There's a good write up on the disaster in the Society book "A History of Mining in the Heanor Area". On page 65 it says ..... The injured were: Archibald Beswick 52 of Kingway; John Holmes 31 of Thorpes Road; James Draper 50 of Mayfield Avenue; Wilfred Noon 25 of Watkinson Street; Fred Winfield 30 of Ray Street and Samuel Kerry of Wellington Street Ripley. The Heanor men went to Heanor Hospital but were transfered to Nottingham General.

Further it says ..... Tragically news came through that Bestwick, Holmes and Noon had died on Friday 2nd July 1943.

29th Dec1911
Heanor
Colliery mishap while descending the shaft at Shipley Colliery last Friday two miners Harry Lomax and Allan Thornhill, both of Fletcher St, Heanor, were badly knocked about owing to a slight mishap to the cage. The men were conveyed home where, on being examined by a doctor, it was found that no bones were broken. Both have however been ordered to bed for several days.

Suzard,
Do you by any chance know the date/year/location of death of Annie Thornhill c1864 (Shipley). I have her birth and marriage details. She was married to my (John) Henry Brown. I am told she attended the funeral of her brother at the age of 70 in 1934, but I can't find her death after that.
Many thanks, Sue

Annie attended the funeral of my grandfather in 1934 -but John Henry didn't attend -and the floral tribute was from mrs brown and family -so don't know if John Henry died before then.
There may be further news on Annie tomorrow -as another contact is investigating a death in Ilkeston
Sue, can you send me your e mail address -I have recently had work done on my PC and have lost most of my addresses -I have the newspaper info re your Grandfather.

Hi Sue, I will email you this evening, I thought it was strange I hadn't heard from you lately! John Henry died quite young in the 1st qtr of 1909, registered at Basford.
Thanks, Sue

I am researching the NOON family of Shipley Boat. I would have to look at my dates etc but remember that Millicent, one of Robert Noon's daughters, married Joseph Rowland and they were living at the lodge house on Hassock Lane, Shipley (at the top of Long Lane). Willing to share that part of my tree to anyone connected and would be grateful for any information.

If you look on "Public House" section - Shipley Boat Inn Occupants 1891 -census there is a funeral report of one of the Noons and other information which may be of interest
