Do you know if Oliver Wethered was related to the Wethered's who mined coal in the Bristol Region? -----Original Message----- From: mining-history [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Mike Gill Sent: 01 December 2008 19:02 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [MINING-HISTORY] Arthur Schiff Can anyone please help please? I'm looking for details of Arthur Schiff, whose group of companies with interests in Cornish mining went bust in 1914. I understand that he had links with Germany and, from his name, I wonder if he was classed as an enemy alien. Also, was an obituary ever published for Oliver Wethered (a major player in early C20th Cornish mining), who died c1926? Thanks in advance. Mike Gill
