Many of us have miners in our family trees but with so many mining areas closing down it is not always easy to find out exactly where the mines were.
A project called Miner Mapping, undertaken in Durham has listed place names in County Durham and by clicking on a place name you can search an old map of the area.
Useful just to see the old maps on line
