Like Home - Story of the Crusoe West Family from v5n1
The story of the cave home of Mary and Robinson Crusoe West.
It was "ever humble,’ but it was a comfortable home for over
twenty years. "Uncle Crusoe," as he was called by friends and
neighbors, discovered the site for his home when he was eight years old
and his hunting dogs "treed a ‘coon" for him at the cave at
Pine Hill. In the fall of 1934 Crusoe was 60 years old when he worked
night and day to close in the cave as a shelter for his family before
winter set in. Thirteen children -seven girls and six boys (including
two sets of twins) — lived at least some of their growing up years in
the cave-home.

Hattie King from v5n1

This article, as it appeared in the Independent Herald, simply

the marriage date is a bond date, a license date, or an actual marriage
ceremony date. I have taken the list and merged the names and
dates with other names and dates found on the Scott
Co, TN Marriages page. I did this to provide a single location
for finding information on marriages performed in Scott County.

Added Remember
When . . . Norma Was A City?
The western Virginia company known as the New River Coal and Coke
Company purchased what was known as the Bird Lands. This was a vast
boundary of virgin timber located in the New River Valley just above
Norma and extending some distance on each side of the river. This
article, by Jennings Hatfield, describes the history of the New River
Lumber Company and its role in developing Norma.
Added Reflections
of The Past: Glenmary
Before there was a Scott County there were people living along the
creeks, in the coves and on top of the ridges in the area that became
Glenmary. In 1880 a railway official who had two daughters,
"Glen-man" and "Mary" combined the names to make
Glen-mary. Maggie Barger writes an interesting article about the
town's history and describes its hey day era.
Added The
Helenwood Explosion on April 5, 1935
One of the small Keeton children, who lived in the little house
adjacent to the warehouse, had climbed onto a cabinet and pulled it
over. It fell onto the wood-burning stove, knocking the pipe down, thus
catching the kitchen afire. Then it happened! The debris could be seen
in the air for miles around — and such a loud noise and
concussion! Kathleen West Robbins write a first-hand account of
the explosion that is still talked about today.
Added Historical
Society And How It Began
From the records at the Courthouse and recollections of the original
incorporators, it appears that during 1965 there was a strong drive in
the community for the establishment of some type of permanent structure
for the housing of items of historical interest to students of Scott
County history. Bruce Butler describes the beginning of the Scott
County Historical Society in 1965 and its revitalization in 1983
at the request of Irene Baker, the County's then Historian.
Added The
Ritter Lumber Company in New River 1928-60
The W. M. Ritter Lumber Company of Columbus, Ohio came to New River
in 1928 taking over the operations from the bankrupt Thomas Hall Lumber
Company. The Company grew from a single mill in Mercer County,
West Virginia, to become the largest manufacturer of hardwood lumber in
the world with operations in eight states, a major producer of coal. It
owned over 300,000 acres of land and at one time owned 72
locomotives. Allen Marcum provides a short history on this major
Scott County employer.
