Terri Collins: Why I Will Return to Adair County, KY Terri Collins writes: "I recently came across something my father, Dave Rosenbaum, wrote a couple of years ago on the ColumbiaMagazine.com website. It was about how our ancestors settled, quite unintentionally, in Adair County, KY. (History: On Stanley Rosenbaum's birthday, the story of the family in Adair Co. -CM) The last line read:" Four generations later there are no remaining Rosenbaums in Adair.By Terri Collins I have not been back to Adair County, Kentucky for at least a year. Maybe longer, in fact. It's odd, this extended absence from Adair County, because it is something I could never have envisioned in my younger years. Growing up, my family regularly made the 2-hour pilgrimage from the big city of Frankfort to rural Adair County in the family car. These trips were always big events in my mind because not only would I get to see one set of grandparents, I would get to see both. This was because my mother's parents lived not more than a few miles down the road in Bakerton from my father's parents in Fairplay. Most kids I knew didn't have this kind of two-for-one bonus and had to see their grandparents in separate visits. It was different for me, though, and I was lucky that way.
