Biographical/Historical note
The Victoria Copper Mining Company operated the Victoria Mine and Mill in Ontonagon County's
Rockland Township. A relatively small producer, the Victoria opened as the Cushin Mine in 1849. Early
development under the Forest Mining Company (1850-1858) failed to make a profit and the mine was
only worked intermittently under the Victoria Mining Company (1858-1899).
In January 1899, the company was reorganized in Boston as the Victoria Copper Mining Company
and work began on the mine site in March under Thomas Hooper (a well-known mining pioneer). The
reorganization also reunited Victoria with the Glenn, Shirley, Sylvan, Oneida, and Arctic properties,
which had been split off into separate companies in the early years of the Victoria Mine.
Presumably due to the numerous earlier failures at the site, the management was cautious with
expenditures and the mine expanded its operations slowly. The first mining engineer was not hired until
1902, the first mine captain in 1904, and the first master mechanic in 1905. Financial constraints also
resulted in the suspension of mining from mid 1904 to early 1906. Similarly, the stamp mill was only
completed in June 1906, more than seven years after the beginning of mining.
In 1902, the Glenn [or Glen] Falls Dam, the first of three major hydroelectric dams, was constructed on
the West Branch of the Ontonagon River. Four years later, a second dam (known as the Lake Gogebic
Dam or the Bergland Dam) was built on same river near the mouth of Lake Gogebic. In March of the
same year, Victoria's famous air compressor went into operation after lengthy construction delays. The
Victoria Dam, the largest and last of the dams, was not constructed until after the Victoria Copper Mining
Company became defunct. For the history of that dam, see the historical note for Series VII: Victoria
Power Project Records.
One of the most isolated mines in the Copper Country, Victoria suffered from recurring labor shortages.
However, it was one of the few mines unaffected by the strike of 1913-1914. The Western Federation of
Miners did not organize any of the Victoria labor force. A brief work stoppage was resolved with only a
few days lost.
Largely due to the post-war collapse of copper prices, the Victoria Mine ceased operations in April 1921.
In August 1929, the Victoria Copper Mining Company sold its water rights to the Northern Acquisition
Company and in December sold the remainder of its property to the Copper Range Company.
The records do not indicate the date of the final dissolution of the Victoria Copper Mining Company, but
the liquidation of its physical assets in 1929 brought its activities to an end.
For a listing of Victoria Copper Mining Company directors and officers through 1929, see the Appendix.

Subseries II: Correspondence with James P. Graves (Treasurer) 1907-1923
Scope and Contents note
Starting in 1907, correspondence with Treasurer James P. Graves was filed separately, rather than in the
central correspondence file. A partial exception is correspondence relating to Lake Gogebic, which was
sometimes filed in a separate file (see Subseries IV).
The correspondence in this subseries is the best source for learning about the management of the Victoria
Copper Mining Company. Graves and Superintendent George Hooper corresponded in great detail about
the operations and plans for Victoria.
Note that some correspondence with other officers in Boston is included in this subseries. Additionally,
the filing system largely broke down in 1921-1923, due to the rapid reduction in staffing. Researchers
are advised that the folders for those years may have inaccurate titles.
Arrangement
Files are arranged chronologically.

Subseries IV: Lake Gogebic Correspondence 1907-1922
Scope and Contents note
Around 1911, the office began filing Lake Gogebic related correspondence in a separate file from the
central correspondence file. Correspondence with Graves regarding Lake Gogebic seems to have been
sometimes filed in this subseries and sometimes in the separate Graves subseries.
Most of the correspondence relates to Bergland Dam, although the most important material relating to
the lengthy dispute with G. A. Bergland can be found in Series IV: General Files.

Series VII: Victoria Power Project Records
Biographical/Historical note
The Victoria Copper Mining Company had often hoped to significantly expand the use of hydroelectric
power on the Ontonagon River. However, it was not until five years after the end of mining operations
that the financial resources began to coalesce.
In 1926, Frank H. Speese organized the Northern Acquisition Company to develop the Victoria Dam.
After partnering with the Copper Range Company and the construction firm Price Brothers, the Northern
Acquisition Company purchased Victoria Copper Mining Company's water rights in August 1929. The
Copper Range Company subsequently purchased the remainder of the Victoria property in December.
By this point, initial engineering work had already been started by Holland, Ackerman & Holland.
During the construction of the Victoria Dam by the Price Brothers from 1929 to 1931, the Northern
Acquisition Company was succeeded by the Copper District Power Company, jointly owned by the
Copper Range Company and the Middle West Utilities Company.
The original Victoria Dam was replaced in 1991 by the Upper Peninsula Power Company (successor to
the Copper District Power Company) and the new dam continues to provide substantial electrical power
to the Western Upper Peninsula.
Scope and Contents note
The Victoria Power Project Records consist mostly of correspondence and engineering records, but
also include accident reports and time cards. Most of the material is from Resident Engineer Harold F.
Mielenz of Holland, Ackerman & Holland.
