Description | The Sistersville Daily Review, originating as the West Virginia Oil Review under John H. McCoy, chronicled the burgeoning oil industry and local news in Sistersville. After McCoy's tenure, John P. Glass renamed it, but a shift away from oil coverage led to rebranding as the Daily Oil Review under Harry W. Smith. Despite ties to the Tyler Democrat, the paper stayed neutral in politics, prioritizing oil industry updates. Ownership changes and shifts in focus led to its eventual decline, ceasing publication in 1937. The paper's trajectory mirrors Sistersville's industrial evolution and underscores the region's reliance on niche news during its oil boom. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1905 of this newspaper. |
