Tory Camps / Seneca Trail

Military
3
Near Harman, remains of two Tory camps can still be seen where some British sympathizers hid during the American Revolution. They encamped here in 1775-1776 to escape laws enacted against them by Virginia. The Seneca Trail passed nearby from the Tygart Valley to the South Branch Valley, and in 1863 thousands of horses and cattle captured by Generals Imboden and Jones crossed the mountains by this trail.
