It's been a century and a half since the country was rocked with
the news that a "monster mill" in Lawrence, Massachusetts,
collapsed while hundreds of employees were at work. The Pemberton
Mill in 1860 was like others - huge, productive, but not safe for
employees. The Pemberton Casualties tells the stories of the 1,003
men, women, and children - oh, so many children! - who were to
suffer and die in this disaster. On these pages, the reader will
find the names of every one of the thousand. Charts show ages,
addresses, and even their final month's wages. Genealogists will
find this a gold mine awaiting their searching.
