    1. [COLEGROVE] Coal Gas Kills Brick Plant Worker Stanley C Colegrove con't
    2. Binghamton NY Press 1962 Coal Gas Kills Brick Plant Worker By DICK VENIZELOS (Continued From Pg 21) as a continuous feeder Into four tubes. The coal drops from the tubes Into a fire. The fire gives off the gas that moves out a 24-lnch pipe into the kiln where the bricks are fired. I Norman T. Fulkrod, plant superintendent, said the gas-producing bins are watched around the clock. HE SAID the firm's fireman, In this case Mr. VanValkenburg, checks the top bin every four hours to make certain the coal is not clogging In the chute. When the check Is made, a second man goes along as a precautionary m e a s u r e , Mr. Fulkrod said. Yesterday, because of the cold weather and snow, the superintendent said, the coal apparently stuck in the chute and it was necessary to shovel it free. The coal fumes, which are odorless, he said, come up through the coal from the fur nace. "Normally you can stay up there two or three minutes and nnot feel any 111 effects,' Mr. Fulkrod said. "I've gotten siek up there myself, but never so much that 1 couldn't get out. I can't figure out why they couldn't get out." HE ADDED, "It (the fumes) can sneak up on you fast." Clarence Austin, the firm's president, said the company has been making its own gas since about 1037. He aald natural gas "is very expensive.'.' Producing your own gas, he said, "Is the cheapest way" to fuel the kilns. He said many brick plants In the eastern area of the United States produce their own gas with anthracite coal. Anthracite is less expensive than soft coal in the Binghamton area because of the proximity of the mines in the Scranton area, he said. Mr. Austin said the brick company was founded by his father In 1916. He said that for a time coal and oil were used as fuel and then natural gas was used briefly in the mld-1930s. MR. COLEGROVE had worked as a laborer for the brick-making firm about seven years. Friends said he was born in LeRaysvllle, Pa. and attended school there. They said Mr. Colegrove, now divorced, has three sons in the LeRaysvllle area. His mother lives In Rummerfield, near Towanda. she was notified about her son's death by Towanda state police last night His sons were identified by a Pennsylvania minister last night as Stanley Joseph, 19, Joseph Anthony, 16, and Francis Ed ward, 13. He said they live with their mother, since remarried, In LeRaysvllle RD 1, near Wyalusing. Arrangements were being made to remove Mr. Colegrove's body to Pennsylvania for the funeral. MR. COLEGROVE, who has lived at 3 Pine Street about seven years, was described as a "very likeable, hard-working fellow" by his landlady, Mrs. Jennie Rogers. Coroner Vincent M. Maddl said a blood test Indicated that Mr. Colegrove died from carbon monoxide poisoning caused by coal gas. Dr. Maddi said he was withholding a verdict temporarily. There was one facet of the tragedy which could not be, explained Immediately by plant personnel. Newsmen, in a tour of the plant, were shown a sheet that the man tending the gas-producer signs every hour as he makes his rounds. It was noted that Mr. VanValkenburg had .signed and made other markings on the sheet opposite "3 p. m." MR. FULKROD SATO the sheet sometimes Is marked a half hour in advance, but noted that the timing of the accident indicated it had been signed yesterday about 1H hours or more in-ad-- vance. Mrs. Orzelek's call to police was followed a few minutes later by a call from George Zyck, manager of the West End Brewing Co., which has offices adjacent to the brick company. Mr. Zyck said he was just leaving the office when he "heard a voice hollering for help." Two men from the Division of Safety of the State Labor Department today were making what was termed a routine investigation of the accident.

    2. Hello Bob, I've actually been working on my COLEGROVE roots since before 2001 but I am now at a point in my research where I can begin to share more information. Terry's research has been of a great help to me in researching in location specific areas, as I hope my research has been of help to others. I'm certain that I have other old newspaper articles on Charles Henry's family. Mostly social tidbits and such... Lately, I have turned to collecting any and all Colegrove related newspaper articles in order to help me sort some of my data and place persons in their proper families. Here is a small article I found on Dwight Colegrove's daughter Evelyn that may be of interest to you if you do not already have it: Newspaper: Utica NY Observer Dispatch 1937 Tuesday, August 24, 1937 ANNOUNCEMENT has been made of the engagement of Miss Evelyn Colegrove daughter of the late Judge Dwight H.

    3. Hello Casandra, Have not seen your name before. Are you working with Terry on Colegrove genealogy? This obit you sent was for my great grandfather. 12/31/1864 was actually his wedding day. Somewhere I have a clipping published on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary 12/31/1914. The obit is correct, however the subject line should read Charles Henry, instead of Asa. There were three Charles Henrys. Asa was this one's grandfather I believe. I think they are all in the rootsweb tree. Thanks for the email. I had never seen his obit before.

