Jewell Ridge Community
Welcome to All things Jewell Ridge
In 1902, George W. St.Clair, an attorney from Wytheville moved to Tazewell to practice law. Soon after Mr. St. Clair’s move into the county, Thomas M. Righter, a Pennsylvania anthracite coal mine operator joined him. They procured contracts from the landowners for the purchase of the land. The entire boundary consisted of more than 18,000 acres. In 1908 the survey was made for a railroad in the southeast corner, which is on Big Creek in Tazewell County. The first mine began producing coal in 1910, and shortly thereafter, the Jewell Ridge Coal Corporation was chartered.
