Newport Group Photo, Forged Steel Products Co. Employees, 1926

Below is a large image of the original photograph, followed by an image of the same size with identification numbers, followed by a numbered list of names corresponding to the identification numbers. This page will take a while to load, but any reduction in size would make the faces too small to identify.

This photograph appeared in the Newport News-Sun on Feb. 8, 1984, along with two others of Forged Steel Products Co. employees taken in 1936 and 1939. Please contact Newport Public Library if you have an original photograph of the 1939 shot that we could scan and use on this Web site or if you can identify person #52 in the photo.
