Imagine you are a worker in a factory in the Industrial Revolution period Write an account of your life?

Answer 1

I was born into a very poor family in 1742. By the age of 7 I was working in the mines. But then I got a jod in a factory producing pots and pans for the women. The steam wngine had been around since 1712 and we had 2. But it may have been easier to make the produce ourselves as we had to constsantly shovel heavy, blaack coal into the machine. The employers liked it as it produced things faster, turned the wheels more quickly. At the age of 56 I am still suffering from the heavy coal carrying from when I was 7 - 10 years old. It has left me with deformaties, lots of people have them. It's better being up here though, than in the pits.
