The result was delete. Appears that an article on the Chelsea China Company could be feasible. If anyone needs Chelsea, West Virginia, for any reason as a reference let me know. Missvain ( talk) 00:03, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

This is kinda a cousin to Blackhorse, West Virginia ( AfD discussion) - both appear only on the 1904 topographic maps, and are gone afterwards. There's less coverage for this one than Blackhorse. This doesn't appear in the regional or county histories I linked in the Blackhorse AFD, and it's not in Kenny's book of WV place names. Searching is a bit difficult due to locations named Chelsea in London, NYC, and Massachusetts, but from what I've turned up, this seems to be related to the six kilns the Chelsea China Company constructed on the southern edge of New Cumberland, West Virginia in the 1880s. I didn't see anything calling this a community, so the current article content is both false in claiming that this is a community site and in using the present tense to refer to this thing, and the kilns don't seem to have significant coverage. Not convinced that this is a notable location. Hog Farm Talk 05:27, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

- Interestingly, the here.com data of Bing Maps under the pins retains both Chelsea and Clay, but does not have Blackhorse. Another difficulty in turning up stuff is the historic district of Sistersville, West Virginia that is also on the Ohio River and bounded by Chelsea Street. There is almost enough for an article on the subject that you have identified. Uncle G ( talk) 09:39, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
