Coleanor, also known as Coal-Eleanor, is an unincorporated community in Bibb County, Alabama, United States.
The mine at Coleanor was originally known as the Upper Thompson Mine.[1] The Blocton-Cahaba Coal Company operated a coal mine at Coleanor.[2] Combined with nearby Piper, the two towns had a combined population of nearly 2,500.[3] Coleanor was connected by rail to Piper and was located on the Southern Railway.[4] The Coleanor Mine was closed after World War II.
In February 1934, members of the United Mine Workers called a strike at the Coleanor mine.[5] Alabama National Guard troops were called in to Coleanor on February 25 to restore order.[6]
