The name Long also appears in connection with the Somerset coalfield. TEAGUE - Family The 1842 Commission Report gives the following information HOPEWELL, NEW ENGINE, AND PROSPER PITS near COLEFORD - Peter Teague And Co. Mr. Peter Teague, Managing Partner The name Teague appears on documents relating to Cromhall colliery between 1815 & 1819. Is there any link between the names?
