Nanty Glo, PA, is a borough found in Cambria County. The name is derived from the Welsh phrase “Nant Y Glo,” which means “The Ravine (or brook) of Coal.” The community originated in the 1890s, and was called Glenglade. 

During the late 1800s and early 1900s, coal mining became the dominant industry in Nanty Glo. The first commercial mine was dug in 1896 by Dr. James W. Dunwiddie. In 1940, the town of Nanty Glo was described in the Pennsylvania guide as “a valley coal town wrapped in a mist of sulfurous gas. Four large bituminous coal mines support the town, which was founded in 1888 as a lumber camp. Rows of yellow shacks extend back from the central mine. Some, flanked by mine heaps, cling to the mountain sides.”
