Iaeger West Virginia: An Appalachian Coal Town in McDowell County

Iaeger West Virginia is near the heart of the nation's coal bin! To understand real Appalachia you have to start with coal and coal mining. Iaeger is located in McDowell County, West Virginia, and has roots in the timber and coal industries. Part of the unique melting pot that is Appalachia, Iaeger also has some interesting pre-Revolutionary War history which we uncovered in this trip exploring Appalachia!

Wow, I'm surprised to find any videos about Ieager. My father's side of the family are all from Ieager and surrounding counties. Lots of stories come out of these counties. Wild bunch of relatives and their friends, lots of folks picking guitars and singing. Many happy memories of sitting on my Grandmammas' front porch watching all of these characters.

I actually come from a village in North East Wales called Gresford. I went down the pit in 1973, the following year it closed ,I went past the sealed mineshaft where in 1934, 266 men lost their lives, so perhaps being from Wales, we have a connect with West Virginia.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

A small town that helped build a huge part of US. Iaeger is a "BIG" roll in our history. Imagine the steel and other items, along with "ELECTRICITY" that came from all the coal that came from that small town. Also that Marathon Gas Station you passed, in the start of the video, belonged to my uncle Sam Butler's gas station. To that train engine should be sitting in Iaeger and not somewhere else, because the coal started from there! Great overhead footage, hurts me bad to see this town this way. Played a role in a big part of my life. God Bless you, love your video's! (Glen) WV.

Just got back from a trip to Washington DC via West Virginia. The beauty of this state is absolutely stunning. Traveling the small highways and roads off the major interstates is an absolute must for anyone who is a history buff. This place is incredible and easily rivals the larger moutainous states such as Colorado. There are 10 times the amount of roads and byways cutting through all of Appalachia which makes access to even the smallest of towns possible. Keep up the great work. If not for the hard working people of Appalachia there would have been no coal to fire the blast furnaces of the steel industry which inspired the entire Industrial Revolution and built great cities and infastructure all across America. Sadly there are people working overtime to destroy the entire coal industry and along with it an entire way of life. Dont let this happen. Appalachia deserves much better and its coal industry should be celebrated not demonized. Its a god damn shame.

[@MountainRoots]

It's unfortunate, but Appalachia- especially WV, East TN & KY have suffered from gross yellow journalism that has given such a derogatory misconception of the area. Many people simply are unaware of the region's beauty, and its wonderful people! I intend to contribute more objective cultural journalism with my work. Thanks for watching!

Drove by Iaeger back in 2011 while on a solo motorcycle tour. Decided to take rt52 to head towards an over nite in Pikeville, ky. Left Bluefield VA at about 3pm in early October. What a mistake! As darkness fell, fatigue st in after an already long day. I was now driving on rt 52 in the dark, leap-frogging a huge coal train along the way. Suddenly I came upon the “downtown” of Iaeger on my right…..clearly looking abandoned, but still with some streetlites….and the wail of the train horn reverberating around the small valley. Due to severe fatigue from riding nearly all day, the train horn and the sight of iaeger, I was struck with an eerie feeling….. I later made Pikeville at about 10:30 pm….got into the hotel room, turned on the bathroom light and was stunned to see my face was nearly completely blackened from coal dust! I had been leap-frogging with that coal train for hours. On the return trip about a week later, I decided to take the same route, Ute this time in the daytime. Stopped in Welch, met Tom Acosta, a local artist, and learned about what happened to Iaeger. Motorcycle: Moto Guzzi 2001 California EV. I still have it 🤓

[@MountainRoots]

Great story! I know Tom, in fact he and my wife worked on some art projects back in the early 2000's. Still ride the bike much?

[@mikeamaraln1mx]

@@MountainRoots Now the bike is 20 years old....and I'm hitting 69 this summer. The bike is on-the-road and ready-to-roll....but as far as long-distance solo rides...ah, thinkin' twice about that at this point in my life. :) Tom was a very nice guy to talk with...he was painting a huge mural (of a clown?? or something like that?) in downtown Welch. He did direct me to some type of drive-in restaurant. I had fried cat-fish for lunch, served by a woman with a classic bee-hive hairdo :) Iaeger was a strange experience...especially coming across it at night. The road was damn windy at points with hairpin turns, and my arms were killin' me from grippin' the handlebars for over 8 hours. Not fun to do that trip in the dark and deeply fatigued. The hairpins were tough because on the bike, you have to slow down to a crawl, almost at the point of tipping over :)

Iaeger is what would probably be considered my grandmothers home town. She was the daughter of a coal miner and born in a cabin a mile or two north of town. I know her father worked at a few different mines and they moved to Welch eventually before ultimately moving out of state because her mother was very sick and needed medical treatment, but I would assume she went to the school you showed for at least a couple of years before they moved.

I lived and grew up by the tug river at a place called Hagers' Curve. The curve on rt 52 is located between Roderfield and Wilmor. This is where my people were for several generations. I traveled along the tug on rt 52 everyday to and from school in Iaeger. From 2nd grade till 9th I spent a lot of miles along that stretch of Appalachia. In the late 60's and 70's it was a busy road, full of cars, coal trucks, log trucks and all other sorts of transportation. Though this video was a short drive by, it brought back memories of a place, that during the hay day was full of people and businesses. Seeing the school was powerful, and despite its sad state of condition now, it was staffed by great teachers, and coaches. It was a place that changed lives. It gave kids the tools to go out into the world and be successful..I'm forever grateful for those people and that place.. thanks so much for shining a light on McDowell County, their are a million great untold stories there..
