The town is centered on the former general store / post office on Teays Lane, which sits across from the site of the Teays, WV railroad depot which was demolished in the mid-1900s. Teays is a namesake and part of the census-designated place of Teays Valley, which was in turn named for Thomas Teays, a hunter and trapper who once spent a considerable amount of time in the vicinity.[1] Geologist William G. Tight (1865–1910) named the preglacial Teays River after Teays, which lies in the "riverless" Teays Valley that used to be the bottom of the river.[2] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite book|last=Kenny|first=Hamill|title=West Virginia Place Names: Their Origin and Meaning, Including the Nomenclature of the Streams and Mountains|url=https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015009099824;view=1up;seq=645;size=125|year=1945|publisher=The Place Name Press|location=Piedmont, WV|page=621}} {{Putnam County, West Virginia}}{{PutnamCountyWV-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|first=Walter|last=Sullivan|title=A Great Lost River Gets Its Due|work=The New York Times|publisher=The New York Times Company|date=1983-11-29|accessdate=2009-05-19|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1983/11/29/science/a-great-lost-river-gets-its-due.html?pagewanted=all|quote=[William G.
