Rita, Thanks for the info. The reason I was looking for Frank's obit is his sister, Mary's first husband, John was also killed in the mine. Mary remaried to Boleslaw Polujan between 1915 and 1919 when my grandmother, Violet was born, she could only remember that her mother's first husband's name was John & that he was about 17 yrs.old. None of the Johns that are listed fit what info I have. I was hoping that there were obits and it listed family info.

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.

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. > > Thank you, > Brenda Heibert-Conkel --------------------------------- How low will we go? Check out Yahoo!
