  My Visits to Schuyler, Virginia (The Real Waltons Mountain)
Schuyler, Virginia, is a pleasant community of 400 residents nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in central Virginia, about 70 miles west of Richmond.
As Schuyler fell on hard times, though, the high school was converted to an elementary school and eventually, in 1991, it was closed and converted to a Community Center.
In fact, the area in Nelson County (where Schuyler is located) and adjoining Albermarle County contains the largest soapstone deposit in Virginia, and one of the largest in the U.S. With the increasing popularity of synthetic materials during the 1900s, though, the demand for soapstone tumbled along with, unfortunately, the fate of Schuyler.

 The REAL Walton's Mountain (Schuyler, Virginia)
Hamner wrote a book about his upbringing called Spencer's Mountain which, in 1963, was made into a movie starring Henry Fonda and Maureen O'Hara as Clay and Olivia Spencer, and James MacArthur as their son, Clay-Boy, the model for Earl Hamner himself.
I'd visited Schuyler once before, back in 1985, but there were no signs or interpretive facilities then so I didn't know which was the actual Walton (oops, I mean Hamner) house.
It's easy to get lost amidst Schuyler's winding, hilly roads but the museum is pretty easy to find, located a few yards from the Hamner house, which is owned by the youngest Hamner child (the "Jim-Bob" character in the show), and just down the road from what was Ike Godsey's store.
