The Connecticut River Valley was quite the industrial powerhouse with many famous manufacturers attracting skilled labor.
FWIW - The Annual Report of the Chief of Ordnance for 1895 mentioned 'profiling' had a minimum pay of $2.00 per day, some milling operations paid as little as $1.00 per day, highest level was $2.50 per day for some polishing, milling, drilling, and filing operations. I'm sure there is much more known on pay scales for various armory jobs. |
