Notes

  1. These two shafts were shown on the Federal Land Bank report map. The 1885 Coal Report indicates that an escapement shaft had been sunk, and a second hoist shaft was being sunk. The uncertain location points shown on the accompanying map may indicate the location of the escapement and second hoist shafts for this mine.
  2. Production before 1878 is not known.
  3. The location was plotted on the 1:24000 USGS topographic with reference to the streets (Broad and Elm) shown on the Sanborn Insurance Company’s maps.
