Betty, I have family in hte Lowell area.  We have a lot of lost years of 
history in this community. Where would be the best place to locate a newspaper 
article about an indutrial accident that claimed the life of one of my grand 
uncles?  This accident happened around 12/20/1906.

>One "family story" is that Elzira "Elsie" MOURA came over at Age 12 to
>work for a family in Boston (~1905),  and, when she had saved enough

>(Their brothers seem to have married first and then came over ~1915.)
