History of New Straitsville
New Straitsville was founded in 1870 as a coal mining town by the New Straitsville Mining Company. The town grew quickly and by 1880 its population exceeded 4,000. Coal mining terminated in 1884 when a labor dispute at the mine ended with a group of miners sending a burning coal car into the mine, igniting the coal. The heat from the fire was so great that residents could draw hot water directly from wells to brew coffee. The fire in the New Straitsville mine burns to this day. New Straitsville is also famous for its annual "Moonshine Festival" on Memorial Day Weekend.
