Morgan County, West Virginia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Morgan County is bordered to the northwest by Allegany County, Maryland, to the north by Washington County, Maryland, to the east by Berkeley County, West Virginia, to the southeast by Frederick County, Virginia, and to the southwest by Hampshire County, West Virginia. |
 | | Bath's population increased during and immediately after the American Revolutionary War as wounded soldiers and others came to the area believing that the warm springs had medicinal qualities. |
 | | Bath later became known as Berkeley Springs, primarily because the town's post office took that name (combining Governor Norborne Berkeley's last name with the warm springs found there) to avoid confusion with another post office, located in southeastern Virginia, which was already called Bath. |
