“William Grimm carried mail on horseback from New Martinsville to Pine Grove. Sam Morgan built a store about six and one half miles East of New Martinsville. When he decided to add a Post Office to his store the post office had to be named. He was asked to submit three names to the government and they would select one. Sam had three daughters so he submitted their names: Lottie, Minnie and Adeline. Minnie was chosen. Minnie married Ruben Yoho. Lottie married William Grimm and Adeline married Benjamin Martin. “ (History of Wetzel County, West Virginia 1983)
