The Shenandoah Valley region of western
Virginia
and
West Virginia
is bounded by the
Blue Ridge Mountains
to the
east and
the Appalachian and Allegheny Plateaus to the west. It is located within the Ridge and Valley region and
is a portion of the Great
Appalachian Valley.
This valley includes the counties of
Augusta
, Rockingham, Shenandoah, Page,
Warren
,
Frederick
, and Clarke of VA,
and the
counties of Berkeley, and Jefferson of WV.
Between
Roanoke
in the south and Harpers Ferry in the north,
where the
Shenandoah
River
joins the Potomac, the Valley contains municipalities of various sizes like
Staunton
,
Harrisonburg
,
Winchester
,
Lexington
,
Waynesboro
, and Front Royal. The northern section of the Shenandoah Valley
is split in half by the
Massanutten
Mountain
range.
The majority of Germans immigrants came to the valley from MD and PA prior to 1800, with a few from NJ, NY,
NC, and eastern
VA.
