Hernandez Commander Chapter # 30 Dear Sir: In 1787 my great great grandfa- ther Robert Lilly, along with Josiah Meador came to the valley of Big Bluestone and started the settle- ment of Lilly. For years our ances- tors carved a community out of the wilderness. Life was extremely hard, mostly hand to mouth. These early settlers were the forefathers of many of the residents in Sum- mers County today. In this valley the settlers married, raised fami- lies, grew their crops, made moun- tain drink and were fiercily loyal w~en it came to standing against at was right or wrong. They would band together to protect their own against the enemy, thus they were able to survive. Over the years changes came to our ancestors, not necessarily by their choosing, but by the govern- ment of the United States, the State of West Virginia and by local politi- cians near and far who were tired of having lower Bellepoint, Avis and on down stream flooded by the New River, which is fed by the Big and Little Bluestone Rivers. It was from this political move a great injury came to a county and its citizens. There was great debate, but in the end a dam on the New River was begun. Land by the acre was condemed to build the Bluestone Dam. Family after family was forced to vacate their property, nothing was left to the residents of the communities of True, Lilly, Bull Falls, etc.; not even the dead was left in peace. The whole Lilly Cemetery (among oth- ers), was relocated to a different part of the county, away from the land they had loved and died for. Trees cut, houses were demolished: even as the owners were being forced off the property by Federal and County law officials Many of our older relations were never able to a ust to the injustice done to them by the Government. They simply grieved them selves to death. Any individual who is a descen- dent of these early Summers Countians know the pain and loss. that is still felt today, 42 years later over the building of the Bluestone Dam. However, the wound is again open due to a contract signed by the elected officials which will give one- third of the proceeds to the city of White Sulphur Springs and one- third to the city of Phillippi, if the Hydroelectric Power Project is al- lowed to continue as it is written. Two places outside our own com- munity! At least what happened when the dam was built proved to be a necessity for the county -- as a whole, but now what is happening is an even greater tragedy. Citizens of Summers County know we need the Hydroelectric Power Plant at the Bluestone Dam for the survival of Summers County, in a combined community of local and county residents. It is even more critical that our local elected officials work together and that WE THE PEOPLE see that this work- ing together was accomplished to keep what was taken from our ancestors remains here in our county. If we can pursue the needed financing of the Hydroelectric Proj- ect locally why do we the citizens of Summers County need to give 60% of our families heritiage to citizens and people we don't even know? Why should we let our children move to North Carolina because of no jobs? Or no future because we let our officials sign away what was ours in the beginning!
