Morning All, Thank you for the comments on the last writings. I enjoy hearing from you. I want you to see this place, through my eye and those of your ancestors. I know why they came here, I just don't understand why they left. Bryce brought up something, and I think he is right. You don't half to be a member of the Historical Society to be on "Bryce's List". The only reason I keep asking you to joint is to keep our membership up, and to have you feel a part of what is taking place here in Jessamine County. You are a part, a big part of what has happen here over the past few years. I am headed for that old Kentucky River this morning. We are going to take a little boat ride. It looks like rain here. I will tell you about it in the morning. Clyde Good afternoon, Clyde, I have so many signers for the list now, it is looking good. I wonder, do you really want to limit it to society members? Any member would profit by being able o contact any researcher. I hate to tell someone, "Sorry, you aren't included because you didn't join yet." And, by the way --- I know that my membership has expired! Will get that to you. What would probably benefit everyone the most is a copy of that first list I prepared. Then, if you want to limit access to the list to members, that would make sense. I could put an asterisk by their names to indicate being part of the society. What do you think? We advertised the research directory on the Jess-list, and I'm sure non-members have sent surnames. Hate to leave them off, but can see denying them access without membership.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ABB.2ACE/1147.1204.1 Message Board Post: Do you have any information on your Wilburn connection? My gr gr grandparents are J.P. Wilburn and E. Glover Wilburn b. appx. 1836, place unknown. My gr grandparents are Jessie Preston Wilburn and Ella E. Hutchison b. 1880 and 1885 in Missouri or Arkansas and Arkansas respectively. Married in 1904 in Tecumseh, Oklahoma. My grandparents are Mary Lucille Wilburn and Jesse Hudson Burdett b. 1907 and 1883 respectively. I am interested in my gr grandfather's other siblings. There were allegedly 11 children, 3 boys and 9 girls. the oldest child was Sarah Jane Wilburn and the youngest, my gr grandfather, Jessie Preston Wilburn.

