| Rea of Hope The Story of Betsy Fletcher Rea by Sally Holliday |
newspaper articles, letters written by Sally and
Betsy’s mother, and journal entries written by Betsy
herself, to weave the tale of one family’s battle
against polio, and in later years, alcoholism.
But Betsy wasn’t a quitter. She revived the
determination that helped her fight polio and used
it to defeat alcoholism. For the next 18 years, until
her death in 1999, Betsy devoted her life to
supporting others in their battles against addiction.
In 2005, the Rea of Hope Fellowship Home—
named in Betsy Rea’s honor—opened its doors in
Charleston, WV, to help women in West Virginia as
they recover from drug and alcohol addiction.

| Rumors of War Volume II of the Kanawha Chronicles by Helen Margaret Bassitt |
While the first volume of the Kanawha Chronicles,
Tales from Coalsmouth, focused primarily on people
who were among the first settlers of southern West
Virginia, this second volume, Rumors of War,
examines the influential lives led by some of the
descendants of those early pioneers.
Many of the descendants of the Reverend John
Thompson traveled throughout this country and the
world. Rumors of War tells many of the stories of those
men who fought and, sometimes, died in Virginia,
Alabama, Ohio, Florida, Texas, California, Mexico,
Washington Territory, and Europe.
These men and their families endured every privation
war can force upon those who rise to the defense of
their country. Rumors of War is the second of three
volumes of the Kanawha Chronicles, which tell of the
people of the Kanawha Valley and the generations
they gave rise to.
