Pièce PH26787 - Thompson Smith's mill

"This week's photo was submitted by Mrs. Dorothy Marks who provided most of the photographic material for the Bradford centennial book now available at the town hall. The building above was the office for Thompson Smith's mill in Amsterdam, a little community of lumber mills just south of Bradford. In the early 19th century, lumber mills flourished south of the river, employing about 150 men. In this photo from the left are Robert Collings, George Taylor, Miss Scott, Mrs. W. McKinstry (Ida Collings), James Spence (seated), Jack Davey, James Scott, Sam Scott, Unidentified, Jack Busby, and Tommy Mulligan."
