Listed in the National Registrar of Historic Places in 2000, the Greater Newport Rural Historic District includes five distinct sections: Sinking Creek, Spruce Run, Clover Hollow, Plowscrew, and Mountain Lake.  The historic district is agricultural and rural in character, consisting mostly of nineteenth and early-twentieth century farmsteads.  Overall, the district includes approximately 21,085 acres.","Closely associated with the effort to designate this area as a rural historic district was the struggle by community members against AEP's proposed powerline.  In March 1990, the contestation over proposed powerline routes was initiated when the energy company Apco -- which would change its name to AEP during the course of the powerline battle -- announced its plans to build a transmission line from West Virginia to Cloverdale.  The estimated date for its completion was 1998.  Following this announcement, opposition arose from communities along the proposed route.  In Giles County, Virginia, concerned community members joined together to create the organization Citizens Organized to Protect the Environment (COPE), which fought against the proposed powerline. \n     \nFor more detailed information on the powerline struggle and establishment of the Greater Newport Rural Historical District see the following:","Carlisle, Fred.  \"Insiders, Outsiders, and the Struggle for Community,\" Appalachian Journal, Vol. 26, No. 3 (Spring 1999), 240-251.","Carlisle, Fred.  \"The Past in the Present: The Greater Newport Rural Historic District,\" Appalachian Journal, Vol. 32, No. 1 (Fall 2004), 50-66.","Sources Consulted:","\"Greater Newport Rural Historic District, Giles County, Virginia,\" http://www.cr.nps.gov/NR/publications/bulletins/01workshop/newport.htm","The processing, arrangement, and description of the Newport and Clover Hollow, Giles County History Collection was completed in November 2013.","The Newport and Clover Hollow, Giles County History collection contains oral history interviews, transcripts, notes, newspaper clippings, historic district survey forms, a video tape, and a geological survey map related to the creation of the Greater Newport Rural Historic District.

They form part of the Greater Newport Rural Historic District, which is located in the Eastern District of Giles County.  Listed in the National Registrar of Historic Places in 2000, the Greater Newport Rural Historic District includes five distinct sections: Sinking Creek, Spruce Run, Clover Hollow, Plowscrew, and Mountain Lake.  The historic district is agricultural and rural in character, consisting mostly of nineteenth and early-twentieth century farmsteads.  Overall, the district includes approximately 21,085 acres.","Closely associated with the effort to designate this area as a rural historic district was the struggle by community members against AEP's proposed powerline.  In March 1990, the contestation over proposed powerline routes was initiated when the energy company Apco -- which would change its name to AEP during the course of the powerline battle -- announced its plans to build a transmission line from West Virginia to Cloverdale.  The estimated date for its completion was 1998.  Following this announcement, opposition arose from communities along the proposed route.  In Giles County, Virginia, concerned community members joined together to create the organization Citizens Organized to Protect the Environment (COPE), which fought against the proposed powerline. \n     \nFor more detailed information on the powerline struggle and establishment of the Greater Newport Rural Historical District see the following:","Carlisle, Fred.  \"Insiders, Outsiders, and the Struggle for Community,\" Appalachian Journal, Vol. 26, No. 3 (Spring 1999), 240-251.","Carlisle, Fred.  \"The Past in the Present: The Greater Newport Rural Historic District,\" Appalachian Journal, Vol. 32, No. 1 (Fall 2004), 50-66.","Sources Consulted:","\"Greater Newport Rural Historic District, Giles County, Virginia,\" http://www.cr.nps.gov/NR/publications/bulletins/01workshop/newport.htm","The processing, arrangement, and description of the Newport and Clover Hollow, Giles County History Collection was completed in November 2013.","The Newport and Clover Hollow, Giles County History collection contains oral history interviews, transcripts, notes, newspaper clippings, historic district survey forms, a video tape, and a geological survey map related to the creation of the Greater Newport Rural Historic District.

More familiarly known as Shannon Miller, he was employed as a store clerk by 1880, while continuing to live in the Walkers Creek District home of his parents. On April 7, 1886, Miller married Alice Bane (1863-1958), the daughter of Samuel and Lucy Baker Bane. The Millers had six children. By 1886, Miller was a partner in Miller and Bane, a general mercantile store at White Gate, where Miller also served as postmaster. Records indicate that Miller later changed business partners: a 1912 ledger bears the name \"T. S. Miller and Bro.\" While operating the store, Miller also engaged in farming. The 1920 census lists him as a farmer; the 1930 census as a farm manager. Thomas Shannon Miller died in 1949 and is buried in the Walkers Creek Cemetery in Pearisburg (Giles County).","The guide to the Thomas S.
