NY History

Who knows NY history? I am looking for info on a fire around the turn of the century where women were locked in *.Shirt Factory. This changed the course of working conditions. Does anyone remember the year or the factory's full name? I remember that they burned and they jumped. That is tragic. Listening to Flogging Molly's "FACTORY GIRLS" just gives me that image. The influx of immigrants into NY and their demise in order to succeed. Someone help me. I give brownie points! JK of course. They look like Gibson Girls...does this help? 5/27/06
