Some Of The Men That Worked The Cherry Hill
Mine!
Front Row L-R. Randolph Collins or Mr. Hoheimer, Coot Mason, William Scott,
Cecil Johnson or Ben Woodburn's brother, Ben Woodburn, Robert Kennedy, Jake Saling,
and C. L. Marlow.
Back Row L-R. George Leslie Millard, Jeff Curtis, Hulet Curtis, Bertrand "Bert" Reid,
Unknown, Kelly Hyatt.
Originally on this web page, George Millard, or the miner in the back row on the
left was identified as Mitchell Curtis. Mrs. George Millard, from Hartford was
sincere in her belief that the miner was her late husband, namely George Millard.
I compared the features of Mitchell in another picture to that of this new picture,
and was convinced that the man on the left on the back row is not Mitchell. Mitchell's,
height as compared to Hulet and Jeff Curtis, in the earlier picture, helped convince
me that the man in question was not Mitchell. There have been several people tell
me that any picture worth saving is worth writing information on the back of the
pictures that would inform a person looking at the pictures the primary essentials
of the picture. Good advice, but still have a problem with this picture. As the
reader can see, not all men are positively identified and I could use a little help
here as you can see, some of the miners are not identified and some are questionable
with a conflict between two different names. My quest for correct identification
may be forever lost, as time and coal miners seem to fade into oblivion. Each
succeeding generation seems to be losing an important part of their heritage.
Will pass this on down to my survivors for what it will be worth.
Thanks for looking and a future thanks to those of you that can and will help make
this web page better and more correct.
See you......

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs
should relax and get used to the idea.
