Pocahontas County, situated in the great state of West Virginia, was officially established on December 21, 1821, and named in honor of the Native American princess, Pocahontas. This county is located in the southeastern part of the state, sharing a border with Virginia to its south. The area was initially populated by Native American tribes before European settlers arrived in the late 1600s and early 1700s.

One of the significant moments in the history of Pocahontas County was the battle of Droop Mountain, which took place on November 6, 1863, during the American Civil War. Union forces were able to claim victory at this battle, which effectively broke the Confederate resistance in the region.

The county covers a total area of 942 square miles, and among its picturesque scenery, it houses the Monongahela National Forest, a protected area spanning almost 920,000 acres known for its vast, unspoiled wilderness, plant and animal biodiversity, and recreational opportunities.

A fun fact about Pocahontas County is that it is home to the Green Bank Observatory, which houses the world's largest fully steerable radio telescope. The observatory is designated as a National Radio Quiet Zone, which significantly limits radio frequency broadcasts in the area to minimize interference with the telescope. Consequently, the use of electronic devices such as cell phones and Wi-Fi is restricted in this region, attracting people who are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation, considering this area a safe haven.
