The Baldwin-Whitehall Patch has partnered with the Baldwin Historical Society to bring you a weekly trivia question that delves into our area's colorful past.

Pat Lombardi and Patty Woehler, co-presidents of the society, generously write the questions and provide the pictures.

Here is this week's question:

The picture on the left is of a mine tipple in the early 1900s. The tipple was used for the Horning Mine.

The picture on the right shows a woman near the tipple carrying water to her house from a source about two or three blocks away.

Hers and her neighboring homes were company houses where miners lived.

The houses' neighborhood usually had a company store in it from which the residents purchased all of their goods.

What was this mining neighborhood called?
