This web site was created to engage the citizens of Moweaqua in mining their collective cultural history. In the lifespan of the village, the Moweaqua Mining Corporation disaster of 1932 was a defining loss to the social, economic and emotional stability of the community. The generational memory of this event and the supporting physical evidence are now at risk of disappearing forever. Using locally owned historic documents, photographs and artifacts, "Mining More in Moweaqua" will provide an explanation how this single explosion represents a microcosm of Illinois coal mining history.
