Who made a mill town for girls in Massachusetts?

I believe you are referring to Lowell, a city about 45 minutes from Boston. Neither Lowell nor the mills were specifically made for girls, but factory owners recruited females, especially young females, most often; girls and young women could be paid less money than men, and they had excellent manual dexterity. While some owners were reasonably humane towards their young female workers, others were harsh and cruel, pressuring the girls to do more, yet paying them lower and lower wages. Ultimately, there were several labor strikes in Lowell over pay and working conditions. Today, Lowell has several tourist attractions where the original mills have been re-opened as museums, and you can see first-hand what the young women did there and the conditions they worked under.
