I was wondering if there were obits listed for the miners who died in the Eccles Mine disaster of 28 Apr 1914? If they were I was wondering if someone could look up the obit for Frank Tedys or Teddys or Tedysz or Tettys? He was 17 or 18 yrs. old & his father was Andy & his mother was Mary.

Raleigh County Mine Deaths 1891-2000 Jim Wood Page 31 Tedys, Frank, Polish, car dropper, age 17, single. Frank appears on Jim's list of the miners who were killed April 28, 1914 at Eccles. Frank doesn't appear to be listed in the index of Jim's book, but Frank is on the list of those who lost their lives. Sorry - I don't have an obit.
