Breaker boys still worked in mines around
Pottsville PA into the 1930’s. Both my father and uncle were working as breaker boys when they were 9 and 10 years old in 1933. They both went into the mines full-time by age 12 and 13. So I disagree with the statement that this practice ended in the 1920’s.

I feel this article would work better as one that covers all employees working at coal breakers, with a subsection on the use of child labour. --

Since there hasn't been editing on it and you say it's near GA status, you can make the tweaks yourself if it's all it needs.

Although it is not customary to do so, if there is a request to do so, I could do minor editing and pass it as a GA.
