Fire completely destroys Doug Keeton residence at Fairplay



2016-10-14 - 4330 Fairplay Road, Columbia, KY. - Photo by Ed Waggener .
The fire which was reported at noon, was still smouldering at 3:11pmCT, after the Adair County Fire Department had arrived, controlled the blaze, and left the scene. The pine trees still stand, as well as a sentry chimney, but that was all. The the burning rumble contained almost all of the personal possessions including his books - even his PhD manuscripts, of Doug Keaton, Energy Instructor at Lindsey Wilson College. The landmark structure on Scenic KY 704, was situated on the highest knoll on an idyllic 12 acre baby farm, once owned by Johnny Begley, then Gary Powell, before Professor Keaton bought it a few years ago. Keaton, his dog Van, neighbors Tim & Jonathan Nuszbaum, and fellow Lindsey Wilson instructor Cindy Clark were left to secure the few items left after the blaze. Prof. Keaton said that the college was providing temporary housing as he sorts out the situation. - ED WAGGENER