By now you may have figured it out, that I am a bit partial to Jessamine County. The family and I have moved to other parts of the state, several times. But my thoughts have never left Jessamine County. I usually end up following my thoughts and come back to the only home that I have ever known. Unlike you I have very few family ties to Jessamine. My father's people were from down in Tennessee, mothers folks were from up in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. On some old rainy day when you have nothing to do, punch this into your computer "Good Bakers Bad Bakers" and tell me what you think. I wrote this for a Virginia paper several years ago. Back to Jessamine County, and why I keep returning here. Jessamine County, was and still is the most important county, in Kentucky. Now, I must admit, even coming from me, that's a pretty broad statement. But, I can prove it to you. This is one of the smallest of the 120 counties in Kentucky. But, I bet you, we have more Revolutionary Soldiers buried here, per square inch than any other county in the state. This just didn't happen, there is a reason for this. The first white men, that we know of, entered what is now Jessamine County in July of 1774. These men would become later become, known as the Fincastle Surveyors. They were seeking out the best lands in Kentucky. When their attention turned to the central part of Kentucky, Jessamine was one of their prime targets. But, this is still not the main reason Jessamine became the most important county in Kentucky. It all had to do with the economy. When the early settler first came into Kentucky, he found some of the richest soil that he had ever lain eyes upon. The centuries of untamed growth, especially the cane, had produced a rich, black soil, that would grow almost anything the climate would permit. Only one problem. How are you going to sell your neighbor corn, went he is growing corn? How are you going to sell your neighbor tobacco when he is growing tobacco? How are you going to sell him pigs, when he is raising pig , and so on? There was no market, and no cash flow. Put yourself in that settlers shoes for just a moment. Here you sit, on your own 1500, 2000 acres, and maybe more. You have all the potentials of becoming a rich men. But, all you can do is grow enough to feed your family and live stock. Kentucky found it's self land locked. There were only two ways into Kentucky, down the Ohio River, or over the Wilderness Road. To carry your products back east to market was almost out of the question. A few tried, but the profit was so little it was hardly worth the effort. This all changed a few years after Lexington was formed. This little city just seemed to spring up in the middle of the wilderness for really no reason, maybe it was because it was centrally located. It was not near large streams of water. A wagon road was cut through from Maysville, or Limestone as it was called then. This road became known as the Limestone Road, or sometime Smith's Road. The main cross street in Lexington is still called Limestone today.. A few small dry good stores began to spring up in Lexington. The settlers now could buy products from back east. But, here was that old problem again. Little or no money. No cash flow. But, everything was about to change. A man by the name of General James Wilkerson came to town and opened up a dry goods store. Now, I am not going to start talking about Gen. Wilkerson, for he is a history book in it's self. Gen. Wilkerson and Arron Burr, were great buddies, and both had severed in the War, under Gen. Benedict Arnold. If that tells you anything about the man's character. Some historians shade him in good light, other hate him. But, one thing can be said about this man, he changed the direction of Kentucky, more any one man in it's history, up to the present time. Gen. Wilkerson got this bright idea, to build flatboats, load them with salted pork, tobacco, whisky, and other Kentucky products. He was going to take in down the Kentucky River, to New Orleans to market. Some folks must have though him out of his mind. In April of 1787, Gen. Wilkerson and his little band of boatman, gathered on the banks of the Kentucky River, where Frankfort it located today, and started on their long journey. I am sure there were well wishers gathered on the river bank that day. And if the truth was know, I bet some were thinking "What Fools". There are a lot of things that can be said about Gen. Wilkerson, but, being a fool was not one of them. He pulled if off, and carried back to Kentucky with him a hold pocket full of Spanish silver and gold. This could easily be compared and referred to as America's first Gold Rush. Within two, or three years, warehouses, boatyards, houses and even small town sprang up along the river. Everyone wanted to get their products to the river edge. This also called for more road, more ferries. That old Kentucky River seemed to come alive almost over night. What had been an obstacle before, was now a life line to success. Gen. Wilkerson and others soon realized that they needed a more centrally located place to head their operation. The found it here at the mouth of Hickman Creek in what was to become Jessamine County. Money started to flow into the state, as if there was no tomorrow, and here was little old Jessamine, right here in the middle of it all . Some of the folks here, who had just been barely scratching out a living, were becoming very rich men. I will give you a good example. There was a fellow living here who called himself John 2/9 Scott. He was very proud of the fact that he had came to Kentucky with only two shilling, and nine pennies in this pocket, and that he had turned that into a large fortune. If you look in the Jessamine County Courthouse today, you will find all kinds of papers signed by Mr. Scott. He always signed them John 2/9 Scott. John 2/9, lived in a little stone house south of Nicholasville on US 27, the road was then called "The mouth of Hickman Trace". I was in his house several times before it was torn down. I got a picture of it. Will, that's my story. Did I prove my point? One other thing before I go. While I was writing this I happened to think of something. Many years ago when we first moved to Jessamine County, we lived near the mouth of Jessamine Creek. One day I was walking down on the river bank, near where some sort of a building once stood. I saw something glittering in the sun light and reached down and picked it up. It was part of a Spanish silver dollar. It was what is called a bit. To those who have never heard the term. In early Kentucky very few small coins were to be had. So if they needed change, you simply chopped the large coins into bits. Most of the time in six pieces. So, comes the term, Six-Bits. I often wonder if that little coin bit, had made it's way back to Kentucky from New Orleans. Some one asked me the other day about Martin's Boatyard. It was located at the mouth of Jessamine Creek, on that same river bank where I found that coin. Clyde ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Megee, Morris, Mauzy, Caldwell, Smith, Ochiltree, Sneed, Classification: Biography Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ABB.2ACE/3217 Message Board Post: History Of Rush County Indiana Brant & Fuller 1888 Surnames in this biography are: Megee, Morris, Mauzy, Caldwell, Smith, Ochiltree, Sneed, JOHN D. MEGEE, a prominent young lawyer of Rushville, was born in Rushville Township, this county, two and one-half miles southeast of Rushville, November 20, 1850. He was the son of William E. and Ellen E. (Morris) Megee, the former a native of Jessamine County, Ky., of Irish descent, and the latter a native of Woodford County, Ky., of Irish and German descent. He was reared upon the farm, and there continued until he reached the age of twenty, when he entered the Normal School of Lebanon, Ohio, and there remained one year, completing a business course, after which he acted as salesman in a dry goods store at Washington, Daviess Co., Ind., two years. He then acted as salesman in the dry goods store of J. H. Mauzy, of Rushville, nearly two years. He next engaged at mercantile pursuits with Z.E. Mauzy & W. A. Caldwell, and continued with them two years. He then sold his interest to his partners and entered upon the study of law with B. L. Smith. That was in January, 1! 876. He was soon afterward admitted to the Bar and formed a partnership in the practice of law with Mr. B. L. Smith. That partnership lasted two rears. He continued in the practice of law until the fall of 1881, when he became one of the incorporators of the Chaffee County Gold and Silver Mining Company, of Colorado, to which his entire attention was directed until 1885, during which time his place of residence was in Poncha Springs, Col. He was, during that time, the manager of the company. He still retains an interest in the stock, besides he has other mining interests in Saguache County, Col. In May, 1885, he returned to Rushville, where he has since been practicing law. He became the partner, in that profession, of T. M: Ochiltree, in the spring of 1887. The firm is now doing a good business; He was married March 3, 1874, to Susan 0. Sneed, daughter of William C. S. Sneed, formerly of this county. Mr. Megee is the father of three children, two of whom, both daughters, ar! e living. Mr. Megee is a member of the Christian Church. His wife is a member of the Presbyterian Church. The former is a member of the F. & A. M. Lodge, and a staunch Democrat in politics. During the memorable session of the Indiana Legislature in 1887 he acted as Minute Clerk of the Senate. He takes an active part in politics, and is recognized as an influential factor in the local politics of the country. I do not know anything more about this family, or any of the surnames mentioned. I have this in a book, and thought I would post for those that are researching these surnames. Enjoy! Lora, Jax, Fla

