Workers at Stella Mines in Stellaville

Portrait of workers at Stella Mines. Caption with photograph reads: Willis Warren Wells is the tall, thin faced man in the back row, seventh from the right. This building is not the ore-processing mill. The open-ended building seen faintly in the upper left corner, however, may be the railroad repair shop and its elevated track. This would put this building, probably the machine shop, on low ground near Stella Mine No. 1. Perhaps the Wells’ Stellaville neighbor, Peter Filiatrault, and the older brothers of Lucille Wells, John and Warren Wells, are shown here. Photo from the Wells family collection. Circa 1910. In Stellaville, a hamlet of De Kalb, NY. Photo by Stella Garret.
