Projects in 2023

---

The Martinsburg Historical Society has been involved with the restoration of the town's abandoned cemeteries.   We want to thank the volunteers who have already completed the enormous task of clearing the site of the overgrown brush. The restoration was completed in the fall of 2022. Re-dedication and military honors were rendered in the fall of 2023. We have a book out about the cemetery and the project. 

The West Martinsburg Mercantile will be opening on April 1st for its' fifth season. Owner Kin Gracey has brought back the neighborhood store. It looks much like the old Warren Foote Store that was in the community for 45 years. She carries groceries, household items, and items made by local crafters from ground coffee to aprons, stationery, homemade baked goods, fresh fruits and vegetables- and a multitude of other items. You can spend an hour just browsing in this little store! Kim also carries books published by the Martinsburg Historical Society. (Listed below) Visit the West Martinsburg Mercantile. You will not be disappointed and you can not possibly come away without a purchase. It is a walk back in time.
