Lost Breeds near Capitol Market
I lost my Breeds last Saturday at about 8:00 PM outside Capitol Market in Charleston, in the old part of town. The folder labeled 'Breeds' with notes on dog breeds and training was in my tote; it's not fancy, but it holds weeks of work. I remember chatting with a vendor about a brindle photo and turning back to grab my coat, only to find the bag lighter with the folder gone. The brick street lamplight felt heavy that night, and I worried about someone misplacing it as much as I did. If you found it, please help me get it back to its owner.
Lost pins near High Street, Morgantown
Hi, I am Ava Bennett. I misplaced a few delicate pins last Tuesday around 6:30 p.m. downtown Morgantown, near High Street by the Morgantown Civic Center. They are vintage family pins, one silver with a small green enamel leaf and another tiny pin with a compass design, pinned to my cardigan that day. I retraced the sidewalk along High Street toward the Monongahela Riverfront, but they are nowhere to be found. They are special to me, and I hope someone picked them up and held onto them until I could get back to collect them.
Found suits near Capitol Market, Charleston WV
While walking past Capitol Market in Charleston around 3:40 p.m. on Tuesday I spotted a black garment bag containing two men's suits and a blazer near a bench by the entrance. A name tag was attached but I cannot determine the owner from it, so I brought the bag inside for safekeeping. These outfits appear important for a job interview or a formal event, and I want them to find their person. This could be someone who needs to look sharp for an important moment and I hope it helps.
Lost CDs in old West Virginia
Last Saturday around 3:30 PM, I think I left my CDs somewhere near Capitol Market in Charleston, West Virginia. They aren’t just a stack of tunes to me; those discs carry memories from road trips with friends and the soundtracks of long drives. They were in a silver case with a dent in the corner, tucked beside a bench by the coffee cart. I feel a bit panicked about losing them, and I’d be grateful for any sighting near the market stalls or the plaza if someone picked them up.
Lost Hand Tools in West Virginia
Hey there, I was tackling a weekend project when the weather turned. Around 6:48 p.m. last Friday, I realized my hand tools were missing from the pegboard above my workbench in the shed behind my old log cabin near Hawks Nest State Park. The set includes a hammer, pliers, a rusty adjustable wrench, and a dented blue toolbox—tools I’ve used for years and hate to lose. I’m scrambling to finish a job and could really use them back where they belong, especially before another storm rolls in.
Lost sheet music near the old courthouse, West Virginia
I was practicing scales on Tuesday at 2:15 pm, tucked away on a bench outside the old courthouse on Main Street in West Virginia (old). I must have left the folder there after a quick phone call, and now those pages are gone. The binder held a handful of handwritten pieces from college, creased and stained from coffee, and I’m anxious about someone else finding them. If anyone spots them on that block, I’d be so grateful to have them back.
Lost sports equipment bag near WVU Rec Center
On Tuesday around 5:50 p.m., I realized my equipment bag was missing from the rack outside the West Virginia University Student Recreation Center by the basketball courts in Morgantown. The bag is a gray Nike duffel with a blue strap, stuffed with gear for soccer, basketball, and tennis—rugged cleats, a racket with a taped grip, and a well-worn pair of sneakers. The loss hits hard as practices and pickup games depend on that gear. I’m hoping whoever found it left it somewhere safe or turned it into the rec center lost-and-found so it can find its way back to me.
Lost postcards in Charleston, WV.
On Sunday at 3:45 PM, I realized my postcard collection had disappeared from my tote after I stopped by Capitol Market in Charleston to pick up stamps. The stack includes cards from family trips and a note from my grandfather. I probably dropped them along Capitol Street or along the riverfront walkway by the market. They carry memories of summers and small-town visits, and I’d love to have them back so the stories can be told again.
Lost driver's license in Charleston, old WV area
I lost my driver's license this morning around 9:40 a.m. while grabbing coffee on my way to class in Charleston. I must have left it on the bench outside the old State Capitol building near the fountain on Greenbrier Street. I walked the route from the café to the Capitol grounds and back, but it wasn’t there. The license is the standard West Virginia license, with my photo in a blue jacket; it’s a bit worn from daily use. This is stressful—it's my main ID for work and travel. If you found it, I’d be grateful to have it back and to avoid extra hassle.
Brass pocket compass on leather cord found downtown Charleston
I found a brass pocket compass with a worn brown leather cord and a tiny brass elephant charm attached. It's about the size of a matchbox, with a subtle map design on the back and a slightly tarnished patina. I found it this morning around 10:15am in the parking lot behind the Catamount Diner on Capitol Street in Charleston, WV. The back is engraved with the initials 'N.O.' and the elephant charm is a nice, easy identifying feature—please get in touch if this is yours so we can safely reunite it.
Silver hoop earrings with crescent moon charm
Found a pair of earrings this afternoon around 2:15pm near the steps of the old State Capitol building on Main Street in West Virginia (Old). They’re small silver-tone hoops, about 1 inch in diameter, with a delicate crescent moon charm dangling from one hoop. The backs are standard butterfly clasps, and one earring has a tiny engraving inside the crescent that looks like the letter 'M'. They’re a little dusty from the sidewalk but otherwise in good condition. I’d love to get them back to their owner—they might be sentimental or valuable to you.
Silver pocket watch found in West Virginia (old)
Found a silver pocket watch this afternoon around 2:45pm in West Virginia (old), Charleston, near the old state Capitol building on Capitol Street, in the little pedestrian plaza by the fountain. It's about 1.75 inches across, silver-tone with a slightly tarnished finish, and the face uses roman numerals with no brand visible. The back is engraved with the initials 'J.S.' and the chain is still attached but a bit tangled; the crystal has a small crack and the case has a tiny dent. It seems to tick when moved, but I can't tell how accurate it is. I’d really like to get it back to its owner or someone who recognizes it—the story behind it probably matters to someone.
Citizen Eco-Drive watch, black dial, 42mm, sentimental
I lost my Citizen Eco-Drive watch yesterday around 3pm near the Capitol Market in Charleston's old downtown, West Virginia. It’s a stainless steel 42mm case with a black sunburst dial, red accents on the hands, and a dark brown leather strap that’s worn from daily use. There are two small nicks on the bezel and a faint scratch near the clasp—hard to miss if you know watches. It really matters to me because it was a gift from my father and it keeps time even when other things fall apart. If anyone found it, I’d be really grateful to get it back.
Red Nike Pegasus sneakers, size 9, lost near Capitol Market
I lost my red Nike Pegasus sneakers, size US 9, yesterday around 3pm near the Capitol Market on Capitol Street in Charleston, West Virginia. They’re a breathable red and white pair with a black Nike swoosh, mesh upper, and a few scuffs on the toe from daily wear. The left shoe has a frayed white lace and a tiny blue stitch near the tongue that I can recognize. They were a gift from my mom, so they mean a lot to me and I really need them back. If you found them, please text or reply here — I’m hoping to reunite with them soon.
Blue US passport with gold seal, lost in Charleston
I lost my blue US passport yesterday around 3pm near Capitol Market on Quarrier Street in Charleston, WV. It's the standard passport book with the gold eagle seal, navy-blue cover, and a noticeable crease along the spine from travel this past year. The back cover has a tiny coffee stain and a small museum sticker on the inside. My initials 'P.P.' are faintly written on the inside page. It feels really important to get it back—it's essential for my upcoming trip and there's a lot of sentimental value tied to it.
