 During this era, most Belgians coming to the U.S. were farmers, farm workers or miners; craftsmen (such as carpenters, masons and cabinetmakers) or other skilled tradesmen (such as glass blowers and lace-makers).In later years (especially after the World Wars), many Belgians arrived in the United States seeking work in universities, laboratories and industry.Several Dutch-language newspapers were published by Belgian immigrants, including the "Gazette van Moline" (1907–40) and the "Gazette van Detroit" (1914–2018).