Morning All, I was watching the local news last evening. Ben Chandler, Kentucky's State Attorney has been hot and heavy on the condition of the old cemeteries in Kentucky, for about a year now.. Their is hardly a week that goes by that we don't see something about it in the news. Their is more then a good possibility a Bill will be introduced to the Kentucky Legislation this coming year, to protect cemeteries state wide. This is long time over due, and may be the most important thing we every participate in together. We will keep a eye on this, and when it's time, you can get out our pen and paper, and we will start in again. If you would like to drop Ben a line and tell him that you appreciate what he is doing.

Hello All, Again, I can only reinforce what Clyde tells you. The list will be a private thing ... I'll maintain and update it here where I live, and share it with the Historical Society. The only access to it will be through the Historical Society or through me. The only intention is so that anyone searching Fain, for instance, can get the names of any other folks researching Fain, along with how to contact them. Clyde, I have heard from a lot of folks -- not everyone by any means, but the numbers are growing. Since many of them are responding directly to me, you don't know yet just how many have signed on. You're right ... lots haven't, but lots have, too! So good to hear from so many of the fine folks I met at our first History Fest. Cousin Shelia may take on the whole Jones, Brown, Smith and Miller clans, and maybe even Nguyen and Wang if she doesn't behave -haha! (Shelia is a treasure, and I won't do that to her, not really. She's my favorite cousin sometimes, and we have both concocted elaborate e-mail scams to discombobulate one another - but those are stories for the next festival !!) Clyde, I'm ready for the old list at any time. Next week is my Fall break, so that will be a great time for me to organize the list. I can then update it at any time; so it will never be too late to join or add surnames. I heard Nicholasville on the news today, and am so sorry that it was about the accidental death of a young football player, in an accident during a parade. My heart; all our hearts, go out to all of you. The death of a young man or woman, so innocently, is no less heart-breaking than the deaths we all witnessed with such horror less than a month ago. Whatever the cause, whatever the motivation, whatever accident befalls our loved ones, each and every death is a personal, and community, and sometimes a national tragedy. I am sure that everyone on this list will join me in sending our prayers and thoughts of comfort and understanding to not only this young man's family, but to Nicholasville as a whole. I love this list. Related by blood or by heritage, I feel a closeness to each and every one of you. Bryce

Good afternoon! Clyde, I would have written privately, but I wanted to let others know how the directory is progressing. I have heard from 15 members about the families they are researching. That's not very many yet, but the mail comes in almost daily with one or two new folks wanting to be sure they are included. Shucks, I even heard from Shelia today. Never realized she was researching such a variety of families. Chan??? haha! : Bryce - I will give you a little time to get you list in order, before I : send you ours. Just let me know when. Send it whenever it is convenient --- it will all be one big list, so I may as well try to incorporate what we have with what is being shared now. I have my Fall break coming up in one more week, and would guess that is my best time to put together the basic list. Then I can just add and amend as we learn and hear from more folks. Do let me know what families you are researching. This will be a valuable tool for the Historical Society. Surnames are enough -- I really can't do much with charts or really detailed stuff. And please, do let me know how you wish to be contacted. By e-mail only, or by address and telephone. Cordially, Bryce Stevens [email protected]

Morning All, I am starting to get checks in from new members. Don't forget to let Bryce you are a member, and tell him what families you are working on. Bryce - I will give you a little time to get you list in order, before I send you ours. Just let me know when. The leaves are starting to turn here in Kentucky. I go down to the river every day, and walk out on the new overlook. It changes every day. In fact, it constantly changes. As the sun moves across the sky, the colors change.

Hi All, Irene will post her e-mail and mailing address as soon as she is set up and ready to receive photos. And yes, I think .jpg is the best format to send in. You may lose a little in detail, but you gain in disk space and speed over the phone lines. For those that don't have a scanner, or copies, the original will do. Just funning.
