Monaville, West Virginia

Monaville is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Logan County, West Virginia, United States.

The region was likely named for the Vance family who owned much of the land prior to the coal mining era.

The name is believed to have been changed to "Monaville" in honor of Mona Wilkinson, the daughter of a prominent coal mining official.

Island Creek Coal Company, based in Holden, operated the #11 and #12 mines in this region.

Monaville is the location of the Foster Armory, which houses a West Virginia National Guard unit.
