Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of Wetzel County, West Virginia
The History of vvetzel County runs from the year of 1772 to the present time. The author has used great pains in securing the most important events during that time, and has succeeded as far as the interesting matter is concerned, though there may be a few incidents left out for the want of data. The most im portant ones have been secured. There may be incidents in the history of the county that would not only speak bad of the morality of the county, but would bring back remembrances of unhappy days, and things that would sadden the pages of Wet zel's History. Wetzel county for years has been suffering with a'name that she does not deserve, and she is gradually blotting it out. In the history of the county there are a great many men whose lives should have been mentioned in the book but were not, from the fact that the author could not secure anything concerning them. The author has put-in four months in se curing information and in writing this history. It does not require very much of an education to write a book of this kind.
