Hi Clare, Thank you for a really good site. Lots of mine were miners in the Durham, Northumberland and Cumberland area so I am sure to find this site both interesting and informative. Well done Regards Anne-Marie |

Dear Clare What a brilliant site!! Couldn't find any of my family but I'm sure people will find it really helpful. How sad though that some of the miners who died were as young as 7!! Breaks your heart! Best wishes Maria |
