Download or read book Wood County West Virginia written by Betty Leavengood and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002-11-25 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nestled in the midst of the Mid-Ohio Valley along the Ohio River, Wood County exists as one of West Virginia's most populous areas. A unique history drives forward the county's diverse communities, and today's residents enjoy a varied palette of opportunities offered by both metropolitan centers and smaller, more rural hamlets. Wood County, West Virginia honors an integral chapter of The Mountain State's storied past, offering readers the opportunity to meet a variety of the county's personalities, including the wealthy-and later infamous-Irish immigrant Harman Blennerhassett, the industrial magnates who arrived with the harvesting of oil and natural gas, and even some everyday individuals. More than 200 vintage photographs also invite readers to experience the county's defining moments, such as the growth of the Volcano oil field after the War between the States, along with the county's tragedies, such as the 1909 collapse of Parkersburg's water tanks on Quincy Hill, which swept a newly married couple to their deaths. Capable of enjoying the prosperous times and of overcoming the difficult ones, Wood Countians have proven themselves time and again since its founding in 1799. This volume is a fitting tribute to the strength and will of all who have called Wood County home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though small and primarily agricultural for much of its history, Wood County in East Texas has been “home sweet home” to many well-known personalities, including former Quitman High School homecoming queen and Coal Miner’s Daughter star Sissy Spacek, former San Francisco mayor Willie Brown, Lillian Richard (the woman who inspired Quaker Oats to create Aunt Jemima), and several country music performers and songwriters. The peaceful Caddo tribe inhabited the area before white settlers established the county in 1850. Railroads built in the 1870s made coal mining the dominant industry, and the towns of Mineola, Winnsboro, Quitman, and Hawkins were founded and continued to grow. The county’s many lakes, historic sites, festivals, and musical events draw thousands of visitors every year.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wood County Formation: A Century of Progress; History of Divisions, Courts, Buildings, Past and Present, and Engravings of the Same Such a tide of population from Pennsylvania, Maryland, and the Potomac river counties of Virginia, through Harpers Ferry gap, had poured into this section, that in 1738 the legislature of the Colony restricted the county of Orange to that portion of her territory east of the Blue Ridge, and created two new ones out of the land beyond, named in honor of the Prince and Princess of Wales. Frederick comprised the northern part of the great inter montaine valley with Winchester as its seat, and Augusta the southern section and all the remainder of Virginia west, with Staunton as its seat of Government. In 1754 Hampshire was formed from the trans-shenan doah portions of Frederick and Augusta counties. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
