United States of America / Re: Canfield Coal Mine (No2) explosion, Coal Creek, Colorado 1888 (Completed)

To finish the story - I found James Wallace listed under the non-fatal accidents in the annual report of the state inspector of coal mines in 1888. His brother did die in the explosion but James returned to Scotland with his family and died in 1914.

Find My Past only has information on his death - 26th April 1942, Public Hospital Kingston. Cause of death was Pyouephrosis. Death wasn't registered until May 11th. He is, however, listed in a number of other trees. Contacting the owners may give you more information.

Thank you for your help. I've had a look at the death certificate and it is the correct person which is strange as all the newspaper reports had him at death's door from his injuries. I will keep digging.

United States of America / Canfield Coal Mine (No2) explosion, Coal Creek, Colorado 1888
« on: Sunday 15 June 25 18:58 BST (UK) »
Henry Wallace (b1850, Kettle, Fife, Scotland) was killed in an explosion at the Canfield Coal Mine in 1888. Newspaper articles on the incident mention his brother, James Wallace (b1843, Scotland) as being badly injured and not expected to survive. I can't find any information on what happened to James and was hoping that someone might be able to help. Many thanks.

Canada Lookup Request / Re: John F Sinclair

Appreciate you trying. It would make searching so much easier if the middle name was used. I did come across a marriage of a John Sinclair and Margaret Trindle in 1939 but wasn't sure if it was the correct person.

He was born in South Queensferry, Scotland in 1904 and turns up on the 1931 Canadian census living in the Flin Flon Settlement in Manitoba. He is not on the National Registration File of 1940. I am revisiting my search and am posting in the hopes that someone maybe able to help me to move a little closer to finding out what happened to him. Any suggestions would be welcome.
