History
The Tasmanian Coal Miners' Association was formed in December 1912 with miners from the Cornwall and Mount Nicholas mines. At a meeting on 26 January 1913 at Cullenswood the union met with T Mathieson, president of the Victorian Coal Miners' Association and decided to join with the Victorian union. It became the Tasmanian Branch of the Australasian Coal Miners' Association in 1913 and then the Tasmanian District of the Australasian Coal and Shale Employees' Federation in 1916.
