My Grandfather (William Plummer) was John's brother - he died following an accident (1921) in the same pit. For some reason, compensation details for William's family have been entered on John's 'page'.

If you are researching John Plummer (e.g. for family tree purposes) and you would like to hear from others with the same interest then please complete the details in the following form. We will show the information you provide on this page so that you can be contacted.
