  1. ^ This central-most cluster of counties in the state is defined by the West Virginia Department of Arts, Culture and History, adopting regions used by the West Virginia Department of Tourism. It is "historically perhaps the most isolated region in the state", with the smallest population. Its history includes diverse communities which were coal towns. "Throughout the Mountain Lakes, English, Irish, and German ancestry are common. To a lesser extent, Scots-Irish, Italian, Dutch, Scottish, and French roots are also present. Historically, Scots-Irish and German farm culture had a major impact in the area. These older ancestral roots were major influences in the early history of the state, however there are currently few distinct regional ethnic communities in the counties in the Mountain Lakes region. Lewis County was an important rural home for West Virginia Catholics, mostly of Irish and German ancestry, and there are prominent reminders of those communities in the area.""Mountain Lakes".
