Got sucked in to watching a documentary about a family from WV last night. Apparently they are local celebrities, surname “White”.
It was a train wreck; I was so mesmerized I finally forced myself to bed @ 12:30 AM. The life was so foreign. In WV’s defense, they were able to find two citizens in the town who were embarrassed by the White family.
That “White” clan is from Boone Co....but the family name is all over...it can be common in certain counties...but the one’s who have stayed generation after generation — they are Hollar People - and they won’t be leaving anytime soon...too illiterate to read a map and legally drive - let alone have enough money to buy gas once they cross state lines...
