What sort of miners? There are records of Cornish tin miners. Try googling coal miners, and area. May throw something up. maggie

I found some records for my grandfather in the local archives offices (West Riding Yorks) and was told the NUM have most other records. There's the Coal Mining History Resource Centre site which has all sorts of interesting data http://www.cmhrc.pwp.blueyonder(.)co(.)uk/ Cazza

Basically no; there's nothing "official" online. If some enthusiastic amateur has the inclination to have found some records and type things in then you might find something on a specific colliery by Googling. Possibly a local branch of the NUM might have some records.
