Preserving Pocahontas

Two Pocahontas County School buses parked on the football field behind Marlinton High School in the early 1940s. The group of men is most likely the school bus drivers. The back of the First National Bank building can be seen in the distance at left and St. John’s Episcopal Church can be seen on the right.
