San. The woman thief was working on a regular site, riddling for bits of ore i believe. A young lad had previously noticed some money disappearing from his hung up coat pockets.
A penny was deliberately marked and when he found the penny was among some more vanished coins, he accused the woman.

The area was notable for both its surface and underground streams and over time, giant hollows had been formed underground, leaving just a 'skin' covering of earth over a few of them. Unfortunately, at the precise moment of the woman's speech, a large hollowed out section of the earth on which she was standing, collapsed.
When they eventually found her body, the marked penny was in her possession.

I've rechecked the names you have given, but unfortunately, the furthest back in time which i can locate is the late 1700s. Perhaps another member, hopefully, will aid you in you quest?
