Perspectives on the Coal Mines

Six year old girl:"I have been down six weeks and make 10 to 14 rakes [trips] a day; I carry a full 56 lbs. of coal in a wooden bucket. I work with my sister Jesse and my mother. It is dark the time we go."

Jane Peacock Watson."I have wrought [worked] in the bowels of the earth 33 years. I have been married 23 years and had nine children, six are alive and three died of typhus a few years since. Have had two dead born. Horse-work ruins the women; it crushes their haunches, bends their ankles and makes them old women at 40. "

Maria Gooder"I hurry [work] for a man with my sister Anne who is going to be 18. He is good to us. I don't like being in the pit. I am tired and afraid. I go at 4:30 after having porridge for breakfast. I start hurrying at 5. We have dinner at noon. We have dry bread and nothing else. There is water in the pit but we don't sup [drink] it. "

Mary and Rachell Enock, ages 11 and 12 years."We are door-keepers in the four foot level. We leave the house before six each morning and are in the level until seven o'clock and sometimes later. We get 2 pence a day and our light costs us 2 1/2 pence a week. Rachel was in a day school and she can read a little. She was run over by a tram a while ago and was home ill a long time, but she has got over it."

Isabel Wilson, 38 years old."I have been married 19 years and have had 10 bairns [children]:...My last child was born on Saturday morning, and I was at work on the Friday night... None of the children read, as the work is not regular [enough to send them to school]..When I go below my lassie 10 years of age keeps house..."

Imagine You…Industrial Revolution

Imagine You #2…Industrial Revolution

Imagine you are living in England in 1750 (the very beginning of the Industrial Revolution). You go to bed one night, and when you wake, you discover that you’re now in England in 1850. One hundred years have passed, and as you walk through London you are amazed at the changes that have taken place. Describe what this new England looks like from your perspective as someone who has missed the changes taking place during the last century and a half.
