Flipping through the list of names. Mom who is George McMullen? You're great uncle, he died in the mine.
Very unnerving. I also found my dad's relative in here. :/ I can't believe I knew nothing of this.

My parents came up for a visit. I showed them this book &heard a story like no other. My Greatgrandfather had the day off or he would have been killed. I also heard stories from the disaster I'd never heard before.
It's left me rattled for some reason...I've never heard any stories about my great-grandfather on my mom's side. I never knew he was a miner.

I was born and raised about 45 mintues from Cherry and I'm horrified that I didn't know a thing about this until now. My hometown was even a mining town! A few people from it died in this disaster! My family wasn't a mining family so maybe that's why it was never spoken of???
