When we get the B & O Railroad Depot renovated we are planning to make a railroad museum in it. We are hoping to get this accomplished within the next year to 18 months. We are hoping to be able to complete the gravel road that leads up to the Civil War site this Summer, if we can get the done maybe it will enable us to get funding to finish the development of the Civil War Site, "Cannon Hill."

We are gathering and editing materials for a Histories of families that settled and lived in this area.

Believed to have been constructed about 1805 by Henry Cooper, one of the first settlers of Wood County, this two-story log house was originally located on Elizabeth Pike at Mineral Wells about nine miles from Parkersburg. It was situated on a several hundred-acre plot of ground. In 1910 it was dismantled and moved to the City Park to serve as part of the city's centennial observance that year of its incorporation as a town and its renaming as "Parkersburg." In 1911 the house became the headquarters and museum of the Centennial Chapter of the Daughters of the American Pioneers which organized in 1899 is Wood County's oldest surviving historical organization.
