Time Travel: BHS's 1999 Valedictorians, Salutatorians and a Look at Eastpointe Area with No Businesses
By Dick Duez on July 21, 2024 from History Blog
These are Bridgeport's 1999 academic leaders when Harrison County Schools recognized valedictorians and salutatorians. The valadictorians include Jason Jackson, Matt Hazey, Ashley Maxey, Jaimee Compton, Allison Starkey, Jessica Harvey, Jaclyn Elsey, Abbey Stanley, Kristen Moore, Christina Grisso, and salutatorians Kathleen Miller, Lea Sellas, Whitney Moore, Andrea Rossetti, and Julie Felton.
Although the year of this photo is unknown, those with keen knowledge of the development of Harrison County and Clarksburg should be able to get a fix at about what time it was taken. The image appears to have been taken from the front seat of an automobile traveling on Route 50 East prior to th intersection with Interstate 79. The background is vacant of business and today it is filled at the Eastpointe development. It appears earth work is taking place in the area, but unable to know for sure. Feel free to comment about it in the comment section below.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This ongoing photo feature of pictures from Bridgeport and throughout the Mountain State is part of local historian Richard "Dick" Duez's collection, the unofficial historian of Bridgeport, would appreciate any scanned photos emailed to him for use here or to include in his ongoing efforts to preserve local history.
