Peggy Roberts Hall, Taylor County, KY (1939-2017)

She professed faith in Christ and was a member of Campbellsville Baptist Church where she was a Sunday school teacher for the children who called her gran gran. She retired from Taylor County Bank after 29 years. Peggy was a gifted seamstress and baker. Many have enjoyed the delicious treats that came from her kitchen. As well as the warmth of her beautiful handmade quilt creations. Her richest gifts were her kindness and love that she gave to, not only her family and friends, but to everyone she met. It would be her wish that each and every one of us use this same kindness and love and pass it on. Peggy was a four year cheerleader for Taylor County High School. That is where she met her husband of nearly nearly 60 years, Buster Hall, who survives. She leaves four direct and five step living descendants.

'That magnificent voice' - G.W. Perryman, Russell Co, KY - IV

In this installment Part IV, "That magnificent voice:" The life and times of Rev. G.W. Perryman, late of Russell County, Kentucky" = Account of Rev. Perryman & daughter's trip to the World's Fair in a private rail car in 1903. A close call with a street car.

Next earlier installment: 'That magnificent voice' - G.W. Perryman, Russell Co, KY - III

Contributed by JIM

Toward the end of 1900, Rev. Perryman accepted a new pastorate and the family moved the breadth of Kentucky, from Middlesboro to Paducah. Hardly had they arrived until he became involved in civic matters, particularly the soliciting of funds for a library, mentioned previously in more detail, and in early 1902, he became co-editor (and not too long afterward, the sole editor) of The West Kentucky Herald, a weekly Baptist newspaper.

To mark the one-year anniversary of Rev. Perryman's arrival, the Paducah Register ran a most complimentary piece about him, one that the Adair County News republished in its New Year's Day edition, 1902. The article noted there had been about 100 additions to the church member and that Sunday school attendance had nearly doubled. The paper referred to him as "very progressive" and "of much public spirit." The piece went on to proclaim,

Guy Babin: Spring on Cool Springs Creek, a time turkey love

Love among the Cow Pies. The Spring time urge to mate, inspires memories of the mating game, envy of his 'inept yet handsome hound dog,' told in the philosophical, humorous manner of another great thinker and author, Max Shulman, though there is happiness in the romance, far better than idealistic Shulman character who described a perfect love as "all dispair and no fulfillment."

Spring turkey season is here it seems, at least in the bottoms of Cool Springs Creek.

I can identify with the pictured toms in the accompanying picture, strutting around amongst registered angus "deposits" trying their best to impress the girls. Been there and done that--without the handsome plumage mind you...
