WEST VIRGINIA LUNCH ROOM

Sometime in the 1920s, members of the Hedges family stand outside their West Virginia Lunch Room at 400 3rd Street, at the corner of Avery Street. The restaurant was located inside the West Virginia Hotel, which offered furnished rooms to workmen from surrounding factories, such as the sprawling Parkersburg Mill Company next door, on Green Street between Second and Third.   (Courtesy of Don Hedges.)
