Name

Not sure about the reference to the Confederate flag. This was mostly a Unionist area during the Civil War. I believe the cited reference is incorrect in his understanding.

The person that developed this mine was named Bonnyman; the company was Blue Diamond Coal Company. --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 22:46, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'll also note that "blue" was a thing with Blue Diamond. Their tipples were painted blue. Their marketing literature was blue. They developed another mine named Royal Blue. --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 23:30, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
