Production Notes
The location is from field notes dated 1927, while production is from 1935 only. The Coal Reports did not list production from 1930 to 1934 for mines producing less than 1,000 tons per year. It is possible that the inspectors missed collecting information from the Hausenkamp Mine in the late 1920s, as no other Hausenkamp Mines were listed in the Coal Reports. However, it is possible that the production listed above does not correspond to the location shown at the top of the page.
