Summers County Salutes Our Own

Many great people have come from Summers County, West Virginia. By great, we refer to those who have made significant contributions to the community, and/or have ventured out into the world and made an impact. Their greatness has no relationship to how much wealth they achieved, but to how they've conducted their lives. Below is a list that continues to grow, telling the stories of many of our hard-working honest citizens. Take some time, enjoy your beverage, and read about our county's citizens and their lives.
