Description: Historical Sketches of Pocahontas County, West Virginia, by William T. Price, originally published by Price Brother, Publishers, Marlinton, WV, July 1901 — OCLC Number / Unique Identifier: 5692693821 ~ a facsimile Reprint with a Name Index added, published by Heritage Books, Inc., Bowie, MD, 1990 — ISBN 1556133472 — 660 pages — frontispiece author portrait — measures: 5 3/8" x 8 1/4" x 1 1/2" "Pocahontas County was created in 1821 from parts of Pendleton, Randolph, and Bath counties, Virginia, and remained a part of that state until 1863 when the western portion of Virginia was admitted to the Union as a separate state. It had been settled much earlier by people from Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. This work begins with about one hundred pages devoted to the geography and history of the county, but the bulk of the volume consists of genealogical material on the pioneer settlers and their descendants, making it a genealogist's delight. A new name index had been added to this reprint to enhance its usefulness."
