Welcome to the Bluefields!

T

he two Bluefields are the cornerstone and gateway to the coal fields of Southern West Virginia and Southwest Virginia. The economy has always been supported by the mining industry and to a large extent that remains the same today. Only the state line separates the two communities and its effect is minimal. In fact, the Bluefields were joined in “marriage” in a symbolic ceremony in the 1920’s. In July 2014 the marriage of the Bluefields was re-created at Bluefield City Park. It was a joint event between the City of Bluefield, WV and the Town of Bluefield, VA.

H istory & heritage 10

T

he history of Tazewell ell and M Mercer ercer Countyy ccan a an be traced back to the 1700s, thanks to American pioneers, who helped shape the mountains, into what we now call home. These first families created the values and traditions maintained by the region’s modern-day families. The Bluefield, West Virginia, area traces its origin back to 1780 when two American pioneers, Andrew Davidson and Richard Bailey, built a fort here to protect their families from hostile Indians. The land was used mainly for farming until the discovery of the Pocahontas Coalfields, which marked the beginning of the Bluefield area’s development as a commercial and industrial center. Bluefield, WV, named by early residents for its blue landscape colored by blooming chicory, is a “sister” city to Bluefield, VA. The Virginia City had been known as Graham in honor of community leader and railway surveyor Thomas Graham, but residents

Fascinating & Highly Significant voted in 1924 to change the name to Bluefield to reflect the close economic and social ties with its West Virginia “sister.” The event was memorialized by a day of celebration that included the marriage of a bride from Virginia and a groom from West Virginia. Bluefield, VA is Virginia’s tallest town in Virginia and Bluefield, WV is the highest city of its size east of


Denver, Colorado. Nature has endowed the Bluefields with spectacular scenery. The community itself is in a valley, with a level, narrow center section being occupied mainly by the railroad and businesses. Tazewell and Mercer county area’s early settlers were predominately farmers, and followed the traditional pattern of foothills farming that characterized pioneering settlements all along the eastern slope of the Allegheny Mountain Range on the western fringe of the fertile Valley of the Virginias. But that way of life would change dramatically with the largescale commercial exploitation of the region’s rich mineral and forest resources. The Norfolk & Western railway drove a line from Radford, Virginia to the eastern Tazewell County town of

Pocahontas in 1882, and started hauling out coal the following year. In 1905, the Virginian Railway brought a rail line through Princeton that sparked coal rail competition through the first half of the 20th Century that ended with the merger of the two railroads in the mid-1950s. Within a few years of the start of commercial coal mining in the region, huge timber companies emerged throughout the region to take advantage of the region’s incredible forest resources.
