This is a listing of all names on the June 1-15, 1906 payroll for George's Creek Coal and Iron Company. To see the tons a miner dug, the deductions for rent, the smith and the doctor, go to the individual miner's record.

Some names are repeated. Both names are included as they may represent different individuals or show payments received by one individual for different task, for example mining and providing ties or props.
