RemarksMine map [1] shows: 1 pumping shaft & 1 slope opening; Scotch air shaft & Vinegar Hill entries not

shown on map (1890). Connected with the Ohltown mine. Shaft, 113' x 6' x 8', opened in 1870 by

Case, Thornton, & Co. on the old Cleveland farm in Austintown Twp. [58]. The John Henry mine

and the Thornton mine are believed to be the same mine. This mine connects with the Ohltown

mine (Mg-44). Coal identified by elevation.
