Sorry to disagree with this posting. My great grandfather worked for the Tamarack Mining Company. The records for this company are NOT in the C&H Mine employment records. They are filed separately, as are other mining company records. If your search does not find the record you want with the C&H Company, check the other companies as well. C&H did not take over all the other mining companies until the 1910s or 1920s.

And the best information at MTU in in the C&H Mine employment records, they cover all mines, counties, and you are in those records whether you worked in the mine or not. They owned everything. So you were in their employment. Pat (Korby) Dickow. P.S. The posts did go through yesteryday, just acted crazy. I had the same problem. *************************************** This is a themed mail list for discussion of genealogical research and the history of Houghton Co. Michigan.
