Bon Jellico Families



The Jim & Ellie Click Family

Children: Grace, Dan, Roxie, Maude, and Herman

    Jim and Dan Click opened the first mine opening at Bon on a cold February 14th. As they ate lunch, they discovered a large rattlesnake laying below the tram road on a large chestnut oak log.

    Jim taught the card class in Sunday School in the Bon Jellico School house.

    In 1917 when the United Mine Workers of America tried to organize, Jim favored the UMWA. Since the UMWA vote at Bon failed, Jim was ‘not needed at Bon’ any more.
