Surname: Fine, Hicks, Trezona
-------------------------
My GGrandparents were born at Ruby Hill, and lived in Eureka, NV for most
of their lives. I had the opportunity to live with them for about 6 months
when I was in my early teens. My GGrandad was quite a story teller and
I believe that the Jackson mine was one of the ones he talked about. I
am not sure if it was Ruby Hill but I think it was in that area.
I just started doing my genealogy and I anticipate seeing my Dad next week
end to get as much info as possible since he is now in poor health. When
I see him (he was raised by my GGrandparents in Eureka), I will ask him
if he knows anything about the Jackson mine.
I don't wish to get your hopes up but I think I can at least get the info
of whether that mine was in the Ruby Hill/Eureka area.
If you have any information pertaining to the above surnames, I would appreciate
anything you can provide.
