    Thanks. DAVIDW's explanation sounds a 'good bet', as Digby can be used as a forename as well as a surname. PIANOMAN's comment is questionable. I have discovered from research that the red coal wagons from the 'pit' had the name 'Digby Colliery' painted on them. I've just bought one!

    DIGBY COLLIERY I'm commenting in connection with 'BullwellBrian's' mention of the same. Does anyone know why the colliery has the name of Digby? Was it the owner, investor, located near a place of the same name? I know of a village in Lincolnshire called Digby. Iit's south of Lincoln. so a long way from the colliery.
