September 1911. Lawrence, Massachusetts. "Group of workers. The small boy in the middle is Secondino Libro, 34 Walnut Street. Apparently 10 or 11. Works in No. 4 Spinning room." View full size. Photo and caption by Lewis Wickes Hine.
A handful of Libros (descendants?) live today in the eastern Massachusetts communities of Gloucester, Marblehead, and the tony suburb of Andover. (None were found in southern New Hampshire, which is a popular destination for former northeastern Massachusetts residents.)
Look at the face on the boy who's on the far left. What an expression!
