Names Map

The Names Map below displays the name, home address, likely age, country of origin, and final resting place of all known Triangle Fire victims.

To search or filter the data available about the victims, please visit the Triangle Fire Victims Data Table and apply the desired data filter. Please feel free to use the map on your own website!

The Names Map was created for the Chalk project based on the list provided by David von Drehle in Triangle: The Fire that Changed America and updated based on the Kheel Center list, John Leonard, and the input of many Triangle family members. Thank you to Leon Stein for paving the way!

A special thank you to John Schimmel for designing and maintaining this map.

Names and ages of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire victims

The following list of names is an updated version of that which appears on the Kheel Center site Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire victims list. These are the names and ages that will be stenciled into the Triangle Fire Memorial. If a name or age has been changed from the Kheel Center site, it was for one or more of the following reasons:

  • family members found an error on the Kheel Center site and asked that we correct it for the memorial
  • we found an error on the Kheel Center site (i.e., obvious misspelling, name and/or age that differs from the US birth certificate and/or other historical documents, some of which were not available when the Kheel Center list was compiled)
  • we recalculated age as of March 25, 1911 (the Kheel Center had determined age by year of birth without regard for day/month)
  • the Italian name/age contradicts documentation provided to us by Italian scholar Ester Rizzo Licata, who obtained original birth certificates for Italian Triangle workers from their hometown archives for her book Camicette Bianche.

A few words about the Italian names: We have listed the three Italian sisters who were married by their family names, followed by their married names so they can be grouped together. In cases where Italian names have been Anglicized or incorrectly recorded on the death certificate, we deferred to the Italian birth certificate, as well as US census records and grave markers.
