WI-IEELWRIGI-IT COLLECTION ADDED
'I‘he Wheelwright Collection, an extensive archive documenting the history of
Wheelwright, Kentucky, is now open and available for public research in the
I Department of Special Collections and Archives. Wheelwright, located in
r eastern Kentucky‘s Floyd County, is a town created by the coal industry. Elk
Horn Coal Corporation developed Wheelwright as a coal camp in 1911 —— the same
year the railroad line into town was completed. g
In 1930, the Inland Steel Company bought Wheelwright because the coal seams
there were rich with metallurgical coal necessary for making steel, and for
the next 35 years Inland Steel mined coal and developed the town into what
many have called a "model" company town. By 1966, when Inland sold
Wheelwright to Island Creek Coal Company, the town properties were showing
signs of physical deterioration. Within eleven months Island Creek, keeping
the mines, sold the town to Mountain Investment Company.
l " The cohesiveness of the Wheelwright community was severely tested during the
Mountain Investment years. The buildings and grounds further deteriorated
, during that company‘s ownership. In addition, Island Creek shut down its
i mining operation in the early 1970‘s, leaving Wheelwright with a severe
employment crisis. In 1979 Mountain Investment sold the town to the Kentucky
n Housing Corporation, a state agency, whose aim was to revive the town and
transfer ownership to the residents.
The Wheelwright Collection contains records from the last three companies who
owned Wheelwright: Inland Steel, Island Creek and Mountain Investment. These
documents create a vivid picture of company town life from the company‘s
perspective. Containing everything from blueprints to photographs and
building maintenance records to office files, the Wheelwright Collection is a
valuable resource for a wide range of scholars who specialize in social,
economic, labor, architectural and business history. Researchers in
Appalachian studies and community studies will find the collection rich in
details of coal town life. More importantly, the residents of Wheelwright,
past and present, will have an archival collection which documents a part of
their history and is a testament to their endurance as a community.

 BOOK SALE THANK YOU
l Thanks to all the Library staff who took time away from their work to help
. with the Book Sale in April. It was the most profitable sale in recent years,
- with proceeds of slightly more than $6,500. The money will be put with other
funds toward acquiring a new van for the library —— a badly needed piece of
equipment. (Submitted by Paula Pope.)
