Mount Olive and Mother Jones

The Associated Content site has listed a “history detour” about Mount Olive, Ill., and its most famous resident, union activist Mother Jones.

She is buried just off old Route 66 in the Union Miners Cemetery, and a monument also was erected there in her honor.

The article also mentions the restored Soulsby Station on 66.
