Read more about the women and take the West Virginia Women's History Heritage Trail tour on theclio.com. The trail includes two dozen historical sites related to women's history throughout West Virginia. The trail was built as an educational resource and its creators selected these two dozen sites from many nominations and hope to create additional trails that reflect the history of the state.
