About Point Pleasant, West Virginia
Point Pleasant is a city of 4,070 people in Mason County, where the Kanawha River flows into the Ohio. A Shawnee village called Upper Shawneetown stood here before 1749. That year Pierre Joseph Céloron de Blainville, exploring for France, buried a lead plaque where the rivers join, claiming the whole Ohio Valley for his king, but the local tribes stayed loyal to the British.
Col. Andrew Lewis set up Camp Point Pleasant during the battle of 1774, and the settlement that grew around it kept the name. It received its charter in 1794 and became the county seat when Mason County was split from Kanawha County in 1804. Growth came slowly, and some people blamed a curse laid by the killing of Chief Cornstalk. In 1819 Jonas Smith laid out the town on its first recorded plat, and incorporation followed in 1833.
“It is the seat of justice of Mason county Virginia, and contains about 15 or 20 families, a log courthouse, a log jail and as usual (but unfortunately) in the Virginia towns, a pillory and whipping post.”
- The battle of 1774On October 10, 1774, Col. Andrew Lewis led over one thousand Virginia militiamen against Shawnee and Mingo warriors of about equal number under Chief Cornstalk, on the ground the town now covers. The Virginians won. Locals call it the Revolution's first battle, and in 1908 the U.S. Senate authorized a monument here honoring it that way, though most historians count it as part of Lord Dunmore's War. Point Pleasant Battleground joined the National Register in 1970.
- Fort RandolphIn 1776 a new fort, named for the Virginia official Peyton Randolph, went up where the earlier Fort Blair stockade had stood. A mob killed Chief Cornstalk, held prisoner there, on November 10, 1777. The fort survived an attack the next year, was abandoned in 1779 and rebuilt nearby in 1785. The town now covers the original site, so a replica built in 1973 and 1974 for the battle's 200th anniversary stands in Krodel Park, about a mile away.
- Raiders at the courthouseMore than 1000 Mason County men joined the Union army, while just one company of 61 fought for the Confederacy. In March 1863, during the Jones-Imboden Raid, Confederate horsemen of the 6th and 8th Virginia Cavalry struck the Mason County Courthouse, believing munitions were kept there. It was the only fight of the war in Point Pleasant, and the bullet holes stayed in the walls until a new courthouse replaced it in 1954.
- The Silver Bridge, 1967The Silver Bridge collapsed in 1967, and 46 people died. The disaster brought Point Pleasant wide notice across the country.
- Home of the MothmanLocal legend says the Mothman, a creature that warns of coming disaster, lives in an abandoned World War II TNT factory near town. John Keel's 1975 book The Mothman Prophecies inspired a film released in January 2002. Today the town has a Mothman Museum and a 12-foot metal statue of the creature, and its yearly Mothman Festival brings tours, pageants, balls, films and music.
