This is an effort by Steve Nicholson to learn how to create a webpage and do something useful in the proces. If you have suggestions or things you would like to include, please e-mail me at SNickelsn@aol.com. I have been very grateful for the kind words of encouragement from former residents of Covington, Clifton Forge, and Alleghany County. Ever since I got my site listed on Yahoo, the number of reponses has increased substantially. These messages give me motivation to include more information and pictures about your former hometown. Thanks to all of you.
