15 year old office boy in the office of N.Y., N.H. & H.R.R. coal yard, January 29, 1917. My grandfather was doing this same job, about this same year, for the Cunard Steam Ship Company in San Fransisco. He was 13 years old. A great grandfather had occupied the same job, a few decades earlier, also as a teenager, in an insurance company.
