I have been following with considerable interest the material from Grandmother West's Scrapbook, especially the note of May 18th about the coal mine(s) at Davis City. Inasmuch as I am a mining geologist/mining engineer, I would like to learn more about the Davis City coal operations. Does anyone have any other references to these? I can vaguely recall huge heaps of mine waste piled near U.S. 2 over near Corydon, back in the early 1930's. But I had never heard of coal discoveries in Decatur County before. I need to be educated...... Chuck Mallette Houston
