West Virginia's Lower Tygart Valley River: People & Places

This extensive collection of people and places in the Lower Tygart River Valley is a significant historical reference and will be used for generations. Author Carolynn Fortney Hamilton has painstakingly assembled photos and stories dating from the Civil War to present day depicting the life and times of the River Communities and their citizens; cemetery and graveyard lists; churches; roads and the role the B & O Railroad played in the development of the Tygart River Valley. Much more than a community scrapbook, Hamilton has provided the reader with a complete overview of the history of this rich West Virginia valley area.
