So much history in Harpers Ferry too. I bet WV was somewhat like Kansas and Nebraska before the war. Or even Kentucky and Missouri.Yes and no. The southern parts of WV wanted to go with the south, it was the northern counties that wanted to stay in the union.
Basically union troop locations made the boundary between southern WV and southwest VA.
Stonewall Jackson was even from present day WV.
WV certainly seems Southern.
