According to George Smith, the monument to Chief Cornstalk once stood in the yard of the Mason County Courthouse in Point Pleasant, W.Va. When the courthouse was expanded sometime in the late 1950s or early 1960s, the monument was moved to Tu-Endie-Wei Park in Point Pleasant at the junction of the Ohio and Kanawha rivers. "I believe the move of the monument dispelled all legends that the monument marked the grave of the Chief, as no remains were found under the monument," he said. The monument commemorates the frontiersmen who fought and died at the Battle of Point Pleasant against Chief Cornstalk on Oct. 10, 1774. The battle is recognized as the decisive engagement in a proactive series of Indian wars.

According to Ken Reffeitt, the building behind the relocated Chief Cornstalk monument is the "Mansion House," originally an inn built by Walter Newman in 1797. The Colonel Charles Lewis Chapter N.S.D.A.R. restored the building and furnished it with period items. It has served as the chapter's meeting place since 1901. It is open to the public during the summer months.

John Brickels, a native of Newark, Ohio, and a graduate of Wittenberg University, was head coach of all sports at Huntington High School from 1939 through 1944. His Huntington teams were in the state high school basketball tournament four of his six years, made it to the finals twice and won the state championship in 1944.
