21. Re: COALMINERS-D Digest V99 #296 [1]
Jim, I enjoyed the information on mining disasters, thank you. Norma, it is the Bureau of Mines in Illinois. Just call the main number in Springfield and ask whether there is a listing under State of Ill. for the Bureau of Mines. Otherwise, it would be State of Ill., Department of Natural Resources, Bureau of Mines. By the way, every year it is my understanding that the list of miners killed in the mines is taken to the state fair. It should be getting about that time. Jodie BOWEN Russu Watergrd
22. CUMBRIA MINE [1]
My gr-gr-grandfather, JAMES BRYDEN, and family was a pit sinker in a coal mine in the Frizington - Arlecdon area according to the 1881 census. The 1896 list of Cumberland's mines only lists Moorside in Arlecedon. Would there have been any other mines in the area that he could have worked at? Is it possible to find out if there are any records of employees? I'd like to know more about his life besides just dates. (Which I still need to verify.) Thanks for any assistance!
