DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from History and Progress of the County of Marion, West Virginia, From Its Earliest Settlement by the Whites, Down to the Present, Together With Biographical Sketches of Its Most Prominent Citizens We have designed in the following pages to relate in detail the principal events that have transpired in Marion county from its first settlement to the present. We are aware that the work has many imperfections, but they could not be helped. To write a history without having any authentic or written records to aid us, was almost akin to "creating something out of nothing." The early settlers of this section have all died, their children have, with a few exceptions, followed them; and many events of interest in connection with the early history have been lost in oblivion. We have endeavored to rescue as many as possible, however, and herewith present them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
