I'm sure the Coal Valley you're talking about would be in Boone County.

COALTOWN. The orginal name of the town of Angus. COAL VALLEY. In section 2, Marcy Township, about a mile northwest. of Moingona.. Laid out in 1867. A coal mining town.

* Angus Originally called Coaltown. In 1880- 1886, it promised to be a city "Bigger than Des Moines" and had a population of 3500 to 7000 people.
