Boydville

Boydville is a late Georgian style mansion in Martinsburg, West Virginia. The house is near the center of the associated Boydville Historic District in 15.35 acres (6.21 ha). The house was built in 1812 by Elisha Boyd, a member of the Virginia House of Delegates and an officer of the Fourth Virginia Regiment in the War of 1812. The two story stucco-covered stone house consists of a center wing with nine rooms, a right wing that originally served as the nursery, and a left wing that housed the kitchens. The center-hall main house retains its original woodwork, with hand-carved door frames and mantelpieces imported from England. Interior partitions are brick covered with plaster. Elisha Boyd left the house to his daughter Mary at his death in 1841. Mary was married to Charles J. Faulkner I (1806–1884), was a member of the Virginia House of Delegates who advocated a gradual abolition of slavery and the forcible annexation of Texas from Mexico. Faulkner served as ambassador to France in the James Buchanan administration, 1859–1861. Faulkner was Stonewall Jackson's assistant adjutant-general during the American Civil War, and was temporary president of the West Virginia Constitutional Convention of 1872. Faulkner's son, Charles J. Faulkner II (1847–1929) became a United States senator. During the American Civil War Boydville and two other houses were marked for burning by General David Hunter in retaliation for the burning of Maryland Governor Bradford's house. On an hour's notice Mary Faulkner obtained an exemption from Abraham Lincoln, saving the house. Boydville was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. Digital Art In addition, Boydville lends its name to a metaphorical location that is said to store all things "Boyd"; flawed or otherwise unsound interactive initiatives referred to in the context of digital art and computational or generative design.

Buffalo High School (West Virginia)

Buffalo High School is a high school in Buffalo, West Virginia, United States, serving the northern part of Putnam County, including Eleanor. It is a part of Putnam County Schools. The school colors are navy and gold, and the athletic mascot and nickname are the Bison. Sometimes sports scores refer to the school as "Buffalo-Putnam" or "Buffalo of Putnam" because there used to be another Buffalo High School in Wayne County, but this practice fell into disuse after Buffalo-Wayne High School was consolidated with Vinson High School and Ceredo-Kenova High School to form Spring Valley High School for the 1999 academic year. The school has approximately 380 students, placing it in Class AA for sports. This is the smallest of the four schools in Putnam County, and for years the county attempted to close the school. However, this was always defeated by voters. A new building was finished in 2012, insuring the continued existence of the school.

Camp Dawson (West Virginia)

Camp Dawson is a West Virginia Army National Guard facility in Preston County, West Virginia. It is one of a handful of dedicated military posts operated by the West Virginia National Guard (as opposed to smaller armories), houses the West Virginia Army National Guard's officer candidate school. It is named in honor of William M.O. Dawson, the 12th governor of West Virginia. History Camp Dawson was established on May 7, 1909, when the West Virginia Legislature authorized the purchase of 196.5 acres (0.795 km2) of land on Dunkard Bottom along the Cheat River. The camp was named in honor of William M. O. Dawson, a native of Preston County, who had just left office as Governor of West Virginia in 1908. Troops first trained at Camp Dawson during that summer and continued until the entry of the U.S. into World War I in 1917. The camp was not used again until 1928 when it was reestablished as a training site for the West Virginia State Militia, a predecessor organization to the West Virginia National Guard. Units trained regularly at the camp until the outbreak of World War II at which time the state government leased the camp for use as a prisoner of war facility. Since the original land purchase, six additional tracts have been acquired by the installation bringing the total acreage to 4,177.5 acres (16.906 km2). Training opportunities that are unique to the site and its environs, such as the very rugged local terrain, have attracted U.S Army units and sister military services (both Active and Reserve) for many years. The campus hosts selection for Delta Force. Tenant units C Company, 2nd Battalion, 19th Special Forces Group (Airborne) 197th Regiment (Regional Training Institute) SOD-E (Special Operations Detachment - Europe) Dawson Army Airfield The first airfield at Camp Dawson, Dawson Army Airfield, was constructed in the early 1970s on the left-descending bank of the Cheat River across from the Camp Dawson base. By 1976, this was replaced with the current airfield on the right-descending bank just south of the main base. References External links WV National Guard Camp Dawson webpage

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. History In 1928, research by Jakes E. Banks and Lulu B. Moore found there were 44 counties with 4-H camps for whites and none with camps for African Americans. John W. Davis, the president of West Virginia State College helped lead efforts to gain state and federal support for the camp. It opened in 1942. Camps in the state were desegregated eventually. The campsite is now a cultural arts center. A historical marker commemorates its history. The site hosts The Appalachian String Band Music Festival.
