The name of the lone majorette in your pictures of the 1950 Drum and Bugle Corp is Linda Little Dial.
She became a majorette in the Richwood High School Band and the Marshall College Band.
Does anyone remember a drive in near Richwood that was operating in the mid 90’s? My grandparents lived on a mountain near Richwood and took us to see a movie there in the summer of ’95. I’d be grateful if anyone has any more information about it or pictures.
I remember 3 drive in Theatres, Richwood Drive In Theatre at Holcomb, Craigsville drive in Theatre at Craigsville and Nettie Drive in Theatre, I would think it would be Richwood Drive in Theatre at Holcomb, that’s all I know, No Pictures.
My last ride was on a Honda CB750, 53 years ago. Things were different back then, but The Gateway to the Monongahela National Forest always been full of adventure, history, and culture. “Let the adventure begin.”
“For God’s sake, this man cannot do his job.” Worst president in my lifetime.
(1) His war on fossil fuels helped drive domestic production down and gasoline prices through the roof. Current Avg. $4.225 for Regular
(2) He showed weakness in the face of Russian aggression against Ukraine.
(3) He unleashed the worst border crisis in U.S. history, more than 1.6 million encounters with migrants along the U.S.-Mexico border in 2021. “This Only Help keep Low Wage for american workers”.
(4) He greenlighted Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline to Germany.
(5) He put the safety of U.S. service members at the Kabul airport in the hands of the Taliban and Haqqani network, a decision that led to the deaths of 13 Americans in a suicide attack.
(6) U.S. COVID-19 Deaths in 2021 Surpass 2020 Total
(7) He left hundreds of U.S. citizens and as many as 62,000 of our Afghan allies behind enemy lines
(8) U.S. Inflation February 2022: Hits 40-Year High of 7.9%
This list only scratches the surface. This is my opinion, did Biden really recieve more than 81 million votes in 2020?
The Biden-Harris Administration and Nancy Pelosi made history!!! “again” Gas prices are now the most expensive in US history, breaking record from 2008.
The Biden administration announced that Americans can begin ordering free at-home COVID-19 rapid tests starting Jan. 19, Haven’t received my free four rapid tests as of February 1, 2022.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP RALLY LIVE IN CONROE, TX 1/29/22
Trump actually spoke to the American people directly and you always knew he stood for all Americans.
Biden calls Fox News reporter Peter Doocy a ‘stupid son of a bitch’ over a question about inflation and the midterms. You’ve surely noticed that journalists aren’t calling Biden out on this.
Philipp Caternaz, Billybob, Douglas, Are these names the same person. You’re foolish, every one leave a IP address. Your IP address is like your telephone number. A person you call can see your telephone number in his/ her phone’s caller ID.

I was there in the 50’s and 60’s and I remember the Corp of Engineers dredged the Cherry River and wipeout many good fishing spots, I know this first-hand, spent many a 8 hr days fishing from that rock, in the area of Lafrank WV. at Little Laurel Creek and Cherry river, less than a miles from downtown Richwood.
I grew up in the village of Trout on the other side of Cold Knob Mountain at the end of Greenbrier Road. I am a self published Tamarack approved author. I have my fifth published book nearly ready for the printers now and all pertain in some way to Greenbrier County. This one is about Kenos Douglas, son of Joshua and Nancy Hart. He was accused of and convicted, after three trials and sent to Moundsville for murder of Tom Reed at a wood chopping near Trout on Christmas day in 1893. I just found your site and read some interesting comments that I think are true but some are way off base. Joshua and Nancy lived in Trout for some years after the war and I have always been interested in her exploits.
Nancy was a celebrity in her own time, but her legend only grew after her death thanks to Jim Comstock, Edith Hemingway, Jacquelin Shields, and old-timers, like Randall Whytsell. Historically, there is actually very little we know about Nancy after the civil war. There are historical fiction books about Nancy Hart and the the civil war which is a combination of real events and fictional events.
I’ve heard some about Jim Comstock from my dad, I think I’m his great nephew. I know he wrote the WV Hillbilly but I haven’t been able to find much on what he wrote about outside of it being a joke paper. I’d love to talk to y’all about it and local culture and history in general, there’s a lot of wisdom to be learned from the older generations.
Simply put, I would describe Comstock “Hillbilly Weakly Publication” as a sensationalistic journalism newspaper about West Virginia lore which helped me understand what it means to be a West Virginian.
Can you tell me where the section of Richwood called LaFrank is located? My father was born there in 1922 and he is buried in the Richwood Cemetery and I am trying to find out more information about him as he died when I was a baby.
There Actually WAS A Darryl’s Barbershop On Main Street, my husband got a hair cut their. “I’ve been visiting with a friend at Little Laured” he catch sayings I, drove more than 500 miles for a haircut.
Can anyone remember Burger shop at Northern Hotel in the late 60’s early 70’s? The owner was an coal miner’s wife, I think she lived on Riverside Drive.
They was talking about this on the Evening News, West Virginia More Efficient Than the Federal Government …The first state in the nation to finish offering the vaccines to all nursing home facilities, doing so before the end of 2020. According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 205,000 COVID-19 doses of the shots have been distributed and more than 134,000 doses have been administered in the state. A lot of really smart people here getting it done.
