma arsenal with iron for heavy cannon and naval armor plate; iron plating from the works was used on the ironclads CSS Tennessee, CSS Huntsville and CSS Tuscaloosa.
During the war the Shelby Iron Company Railroad connected the works to Columbiana and the Alabama and Tennessee River Railroad. On March 31, 1865, a detachment of General Emory Upton's division of Wilson's Raiders destroyed the ironworks. The furnaces were rebuilt in 1873 and operated until 1923.
