Harriet Firth BLACKBURN

1892 - 1984

Cotton weaver of Blackburn, Lancashire

Narrative and Notes

Harriet Firth BLACKBURN lived to the age of 92.

When she was 8 years old, her family suffered a catastrophe with her father and four of her younger siblings dying suddenly, possibly in a house fire. She survived, but the physical or mental effects may have scared her for life, and, like her sister Elizabeth, she never married.
