Yes I do mean New York City.

I think I have posted in the wrong forum. Do you think I should re post in the New York City forum??

Thanks for pointing this out

If you do mean New York City, check out this collection:

Buffalo, NY did not officially exist (as a municipality) in the 18th century. And it didn%26#39;t really get off the ground until 1825, when the Erie Canal was built connecting Bflo to Albany, NY and hence, NYC. It was after this time when an influx of Irish (and German) laborers came to work the docks and the growing industries. Bflo was an important center of the industrial revolution in the USA in the 19th C.

We have had exhibits about the workers and the work they did of the kind the OP is interested, but I don%26#39;t know of one currently.
