Alfred Beckley May 26 1802 – May 26 1888 was a public official who founded Beckley West Virginia and a brigadier general in the Virginia militia during the American Civil War. He named the city of Beckley in honor of his father John James Beckleyab who was the first librarian of the United States Congress. Beckley was appointed to the United States Military Academy at West Point nominated for West Point by William Henry Harrison and President James Monroe; he entered on September 25 1819 and graduated on July 1 1823 ninth in a graduating class of 35. This class started with 86 cadets in 1819. He was in the army for 13 years serving the entire time as an artillery officer in Pennsylvania Florida Virginia and New York. In 1834–1835 after legal disputes Beckley received the title to 56679 acres his father had owned in western Virginia. In order to manage his inherited estates Beckley resigned his officer's commission on October 24 1836. He then settled in Fayette County now Raleigh County West Virginia which was then part of Virginia finding it a "perfect wilderness". His home named Wildwood was built in 1835–1836 expanded in 1874 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. Beckley returned to military service as a brigadier general in the Virginia Militia from 1849 to 1861; serving out of loyalty to his state even though he strongly opposed its secession from the Union. By summer 1861 Beckley was in charge of the 12th Brigade of Virginia militia against Union troops at Cotton Hill West Virginia in the Kanawha Valley. This region was largely pro-Union and his militia was not highly motivated so Wise condemned Beckley's unit in August 1861. Thus it only served until October 1861 contributing little to the Confederate cause. He officially resigned his commission on February 8 1862. Returning to Union-occupied Beckley he surrendered to the Union officer in charge Rutherford B. Hayes on March 16–17 1862. He was then arrested by the Union army on April 3 1862 and sent first to the Atheneum prison camp near Wheeling West Virginia and then to Camp Chase near Columbus Ohio as a prisoner of war. He claimed that he was really pro-Union but had simply been loyal to Virginia and had severed all ties with the Confederacy. He was released on June 18 1862 and arrived back in Raleigh County on June 26 1862. Cecil DeGrotte Eby Jr. was a retired professor of English He was born in Charles Town West Virginia.
