Because most of these early pioneers were squatters, there is no record of their names. Historians claim that the first cabin in the county was built around 1745. As word of the county's warm <a href="/wiki/Spring_(hydrosphere)" class="mw-redirect" title="Spring (hydrosphere)">springs</a> spread eastward, <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Fairfax,_6th_Lord_Fairfax_of_Cameron" title="Thomas Fairfax, 6th Lord Fairfax of Cameron">Thomas Fairfax, 6th Lord Fairfax of Cameron</a> decided that the county needed to be surveyed.

He later returned to <b>Bath</b> (<a href="/wiki/Berkeley_Springs,_West_Virginia" title="Berkeley Springs, West Virginia">Berkeley Springs</a>) several times over the next several years with his half-brother, <a href="/wiki/Lawrence_Washington_(1718%E2%80%931752)" title="Lawrence Washington (1718–1752)">Lawrence</a>, who was ill and hoped that the warm springs might improve his health.

When he vacationed in the area in 1767, he noted how busy the town had become. Lord Fairfax had built a summer home there and a "private bath" making the area a popular destination for Virginia's social elite. As the town continued to grow, the Virginia General Assembly decided to formally recognize it. In October 1776, the town was officially named Bath, in honor of England's spa city called <a href="/wiki/Bath,_Somerset" title="Bath, Somerset">Bath</a>. The town's main north–south street was named Washington and the main east–west street was named Fairfax. Also, seven acres (28,000 m<sup>2</sup>) were set aside for "suffering humanity." When <a href="/wiki/West_Virginia" title="West Virginia">West Virginia</a> gained statehood, that area became West Virginia's first state park. </p><p>Bath's population increased during and immediately after the <a href="/wiki/American_Revolutionary_War" title="American Revolutionary War">American Revolutionary War</a> as wounded soldiers and others came to the area believing that the warm springs had medicinal qualities. Bath gained a reputation as a somewhat wild town where eating, drinking, dancing, and gambling on the daily horse races were the order of the day. </p><p>Bath later became known as Berkeley Springs, primarily because the town's post office took that name (combining Governor <a href="/wiki/Norborne_Berkeley,_4th_Baron_Botetourt" title="Norborne Berkeley, 4th Baron Botetourt">Norborne Berkeley</a>'s last name with the warm springs found there) to avoid confusion with another post office, located in southeastern Virginia, which was already called Bath. Because the mail was sent to and from Berkeley Springs, that name slowly took precedence. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="19th_century">19th century</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Morgan_County,_West_Virginia&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: 19th century"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Morgan County was one of fifty Virginia counties that were admitted to the Union as the state of West Virginia on June 20, 1863.
