KY Afield Outdoors: Blue Water Trails - South Fork, Licking River


Two floats on the South Fork of Licking River give a modern Kentuckian an understanding of why the pioneers braved such challenges to settle this pastoral and rich river valley.
This article is the thirtieth in the periodic Blue Water Trails series highlighting the floating, fishing and tourism opportunities on Kentucky's streams and rivers.

By Lee McLellan

FRANKFORT, Ky. - The pioneers settling along the verdant South Fork of Licking River in what is now Harrison County had a tenuous hold on their lands in 1780. The privations of carving crude civilization out of wilderness, the threat of attack by enraged Shawnee or their ilk, in addition to the whirlwind of the western theater of the Revolutionary War, all combined for a tough life.

A threat emanating from the north in the early summer of that year would eventually bring terror to this corner of the world. British Capt. Henry Bird and his Native American allies moved south from Detroit, crossed the Ohio River and moved into central Kentucky, via the Licking River system. A number of families, many of them Pennsylvania German, lived along the South Fork of Licking River in Ruddle's Station, near what is now Lair, Kentucky.

Kenny Absher: Wants a leader of vision leading Columbia

By Kenny Absher
Personal opinion of the commentator

Good for you. Dr. Ben Arnold. The city has gone so far down the tubes with its current status quo and the business owners have suffered long enough. I know I shop in Russell Springs and Campbellsville, but a leader with vision can bring prosperity back home.

Also as a county resident, taxation without representation is wrong; waiting like they did was wrong so no one else could run. They are just self-serving bureaucrats caring only for themselves. Kenny Absher, Cane Valley, KY

Thanks, Kenny Absher - Agree with you on needing leaders with vision; but not the attribution of selfish motives by those who voted for The Tax *(what most are calling a Payroll Tax or City Income Tax - the euphemistically self-style "Occupational License Tax").