    1. [COLEGROVE] Coal Gas Kills Brick Plant Worker Stanley C colegrove
    2. Binghamton NY Press 1962 Coal Gas Kills Brick Plant Worker By DICK VENIZELOS "This should not have happened. It's not a dangerous job." That was the reaction of Clarence Austin, president of Binghamton Brick Co., as he walked through the tragedy-struck plant yesterday afternoon. Carbon monoxide content of coal gas fumes took the life of one of the firm's employes, contributed to the serious injury 'of another employe and sent three policemen and a rescue volunteer to General Hospital. Dead Is Stanley C. Colegrove, 46, of 3 Pine Street, a laborer whose body was found lying in a coal chute near the top of the 70-foot high building. In General Hospital's Special Care Unit In "serious condition" with a broken back and head injuries is Robert VanValkenburg 24, of Chenango Forks RD I who tends a gas-producing fire for the firm. THE GAS IS USED in making bricks. . The three policemen and the volunteer were sickened by coal gas fumes during the ' rescue attempt. Treated and later discharged from General were these policemen: Sgt. Carl Stoltx, 46, of 29 Schubert Street; Patrolman Harold Barlow, 31,' of 31 Schubert Street, and Patrolman Clayton Dehlman, 42, of 8 Seminary Avenue. The volunteer was Joseph Colavito, 24, of 22 Grlswold Street, who also was discharged after treatment. The Binghamton police ambulance and the sheriff's ambulance each made two separate trips to the hospital. POLICE WERE (summoned to the Broad Street northern extension of Broad Avenue) brickmanufacturing firm at 1:46 p. m. yesterday when a nearby resident, Mrs. Rose Orielek of 42 Travis Avenue, reported she heard a noise that "sounded like someone was in trouble." On arrival, police found a man. later Identified as Mr. VanValkenburg, lying on a scaffold- like walkway outside the building about 40 feet from the ground. An aerial ladder truck from the Robinson Street Fire Station was summoned. In a dramatic rescue that firemen said took, about 30 minutes, Mr. VanValkenburg was tied to a stretcher then was tied to the top of the aerial ladder. The ladder was then lowered slowly. FIRST ASSISTANT Fire Chief John Sedor described the rescue procedure was ticklish and time-consuming. He said the victim was conscious, and "in pain." He said it was the first such rescue in 15 years. During the rescue, Carl Austin, vice-president of the firm and brother of the president, arrived and Immediately asked the whereabouts ot Mr. Vari- Valkenburg's assistant, Mr. Colegrove "I started to run around and hunt for him, but I didn't see him among the spectators," Mr. Austin said The vice - president said he then climbed an inside ladder | to the top of the^bullding. "I looked over into the coal bin and I saw him lying in the bin. I hollered to the firemen," Mr. Austin said. POLICE SAID Mr. Austin shouted for help from a window at the top of the building just as Mr. VanValkenburg was being placed in the police ambulance. Firemen and policemen used a resuscitator and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation In a futile attempt to revive Mr. Colegrove. During the attempt to revive him, Sergeant Stoltz became ill from the odorless coal gas fumes. Police said he went to an open window at the top of the building, and then suddenly fell about 6 feet backward into the coal bin. He was strapped to a stretcher and lowered down a steep, vertical ladder inside the building. SERGEANT STOLTZ said today that be slipped' on some sheet metal on the, floor and fell several feet into the' spare bin, which was directly below the bin where Mr. Colegrove's body was found. The coal gas was strong in there and I couldn't get out alone." He said. He said he was surrounded by fumes in the spare biin and had trouble breathing Two firemen removed him from the bin. He said he fell while he and others were working to revive Mr Colegrcvc. who had been removed from the_. bin and placed on an Inside catwalk^ -. ' >;: *" Sergeant Stoltz quoted Mr. Van- Valkenburk as saying that he had been lying on the outside walkway calling for help for "about two hours." However, the sergeant added, Mr. VanValkenburg was "pretty woozy." PATROLMAN BARLOW and Dehlman also became ill from the fumes while they were working to revive Mr. Colegrove. Police said Mr. Colavito became ill while he was carrying oxygen bottles from the ground to the top of the building where officers were working on Mr. Colegrove. Chief Sedor quoted Mr. Van: Valkenburg as saying that he and his assistant were in the top of the building tryling to loosen some coal that was stuck in the chute. The two men began to feel the effects of coal gas and tried to escape, each of them beading toward an open window. AS HE REACHED the window, Mr. VanValkenburg apparently collapsed and fell, some 20 feet to the outside walkway, Chief Sedor said. Mr. Colegrove apparently collapsed and fell back into the bin, the assistant chief said. The coal bin where the men had been working is the top compartment in a gas-producing process. The coal is lifted to the bin by an automatic elevator. It drops from the bin into another circular spare bin that works (Continued on Page 23) http://fultonhistory.com/Fulton.html
