Jenell, You may want to try the United States Geological Survey website. Once there, choose the geographic names section and submit your query: Dines WY mine sweetwater etc. I did. It came back with about four coal mines on the 7.5' map sheet named Reliance. You can also display the map and aerial photography. this URL should take you right to the form to submit the query: http://mapping.usgs.gov/www/gnis/gnisform.html If that doesn't work, go to www.usgs.gov and work in from there. ----- Original Message ----- From: <JPharissra@aol.com> To: <AKERS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, December 28, 2000 1:10 PM Subject: Wy > Hi every one > I am searching for information on a Coal Mine in Dines, WY, believe to be > in the county of Sweetwater.

Hi every one I am searching for information on a Coal Mine in Dines, WY, believe to be in the county of Sweetwater. It probaly is deserted by now, but could any one tell me just where abouts this is located at , what town is it closes to. My husband and his parents lived there back in the mid -late 1940's... He did know that it was in the valley of the hills in that area, and as a kid in the winter time, they had to walk a good mile over the hills to get to the bus stop....any info on this coal mine, would be appreciated. Also, if you know of a website that might have any info , such as a map etc. Thank you jenell

Here's wishing each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas ; Hanaka; and New years, and a safe one............May the good Lord Bless and keep you all jenell
