A Bevin Boy is a young man conscripted to work down the coalmines in the period between 1943 and 1948.
They worked in coal mines and some children didn't servive in the mines because of all the fumes.
The Mines Act of 1842 forbid employing children under age 10, and for all women, to work in mines. It should be noted that England mines today and in 1842 have extensive coal mines.
Named after Ernest Bevin the minister of labour in WW2. These were conscripted into work in the Coal Mines rather than military enlistment. The war work done by these men was indispensable to the British war effort.

This was overseen by then Minister for Labour Ernest Bevin, as opposed to Nye Bevan, the son of Welsh coal miners who as Minister of Health in the post-war Atlee government established the National Health Service.
People who dig gold and silver are miners.
