Christmas Past in Weirton, West Virginia from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s Courtesy Weirton Steel Company Archives and the Weirton Area Museum & Cultural Center. Compiled by Smith & Jones
What a fantastic look at Christmas past in Weirton. I truly enjoyed this heartwarming and very nicely produced video. Thank you for sharing this wonderful look into the past.
I grew up there from 1962-1972 and went to St Paul grade school. I moved to Arizona and eventually California where I have lived for close to 40 years. I have fond memories of Weirton. I Went back once in 1986 for my mothers funeral and 1994 for a short visit, but haven't been back since. Maybe some day. Loved the Christmas lights along Main St.
So many members of my family worked down the mill , brings back good memories . I was born in 1968 so some of the photos were a tad bit before my time but remember walking to go shopping down town when I was little with my mom thanks again enjoyed it very much
IF only the government of West Virginia will have installments on TAXES; be lenient to all; tax exemptions to both resident and incoming residents; then, West Virginia will bloom again. IF they will NOT ease up; then, they like to CLOSE West Virginia for good. A pity. We can and we can still do this. I BELIEVE!

Thank you so much for the cherished memories of Weirton.Nancye Hertnick Dawley
I was born in Weirton. I miss it often. Those beautiful sunny summer days on those dusty country roads outside of town.
What a nice job you have done preserving our memories.
Really nice photos
Beautiful!!!
