Great video & series! I'm originally from South Charleston, now living in Fort Worth, TX. I have a beautiful photograph of the New River from the lookout at Hawk's Nest on my living room wall.
My grandfather survived the Layland No. 3 Mine Disaster on March 3, 1915. Some people gave him credit for saving himself and 40+ men by building double barricades to keep the poisonous gases out. They were trapped underground for 4-5 days until rescuers found a note that they left stating where they were located.
Charles Rogers, who was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor, came from Thurmond. He attended a black school in Mount Hope called Dubois. There is a bridge at Chimney Corner in Fayette County named in his honor.
My sister in law came from a family if 13 kids, in Fayetville . It took us many years to decipher a lot of what she was saying. Shucking corn and she would scream and stand up "Oh look a spotter! Which turned out to be a spider. And "Oh look a snake doctor!" Which to us in Michigan was a dragonfly. If you asked where she was from she'd reply "Fatville!" (Fayettville.) She has completely lost that accent all these years later.

Great work as usual. My wife and I honeymooned at Hawks Nest almost 30 years ago. We still like to visit Fayette County. One of our favorites in WV.
The New River Gorge has some amazing rock climbing!
A former governor of West Virginia was a member of our lions club in Mount Hope. His name was Okey Patteson. He was governor from 1949 to 1953.
