Edward Tervelich Jones was killed in the disaster at Scofield, Utah. May 1st, 1900. Winter Quarters #4, a coal mine exploded, and 200 miners were killed. Over the past century, many of the original wooden headboards were lost and many of the locations of the graves are also lost. Here, on find a grave, I hope to record each of the 200 and those unidentified will be recorded in a virtual grave. Here these can be visited and their memory kept intact.
Consider if you will, Edward Jones is 13 years old. I think he was the youngest killed here. Several of the younger dead accompanied dad into the mine to help out, to apprentice so that in time they can step right into a coal mining job. What a shame.
