Address: 24311 Morgan Street, Black Diamond. The mineworkers in Black Diamond's coal mines lived, for the most part, in simple wood frame houses. Once prevalent, few of these houses remain today, and those that survive have been expanded or altered by changes to siding or other materials.
Many mine families lived in houses on company owned-land, but some miners constructed their own homes on private land near the company town. The small one story, wood frame Miner's Cabin, located on land owned by Welsh miner Timothy Morgan, is said to have been built by two Italian miners. They lived in the house until the 1920s, when Morganville became the center of union activity during bitter labor disputes.
