Some roots run deeper than memory.
Before Naomi Lee Nutter Henson became a wife, mother, and grandmother, she was a West Virginia girl whose life was shaped by family, faith, the mountains she called home—and losses that arrived far too early.
West Virginia Roots follows Naomi from the Powers Farm and McFarlane Chapel Church through childhood upheaval, migration, marriage, motherhood, and a new life in California. Through grief, betrayal, change, and family division, she carried forward love, resilience, and an enduring sense of belonging.
Drawing on historical research, family photographs, land records, military documents, cemetery records, and personal memories, Amber Baker preserves not only her grandmother’s life, but also the generations and Appalachian heritage that shaped it.
Warm, honest, and visually rich, this family memoir will speak to readers drawn to West Virginia history, genealogy, women’s lives, inherited memory, and the complicated bonds that hold families together.
More than a collection of names and dates, it is a story of survival, remembrance, and emotional inheritance—a promise that the people and places that made us will not be forgotten.
Because some places never leave us—and some stories deserve to be remembered.
