Steph Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Okay, this is weird. The colors say Akro. The pattern is strange. Could be a rejected marble dug from the Akro site. Where in West Virginia did your grandfather live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fentonacres Posted January 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 My grandfather, and great-grandfather for that matter, lived in St Marys, WV. Pretty much all their lives. They come from a long line of Williams and such. As a sidebar, my great-grandfather had a photography studio on a riverboat - but eventually parked it in St Marys on the Ohio. My father lived in St. Marys all his life until he went to WVU and then off to WWII. Since these marbles came from my grandparent's home in St Marys, I am pretty sure most were collected prior to my father's adulthood (born in 1917, off to college in the 1930s).
