Gerry, thank you for doing another great job on the Meadow River Lumber Company. Thanks also to J.W. for the book. In reading the names, brings back so many pleasant memories of when we grew up. Again, thanks. Gingy Walker Manspile |

Hello everyone. Gerry has added a history of the First Baptist Church of Rainelle in the East Rainelle portion of the Meadow River Slideshow. He has placed a picture of the first church build around 1911, pictures of the modern church, and six pages of history on the church - see http://www.rainellereunion.com/meadow_river_lumber_company_rainelle.html#slide_show
Gerry has done an amazing job on the slideshows. This slideshow has more than 600 photos and displays many old photos of scenes and a corresponding photo of the current or a recent scene. Your Rainelle friends who do not have a computer would also enjoy seeing this superb online museum that Gerry has developed. Bring them to your house, give them a cup of coffee and watch them reminisce and smile.

I bought a book on the internet entitled, "West Virginia, a book of geography, history and industry" by M. P. Shawkey, printed 1922. It is enscribed with the name of Prudence Louise Stroup, Rainelle, WV. There are some other names written in the book: Mr. Fred Holsberry, Lewisburg, and another name written where a page is torn with "Rainelle, WV, Feb. 28, 1923".
The book is not in good condition, but if anyone wants it, let me know. It didn't have the info in it that I needed, so I'm willing to pass it along if someone else wants it. |
