Blair Mountain now has been added to the National Registor of Historic Places. Bill Price, a Sierra Club activist,made the announement today. I know this will make many Logan countians happy. This wasnt done easily, as the coal operators fought it every step of the way. Now we can visit where our fathers, grandfathers, fought for the right to organize.

I believe it is about 1600 acres along the ridges that have finally been declared a National Historic Site.? It was nominated a while back and it was a struggle.? The WV state government had to get behind the nomination before it could go forward and it took them a while to make that decision.? My Grandfather was there on Blair-he was blacklisted a long time for working with the union.? It's about time!

Will this have any effect on the Pigeon Roost area of Blair?? What about the area where Carl Burgess' gas station used to be? -----Original Message----- From: BurgessWV@aol.com To: WVLOGAN-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Mon, 30 Mar 2009 5:22 pm Subject: [WVLOGAN] Blair Mountain Now Is A National Park Blair Mountain now has been added to the National Registor of Historic Places.
