Miner Information:  
Lived in Port Griffith; grew up in home immediately next to the Knox Mine (that property, as well as the property where the Knox Mine was located, still belongs to family members). Worked in the coal mines for at least seven years (that I’m aware of), mostly at the Ewen Colliery. Difficult to find out detailed information about him, as family members who knew him, including my father, are all deceased. However, I do have a mint condition paystub of his from the Ewen dated December 1951.
