Mystery Wednesday - do you know the name?
2020-09-02 - Adair County, KY - Photo from Mike Watson
For many years this picture of a distinguished looking gentleman was in the archives of the Columbia Christian Church; however, it had no identification accompanying it and no one at the church has any idea who the person is.
It has come into my possession, mainly because someone knew of my interest in history and especially history of the Campbell/Stone Restoration Movement. For some time, I have been attempting to identify this person, but have not been successful. I have one source which I hope will enable me to do so and that is A History of the Churches in the Bluegrass, which has hundreds of pictures of church leaders covering the period of time from mid-1800s up to about 1930.
At the same time, I am wondering if publishing this picture locally might lead to someone who has an idea of whom this person might be. - Paul Patton Comments | Permalink

Looking southeast toward Fairplay

Vicky writes, "I’m on the highest point at the Hunter Place farm looking southeast toward Fairplay. Just finished mowing off the last bit of burrs that had cropped up. Can’t have those sticky things in the girls tails. This plat of land was given to my grandfather Josiah Hunter in the mid 1850s by the Governor of Kentucky in the form of a land grant of 330 acres then. Now only 60 acres." Comments | Permalink
