hello Jane, I have read about and researched about the Triangle Shirtwast fire for many years now. Currently I am reading a book from the Dear America Series called "Hear My Sorrow." it is fictional but based on facts story about a woman who was a shirtwast worker in New York in 1909-1911. Also, I collect antique Singer and Pfaff sewing machines. I want to tell you when I added my first industrial machine, a Singer model 96-89, I named her Rose in honour of your great Aunt. I was so impressed by her devotion to working to improve worker's working lives that I wanted her to be part of my sewing machine herd. I hope you don't think this is silly. I intend it with utmost respect and honour. -carylanne baire702@gmail.com
