Location

This West Virginia handyman special is located in Quinwood, a small town located in Greenbrier County. It is situated in the southeastern part of the state, nestled within the scenic Appalachian Mountains. Quinwood has a rich history that dates back to the late 19th century when it was established as a coal mining community.

The town was named after John Quin Morton, a prominent figure in the local coal industry. Morton was a successful businessman and entrepreneur who owned several coal mines in the area. He played a significant role in the development and growth of the town by providing employment opportunities for the local population.

Quinwood’s economy primarily relied on coal mining throughout its history. The town experienced its peak population during the early 20th century when the coal industry was thriving. At that time, Quinwood had a bustling downtown area with various businesses catering to the needs of the mining community.

However, like many other coal mining towns, Quinwood faced economic challenges in the latter half of the 20th century. The decline of the coal industry resulted in a decrease in population as job opportunities became scarce. Today, Quinwood is a smaller community compared to its heyday but continues to maintain its charm and close-knit community spirit.

The town is surrounded by picturesque landscapes, making it an attractive destination for outdoor enthusiasts. The nearby Greenbrier River and the Monongahela National Forest offer opportunities for fishing, hiking, and camping.

Quinwood is also known for its strong sense of community and various local events and festivals that bring residents together. These events help foster a sense of belonging and camaraderie among the townspeople.
