United Mine Workers of America Anthracite Coal Strike of 1902 in Scranton, Pennsylvania
My Great Grandfather, Thomas E. Davey, came over from Lands End, Cornwall, England and worked in the coal mines in Scranton, PA when he was a young man in the late 1800's. He and his wife, Margaret Sackett Davey settled down eventually in Hallstead, PA. Thomas E. Davey probably worked in the mines at Scranton during the time of the great Anthracite Coal Strike of 1902.
