Miner Information:
I don't know very much about my grandfather, but his daughter (my mother) said he talked about Scranton and Altoona. His birth and death dates are approximate. The dates given are all approximate except for the birth and death dates of Veronica. He arrived through Ellis Island and was immediately put on a train heading for PA. He left the mines around 1916 and went to live in Lowell, Ma. There is so much unknown about his life due to misunderstandings and an unwillingness to talk about the mines and the terrible conditions.
