Is an old working under a property here?
The mine records hold 3 mine sites inside the city or town limits: 2 past producers, now closed, 1 site with no status in the record; the old survey maps add 3 holes drawn inside the city or town limits, 1 of them shafts or tunnels. The mineral the records name is Iron.
A point in either file is a location, not a property line: the sheet shows the opening on the surface, not the rooms under it. The record that shows what runs under a parcel is the mine map. The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area. Wisconsin has no coal AML program; the old lead and zinc workings are in the southwest counties.
