Re: My grandmother, Dora Ferman, working in a garment factory

Hello, is your Grandmother Dora Ferman in the photo? If so, which woman is she, there appear to be two women in the shot.
I didn't see her name in the list of victims or survivors of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire that appear on the Cornell site. The reason I ask, is because I also had a grandmother named Dora Ferman, and it's not a name I've seen elsewhere before.

If you were doing research, you would at least know how to spell her name correctly.

Here's a more complete account of the fascinating history of this building. Ironically, it now houses some of the most expensive luxury condos in the area. http://daytoninmanhattan.bl...

Wanted to let Stephen Moses know, if by any chance he sees this, that I have a wonderful painting by his grandmother of Times Square from 1963.

Comments in this chain stated that the owners of the shirt factory just rented the space and were not responsible for the fire escape or building sprinklers; but, anyone with any morality.....anyone who is not a sociopath.....would care about their workers, just enough, so that they would not so easily perish if there should be a fire, or even better, for them to be able to simply leave. It would seem apparent to anyone over the age of 10, that the conditions at this workplace were a recipe for a disaster. And, even worse (as others here started) is that these business owners locked their workers inside the workplace; except, of course, for the windows. When left to their own devices, some will just simply take the path of "recklessness"; clearly, these reckless men were total animals. Perhaps the lord, the higher power, God; gave a mission to these good human beings who perished; in any event, an infinite number of lives have been saved, and so many potential injuries, never occurred. I would like to mention, that, those NYU students who helped workers to safety from the rooftop must not be overlooked, they did all they could. These NYU kids saved many. Left to their own devices; they risked their personal safety, their goodness shined thru. God-Bless them. I walked by the site a few days ago,
I teared-up knowing I cannot change a thing. But, still I wish that a wonderful young lady named Annie Nicholas, and her co-workers, did not have their days taken. Indeed, they all deserved to live long lives. May these heroes rest well.

I am an eighth grader at Jericho Middle school in Jericho, NY and have chosen to research The Triangle Shirtwaist Factore fire for my national history day project. I chose to do a documentary on this topic. I am wondering if I can interview you so I can find out more about your Aunt Rosie?

I am not by any means a Triangle fir expert. In fact I know almost nothing about it other than what one can read on the internet. However, Max Steuer was my great-grandfather. He died before I was born, but from a photo I can see his resemblance to my father and his brother.

Yes I remember my Great Aunt Becky and her children. Her children were my 2nd cousins! They were much older than I. Helen played piano very well, Sylvia lived in Queens and then Florida. I was visiting Silvia in Florida when Helen was met at the airport by me and Silvia. Helen moved in with Silvia. DavId Blum

My great aunt Celia Schein survived the Triangle Fire but died some months later from tuberculosis of the kidneys. She is considered a survivor but did not last long.
