On September 7th, 2015 there was a memorial dedicated in Price, Carbon, Utah on the corner of 100 East and Main Street. This memorial contains the names of 1350 miners who lost their lives in the mines of Carbon County. Currently there are three names missing from the memorial: Reuben Naylor Tucker, Honorius Meloche, and John Douglas Glasson. These names will be added some time in the future. The following is a list of the 1353 miners, their ages, the date they died, the cause of the accident and the mine they died in. If you have photos of any of these men or know someone else who has died of a coal mine accident in Carbon County and should be included on this list please e-mail Kathy Hamaker. If you do e-mail about a new miner please be sure to include his name, date of death, cause of the accident and the mine he was killed in. Thank you.
The name of Andras Jozsa is listed on the monument as Jozsa Andras and also as Andrew Zeprain. Since the age is listed differently on the documentation we felt both names should be on the memorial. The name of Walter William Ullathorne is listed twice in a row.
Links to the photographs are being added. This is a work in process so please be patient. Those men who have the camera icon are men I have photos for. If you click on the camera a photo will open up on a new screen.
During the research process of documenting the names that would appear on the memorial there were many newspaper articles, mine reports, and obituaries found about these men. If the mans name is underlined you will be able to click on his name and read the information that was found about the miner. If the name of the mine is underlined then there are others killed in the same mine accident. You can click on the name of mine and read the information gathered about that mine accident. A book was published for the dedication of the memorial and contained information about each of the miners. The book is no longer available, in book form, but is available in PDF form on a CD. If you are interested in obtaining a copy of the CD please e-mail Kathy Hamaker.. Special thanks is given to Doris Prettyman for compiling all the information for the book, the CD and for this webpage.
