What We Are
The Barbour Greys are based out of Philippi, West Virginia. We portray a militia company, The Barbour Greys, that was mustered in Philippi in early 1861. Later, the company became part of the 31st Virgina Regiment as Company H.
Although we are based in Philippi, we also have members from northern West Virginia and Pennsylvania and Virginia. We attend events all over the state of West Virginia and a a few events outside the state.
Who We Are
We are a family-oriented reenacting group that takes pride in our behavior both on and off the battlefield. We portray both soldiers and civilians in our camps and women are welcome to camp at nearly all of our events. Membership is open to men and their families.
