Christmas with the Cockaynes Open House

  • Cockayne Farmstead 1111 Wheeling Avenue Glen Dale, WV, 26038 United States (map)

Mark your calendars to join us for Christmas with the Cockaynes.  Our annual Christmas Open House will take place on Monday, December 4 from 6-9 pm.  Tour the house and hear from several generations of the Cockayne family about the celebrations that took place during their time.  Speak to Sam Shaw returning from World War II, later to become the editor of the Moundsville Echo, then listen to the Oriole Banjo and Mandolin Club, made up of the Cockayne sisters and their friends in the 1890s, rehearsing for their next show.  Find out about early Moundsville with Bennett and Vincent Cockayne from the 1850s, and finally have a visit with Santa himself! 

We look forward to celebrating the holidays with you!
