Lewis Hine Project-Stories, Page Two

I have located and interviewed descendants of many of the child laborers and their families photographed by Lewis Hine. Some have even provided copies of family photos. For others, I have found significant information, but have been unable to find descendants. Click on the photos and see some of the stories I have uncovered.
