Notes

  1. The dates of operation are from the field notes. Parkinson was not listed in the Coal Reports. No production was reported in Wabash County from 1882 to 1901 or from 1904 to 1917. Unreported production is likely. However, a sketched map by John Schwadtner, who worked in the mine, stated little coal was worked.
