Adair Soldier refused to apologize to the President

By Vonnie Kolbenschlag

Kentucky has produced few characters so remarkable as Adair County's Col. Frank Lane Wolford, leader of the U.S. 1st Kentucky Cavalry. Considered by many to be the outstanding Kentuckian in the Civil War; he is known for bravery, leadership, devotion to his men, and for his staunch stand for the principles in which he believed, as evidenced by Wolford's refusal to apologize to President Lincoln for a speech that was considered by his superiors to be insubordinate.

Adair County Soldier Wolford



2004-10-12 - Columbia, KY - Photo Courtesy of Vonnie Kolbenschlag. COL. FRANK LANE WOLFORD WAS A HIGH PROFILE CHARACTER in the Civil War era. Elected to state and federal government positions after the war, Wolford tried to bring healing to the nation by supporting amnesty for soldiers who fought for the Confederacy. He died at home on Greensburg Street in Columbia, and his funeral was held in the Adair County courthouse because the crowd was too large for any church. He is buried in the Columbia City Cemetery.
