Teachers

 

Of course. Sourcing a definitive and exhaustive list of teachers from the 19th century can be challenging due to the nature of record-keeping from that era. However, historical accounts, particularly William T. Price's History of Pocahontas County, West Virginia (1901), and other public records provide the names of many educators who served the county's schools.
