Dolly Boyard Friend | |
Over the many years of Old Morgantown's history, the factory saw many who spent countless hours dedicating their lives making a living and in the process producing some of the finest hand-blown glass in America. Dolly Boyard Friend was another person who started a career early in her life, which was common during the period. In the early 1900's a young woman at the age of 16, Dolly, joined in the workforce at the Economy Tumbler Company in Morgantown, West Virginia. Here she began working with the highly-trained labor force and the skilled artisans learning what was to become a impressionable part of her life. We are happy to meet Dolly Boyard Friend.
