Molly asked: "Are there any on line sites for wire mills approx.1880 and
up? This is around the areas of Winter Street,Salisbury,and Hill
streets in Worcester."

Hi Molly,

I too would be interested in online info. In book form, you can find some
info on mills/industry in Worcester in "Eight Hours for What We Will: Workers
& Leisure in an Industrial City, 1870-1920" by Roy Rosenzweig, 1983. It's all
about Worcester, and working-class life/culture/society.
