I just bought an interesting piece of history on Ebay, The Proceedings of the American Federation of Labor from 1889-1892. At the time the booklet was written, the secretary keeping the minutes was Christopher Evans of New Straitsville. So this booklet will be in the NSHG archives. It hasn't even been shipped yet and I just want to see whose names are at the meetings, nationally, and from Ohio. The records might be boring but that was a dynamic time in labor history in this country so I hope to glean a little knowledge.
