Mine Name: | Schureman Mine | ||
Start Date: | Pre 1874 | End Date: | 1905 |

Acres after map date: | General Area of mining acres shown: | ||
The source map for the Consolidated Coal Company of St. Louis mines in this area is very poor, and the boundaries between the separate mines could not be distinguished. The acreage reported is the total for mine index numbers 3513, 3515, 3517 and 3518. |

Company | Mine Name | Date | Production (tons) |
William Skellett | Skellett | pre1874-1886 | 121,359 Production and ownership prior to 1882 are unknown. The Coal Report of 1882 indicates 120 acres were mined. The Coal Report of 1884 stated that the Skellett Mine was adjacent to and operated co-jointly with the Schureman mine. Because the source maps of this area are poor and the boundary between the two mines cannot be distinguished, the Skellett mine was not given a separate index number. |
Consolidated Coal Company of St. Louis | Skellett | 1886-1887 | 9,519 Production and ownership prior to 1882 are unknown. The Coal Report of 1882 indicates 120 acres were mined. The Coal Report of 1884 stated that the Skellett Mine was adjacent to and operated co-jointly with the Schureman mine. Because the source maps of this area are poor and the boundary between the two mines cannot be distinguished, the Skellett mine was not given a separate index number. |
Schureman Brothers | Schureman | pre1882-1886 | 159,766 Production and ownership prior to 1882 are unknown. The Coal Report of 1882 indicates 30 acres were mined. |
