Thank you for the website of collieries. Now an extra question (the last) Does anyone know anything about the jobs of those who called themselves engineers/engine tenders and seemed not to have been colliers but rather ran the pump houses. Most of my ancestors were listed thus, and I'm trying to find out what their lives were like, and whether the job was passed from father to son. Thank you.
