Brunner Cemetery

Today we stopped at a very old cemetery. This area was a very busy coal mining area and in 1896 there was an explosion in the Brunner Coal Mine, killing 65 men. As well as that, there were headstones with other sad stories. One family lost all seven children in a landslide, another lost two in a fire. The rainy, misty weather was appropriate today for this sad visit.
