Company | Mine Name | Date | Production (tons) |
Frank Shrameck | Wabash | 1879-1886 | 114,058 The new hoist shaft, constructed in 1884-1885, was equipped with engines and boiler from the Gaffney mine, whose location and dates of operation are unknown. Production from July 1879 to June 1882 unknown. |
P. Wonderly Coal Company | Wonderly | 1886-1897 The mine was abandoned due to flooding, reported in the Edwardsville Intelligencer, 10-26-1897, 10-29-1897, and 11-23-1897. Apparently the old Shrameck workings were filled with water and when a hole was drilled for powder, the drilling broke into the old works. After a month of pumping, the attempt to restore the Wonderly mine to production was deemed ineffective, and the mine abandoned. Schrameck’s main shaft used for the air shaft of the Wonderly mine. This strongly implies that portions of the older mine were part of the Wonderly mine, but a plat of the older workings were not available to the mine in 1897, which caused the water break-through. The newspaper articles stated that the last owner of the mine was G. H. Donnewald, although the company name remained P. Wonderly Coal Company. | 206,088 |
