A PML foward received today was a brief report of 2 separate accidents at a coal mine, there were injuries, but none grave in nature. There was a mention of a Dr CRERAR who attended one of the injured men. No further comments on the good Dr., just the mention of his prompt actions. As it was 1882, he might be found in the 1881 Census living nearby. To read the complete Post, go to the Cumberland Mailing List and Browse for today's posts or Search for the word CRERAR - the post probably won't show up until tomorrow though, it takes a bit for them to appear in the Archives. You might further search the Archives [contains all the Posts since the inception of this List] for earlier mentions of his name.
