Re: Steve Harvey of Family Feud

Harvey was an infant when his family left Welch, so no one in Welch would especially recall him except any close family and friends.

Re: Steve Harvey of Family Feud

Richard may be right. My understanding was that Steve was a little older, but still preschool when his family left Welch. Steve Harvey does show interest in Welch and West Virginia. His photo is in the hall of famous West Virginians at the Pipestem Resort Lodge. Somewhere I saw a clip of a Family Feud episode where one of the families included a pastor who had recently taken a church mission team to Welch to help with local families in need. He brought it up because he had heard there that Welch was Steve Harvey's birthplace. Mr. Harvey responded affirmatively that Welch was indeed his original home, and told the pastor he would be interested in helping support that mission if they were to go to Welch again.
