Miner
operating a motor outside of number 5 mine. Maybe someone can
identify him.

"I just came across
your website and was looking at some of the pictures. The one of the
miner operating the motor outside Eccles No 5 I am not really sure
without seeing the picture clearer but I think it is my Dad. He
retired in the early 70's from there and him and his brother had both
worked there forever. I just wish the picture was a little clearer and
then I could tell you for sure but am almost sure from what I see, he
was always a motorman at Eccles for as long as I can remember."

Ernest Smith Fleenor and my uncle was
