This was one of the last coal camps to be constructed. The Peerless Mine near Hookersville, Nicholas County, W.Va. was opened by the Raven Peerless Company in 1947. It was served by a spur of the Strouds Creek and Muddlety Railroad, and later the Baltimore & Ohio. 1953 is the last year in state mining records that Raven Peerless is listed as owner of the Raven mine.
