Notes
- ↑ The outline shown is a general area of mining that includes other mines. One of these mines operated about 1850, and ownership and production are unknown. Production for the Lowery Mine indicates approximately 2 acres were mined.
- ↑ Coal Section mine notes indicate this mine may have been known as Saline Coal Company. The 1950 mined out area map used for the outline of the general area mining also had some text indicating a Saline River Mine, circa 1850, operated in this area.
