The ledger was personally viewed and digitally photographed at the Pennsylvania State Archives in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in July 2006. The Pennsylvania Bureau of Mines Inspectors were appointed by the state governor to inspect the states active bituminous and anthricite coal mines, on a regular basis, which was considered to be at least once every 3 (three) months; to oversee, recommend and enforce safety procedures and regulations, as set forth by the laws of the state of Pennsylvania and regulated by the Department of Internal Affairs of Pennsylvania. The Inspectors of the Bureau of Mines had no authority or jurisdiction over small mines employing fewer than 10 people in respect to the then current mining regulations. Inspectors were required to record information regarding, production tonnage, the number of employees including individual employee positions and status, review daily record books of the Mine Foreman and Fire Bosses, investigate accidents, both fatal and non-fatal, exam ventilation equipment, record air flow, gas readings and monitour dust levels. Year end reports included information regarding the amounts of explosives used in production, inspections of haulage roads, safety equipment, verification of adequate egress/exits in operations and drainage. Counts of the animals used both inside and outside of the workings were regularly recorded as were the number of coke ovens located on site. Mine inspectors were also required to test miners looking to improve their positions within the operations and conduct the required testing programs for certification of mine foremen and fire bosses. This ledger holds basic information pertaining to each bituminous coal mine that was regulated by the states authority, listing the mine name, the mine owners or operators, their county location and simple notations listing the dates of each inspection. The State of Pennsylvania, during the 1900-1901 time period, was divided into mining districts as referenced here by county, many of these districts overlapped one another. 1st Bituminous District - Allegheny, Fayette, Green, Washington and Westmoreland counties. 2nd Bituminous District - Allegheny, Indiana and Westmoreland counties. 3rd Bituminous District - Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Clarion, Jefferson, Lawrence, Mercer and Indiana counties. 4th Bituminous District - Jefferson, Elk, Clearfield, Tioga, Clinton, Cameron, Centre, Lycoming, McKean, Armstrong and Bradford counties. 5th Bituminous District - Bedford, Fayette and Somerset counties. 6th Bituminous District - Cambria and Somerset counties. 7th Bituminous District - Allegheny, Washington and Beaver counties. 8th Bituminous District - Butler, Clearfield, Jefferson, Indiana and Centre counties. 9th Bituminous District - Fayette, Somerset, Westmoreland, Allegheny and Bedford counties. 10th Bituminous District - Clearfield, Bedford, Blair, Cambria, Huntington, Indiana, Jefferson, Centre and Cameron counties. 11th Bituminous District -Cambria, Clearfield, Somerset, Westmoreland and Fayette counties. 12th Bituminous District - Armstrong, Indiana, Jefferson, Cambria, Centre and Clearfield counties. 13th Bituminous District - Allegheny, Westmoreland and Washington counties. 14th Bituminous District - Allegheny, Beaver and Westmoreland counties. 15th Bituminous District - Cambria, Centre, Clearfield and Indiana counties. This listing recognizes each of these state bituminous coal districts, the duly appointed inspectors of each district, and if I was able to identify, the individual township and/or the nearest town, city or station to the listed mines. Many of the township locations were verified using inheritated historical records, maps and personal diaries which belonged to my great-great- grandfather, Roger Hampson, who is listed as an inspector within these transcriptions.

March 1885 - a member of the Pennsylvania State Commission which was appointed to adopt revisions to the Mining and Ventilation Laws in the Bituminous Coal Regions of Pennsylvania.

Clearfield Note: This page ends the complete transcription of the 1900 Bituminous Coal Mining District-Mine Inspectors Ledger which is held at the Pennsylvania State Archives, part of Records Group 45, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. This is also a tribute to the tremendous legacy left by my great great grandfather, Roger Hampson, and a true labor of love which has brought his and his fellow State Mine Inspectors accomplishments' back to life. Special thanks need go out to all the volunteers at the USGenWeb Project and the PaGenWeb Project, for providing the knowledge and assistance in making these sites possible and their continued pledge in making and keeping historical and genealogical information "free and accessible" to everyone. Thank you also to my good friend and research companion, Lesa VanSon, of Attica NY, for her great camera skills and patience, to whom without her help,this transcription would not have been possible. I am forever in their debt for their support in allowing me to easily share with my fellow "Pennsylvania Coal Mining Enthusiasts", this historically significant data.
