THIS STORY:
In 1966, 7-year old Ruth Ann Miller was playing around the abandoned No. 4 shaft of the Tamarack Mine in Calumet, Michigan. Due to erosion around the cap, she inadvertently slipped under its cap and fell down a 4,000 foot deep vertical mine shaft. When rescuers attempted to remove the shaft's concrete cap to mount a rescue, the cap broke free and fell down the shaft. For 3 days the rescue effort persisted.

I was a 10 yr old tomboy and we lived on a dead end road that led to a closed strip mine site. My oldest brother driving my dad's pickup and me on the open tailgate hauled the remains of our garden to an open mine shaft, when he backed up hitting a clump of dirt I was thrown from the tailgate into the open shaft! By the grace of God I fell onto a ledge about 8 feet down and just wide enough for my body, no broken bones but landed on broken glass and rusted metal. But I was alive! My brother was scared and freaked out , but went for my dad and they lowered a rope and pulled me out. Still have the scars and still remember the tetanus shot too! After that everyone around the area started filling in this shaft. They are everywhere and dangerous. Sad ending to this story for Ruth Ann Miller. R.I.P

It's still happening in 9/2007 a 13 drove and plunged her ATV into a 125ft mine shaft near Chloride AZ. The 13 year old didn't survive but her 10 year old sister did. They were found the next day. Dad was riding ahead of them they just disappeared. They said the brush hid the mine. They say there is over 100,000 abandoned mines just in Arizona alone. Thanks I enjoyed the story.

Ruth Ann Miller, 50 years later | ABC 10 Web Feature They said her step-father maintained the grave/memorial. Seven years ago ABC 10 did a news video. Her step-father will have his ashes also there at the site to join Ruth, her mother and brother. At the time of the news video 7 yrs ago the step-father said he was 90. He didn't know who would continue to maintain the area after he was gone. I do hope someone has or will.

As always Ron.....another amazing video!! This was such a HEARTBREAKING story.....Ruth Ann was an innocent adorable sweet child, that was having a day of laughter & fun which unfortunately ended in complete tragedy 😢.... My heart seriously broke for her mother....it's one thing to know something horrible has happened to ur child, which is bad enough....but to never be able to locate ur child safely, or to not be able to actually retrieve their body for a last goodbye & proper burial has to be just so absolutely painful & heartbreaking.....no one should EVER have to go thru that.... ESPECIALLY a parent. Her memorial and tombstone in the location where she had passed is absolutely beautiful.... And honestly I'm so glad that they fulfilled her mother's dying wish to be placed with her daughter as well as her brother....This story is just so very saddening....but it's comforting to know that Ruth Ann is together once again with her mother and brother..... Thank you Ron for telling her story and helping to keep her memory alive!! **My thoughts heart and prayers go to Ruth Ann, her mother & her brother up in HEAVEN & to any/all remaining family members.... May they RIP 🙏🩷😢💜🙏

What a sad and tragic story, Ron. As usual, you have done a great job in telling us the story of what happened here to little Ruth. It's a consolation to know that the cremains of her mother and brother are also there where she lost her life. Both mom and brother died relatively young by today's standards. It wouldn't surprise me if Ruth's young and tragic death shortened both of their lives. The grief they lived with must have been very hard to endure. May they all rest in peace! P.S. Looking forward to what you have in store for us for Halloween, Ron!!! 🎃👻🌚

@angelmomma8898 Год назад

I grew up in a town just a few miles from Calumet and there is so much history in that place. I second another commenter's suggestion of looking into the Italian Hall disaster at some point. It was an incredibly tragic time for the miners and to this day, it's still unknown who actually caused it though there are several theories as to the culprit's identity. The Lakeview Cemetery not far from Calumet has many of the graves of those who lost their lives in the disaster and there is definitely a different feel to that part of the cemetery. It's very a very somber and sobering space to visit because you see gravestone after gravestone with the same date on it. Many of them have a lamb on top too, signifying the grave is that of a child.

I had never heard this story prior, and it just gave me chills. To me, it was always a stunning place of beauty, but now to hear this story, lays a dark shadow over the area. I just hope she died quickly as I cannot fathom a small child hanging on to life down there for any amount of time. You told this story beautifully Ron, and my heart goes out to her mother and brother and all those who knew little Ruth.

Such a sad incident & so awful to have never actually found her. I do think that living with such a terrible sadness probably had a direct influence on the length of the lives of her loved ones.
