    1. Re: Coal Miner Epidemic/cause of death
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Heath, Lincoln, DeMaranville, Braley, McCarty, Lavelette, Sylvester Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kFB.2ACI/1938.1 Message Board Post: I find your posting quite interesting. My g-grandfather was buried 8 August 1922, but we can find nothing more about his death. He was a coal miner. I've wondered about not finding data anywhere and thought maybe he died somewhere else sometime before his burial. Your message has me wondering about the Coal Miner Epidemic. Could he have been contagious and that somehow effected the time of his burial?
