My grandfather immigrated to the US that year and was soon working in the garment industry and joined the union in the 1910s. He was profiled in an Amalgamated Garment Workers Union newspaper, probably in the late 1960s or early 1970s, given information in the article. He was the superintendent of the Crawford Men's Clothing company for decades until they closed.  Any ideas on how to find out more? I have a copy of the undated article, but my inquiries have gone unanswered.
