["St. Joseph Settlement aka the German Settlement is a rural community of farms on the Marshall-Wetzel County borders, settled by German Catholic immigrants in the 1850s. As Cheryl Harshman says in her e-WV article on the settlement, the church, schoolhouse (now a public library and parish museum), rectory, community building, and cemetery are still the heart of the St. Joseph community.On June 22, 2016, Harshman hosted state folklorist Emily Hilliard on a visit to the settlement, meeting community members Jim and Debbie Frohnapfel and Ray Estep and visiting the church and cemetery. In this interview, Estep and the Frohnapfels talk about the St. Joseph Settlement community past and present, the church, and the graveyard.Learn more via e-WV: https://www.wvencyclopedia.org/articles/158"]%
