These photos were a family project donated to the historical society by Mr. Harless Turner and Mrs. Roseann (Cottrill) Turner of Glenville WV. They started taking photos of area churches as a hobby in the 1980’s and have a fine collection of photos for us to share. Some of the churches are no longer standing and we are fortunate to have these photos for posterity and future viewing. If you have information on these churches such as when they were built, parishioners (past or present), preachers (past or present), or any fond memories of attending these churches please add them to the comments so we can capture that information for future genealogy researchers. If you have photos you would like to add to our collection please send them to us by using the contact information on the menu options above.
If you are enjoying our historical photo archives please consider donating to our non profit organization
