Hi Listers, I hope someone on the list that is familiar with the Bellaire landmarks, and history, can help with this question. On a recent research trip we were exploring Bellaire. On N. Guernsey St. we saw a quite thick looking smoke stack, near/on property that looked like an factory. I don't remember now if it looked occupied. On top was a sign that said something to the effect of "Bellaire the American Town." While viewing some of the Wheeling newspapers on micro, I saw a notation (paper dated 8/11/1894) about the big stack at Bellaire Nail Works completed and was 127 feet high, and the foundation added another 12-15ft more to the heighth. Could this be the same stack? Also, can anybody tell me what would have been Barnards first addition (1899) to the city of Bellaire? Or Barnards 3rd addition to Bellaire, abt 1902? Thanks for any imput. Nancy Reynolds in TN Researching: WOOD, CURTIS, McDONALD, RYLAND, McGUIRE, RIGGS
