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!
