Postcard from the past: J.O. Russell Bungalow



2009-11-06 - Photo from Ann Curtis collection. Location uncertain

Letter from Ann Curtis:

Do you or any or your readers recognize this property? I found it while rummaging through some old photographs of my mother's.

It is captioned:
"Bungalow of J.O. Russell
on Russell Hill Poultry Farm
Columbia, Ky"
I think it looks a lot like the house at the top of Jamestown Hill that recently sold at auction (next door to the old Cy Barger home.) Or it also resembles the style of homes on Guardian Street, possibly one that has already been torn down.

It apparently belonged to Mr. J.O. Russell, the founder of Russell & Company in 1909 on the Square.

Thanks,

s/Ann Curtis

P.S. The handwritten note at the top refers to my Grandfather, Ben Heskamp, who apparently helped build this house.

Comment: Wally Burress' neat postcard find

About: Postcard scene from the past Meadow Hill Inn from postcard owned by Wally Burress

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

Great find by Mr. Burress. The thing of trying to date the picture might be referred to Maxine Walker or maybe even Larry Walker. I notice it is before the addition was put on the south end of the building. The color of the cars does not seem just right, color photography was not what it is today. I don't remember cars of that era being so colorful, is that my memory or were they not that coforful.

It is really neat that someone should find this on Ebay.

Good Luck Indians: ACHS Football

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

I just wanted to wish the Indians good luck in their playoff game tonight. The boys have showed great strength and determination this season as they have fought battles both on and off the field, with injuries and illness sidelining many of the players. This shows great leadership in the coaches, as well as the heart of the players to never give up.

Go Indians!!!!

Broom standing for hours makes believers of parents



2009-11-06 - Mark and Robyn Samuel Home - Photo by Robyn Samuel. "I saw your IMO broom standing alone," writes Robyn Samuell. "My children came home on Wednesday and told me about the brooms standing in the school. They were fascinated and to my disbelief they stood my broom up in the living room. That broom stood for several hours, never falling. I just wanted to share my pictures with you because I could not believe it and I figured no one else would either. The person sitting on the couch is my husband Mark. Thank you."
