Coal Company Scrip front and back, The New River Company, Whipple, West Virginia. This was passed to me by my grandfather, Elbert Momen Patterson of Meadow Bridge, West Virginia prior to his death in 1985.

Momen Patterson, Marvin Patterson, Aubry Gwinn, Lawrence Lewis (Deacon), & Hensley Harrah.

Thanks to Harold Patterson, Marvin's son, for identifying everyone in this shot. Harold tells me that this is the only photograph to hang in the Meadow Bridge Barber Shop. I'm guessing this was taken sometime in the 1980s. This location is just down the road from my grandfather's house, near what was Garten's Store, the building behind the men.

I'm not sure what year this was taken. Early 70s? I don't have a high resolution scan of this one, but

I plan to rescan it as soon as I refind the original.
