This research suggests that copper mining camps in the Far Western United States offered unique opportunity for foreign born individuals. Working-class individuals from Mexico, Ireland, Italy, and to a lesser extent, China, were able to not only find jobs in Jerome, but could expect some degree of upward advancement. This occupational opportunity was tied to the managerial policies of the United Verde mine owner, William Andrews Clark, the economic stability afforded by long-term, deep-shaft copper mining, job potential in numerous, smaller mines, and a flourishing business district. Not only did foreign born individuals experience upward mobility in terms of occupation, but they also saw increases in home ownership, the education of their children and social and political involvement.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Through one hundred percent sampling of federal manuscript census data, and other local records, the development of specific ethnic communities from the years 1890 through 1910 was made possible. Not only did the research shed light on the impact of immigrant individuals on the development of the western frontier, it provoked questions concerning the role of investment capitalism and non-discriminatory managerial policies in the successful development of a large-scale copper mine.
