In 1902, in the year that Verdie Dewees was born, about 150 thousand United Mine Workers went on strike in eastern Pennsylvania for a wage increase and more suitable hours. They eventually got a 10% raise and their workday was reduced from 10 hours to 9. Because winter was coming and most people at the time heated their homes with coal, President Teddy Roosevelt arbitrated between the owners and the workers - the first time that the Federal government arbitrated in a strike.

In 1925, at the age of 23 years old, Verdie was alive when gangster Al "Scarface" Capone took over the Chicago bootlegging racket at age 26.
