    3. Gypsy Grove would be the correct spelling of the location. Remember that names and locations would be spelled phonetically. The transcribers of the 1910 soundex had a lot of trouble when they typed up their cards as well :). An article on the April 1911 fire at the Gypsy Grove appears on the PA Lackawanna page under mining history. -----Original Message----- From: Kathryn L.
