I'm not sure if you've seen this already, but there are some statistics and sources in this article: http://mises.org/etexts/childlabor.pdf

Child Labor in the United States

For statistics in general, I usually check everything on mises.org from articles, to blogs, to the forums here. The people who make and make up this website are brilliant.

If I had a cake and ate it, it can be concluded that I do not have it anymore. HHH

That's what I ended up having to use but there must be more records than just 1880, 1900 and 1930
