Georges Creek Coal & Iron Company
by William Fugera
Years ago I lived in Cumberland, Maryland. I had heard of the Georges Creek area but never paid much attention to it. After acquiring Georges Creek Coal and Iron Company scrip, which was used in Farmington, West Virginia, from 1903 - 1909, I became curious about the company and coal mining in western Maryland. I decided to do further research.
This list may include duplicates as some of the handwriting was difficult to decipher. For example Thomas Beaman may be the same person as Thomas Beeman, but there appeared to be two different spellings. The inclusion of initials also added confusion. It is possible that J F Somerville, John Somerville and John F Somerville are the same person, but they are included here as three listings in case they are indeed three different people.
