It was Siamese twin pig. The pigs were joined together at the shoulders with only one head, but two perfect bodies. It had eight legs, two of which were extended from its back. It had four ears, two of which were on top of its head. Both pigs were males. The mother is a Dorcus Jersey sow and farrowed ten pigs Sunday night and this Siamese twin was one of them. Mr. Martin found it Monday morning but it was dead when discovered. Mr. Matin is going to preserve the twin in alcohol.

Falmouth Outlook Fri. 29 Feb 1924 Vol. 17 No. 39 Pg. 3 Col. 3 Old Falmouth Newspaper H. R. Mullins, of Demossville, left at our office a copy of the old Falmouth Independent, dated April 10, 1876, which was mailed to his father, the late B. M. Mullins, who was a subscriber of the paper. The Independent was published by the late J. K. and C. B. Wandelohr, and the subscription price was $1.50 per year. We publish below a few items taken from this old newspaper of 48 years ago: Edgar Moore was county assessor of Pendleton Co. Robert McNay died April 7, 1876 at his home in Demossville. Morton Bros. were conducting a general cash store at Catawba. Capt. W. A. McGinety was conducting a saddle and harness shop. There were fifteen lawyers in Falmouth at that time 48 years ago. Capt. James Beggs was receiving tobacco at Catawba for I. N. Walker. Work had just commenced on the pike leading from Butler to Greenwood. A barber shop was the latest business institution to open in the village of Butler. William Rule, of Falmouth, was clerking for Cliff Rollins in his store in Morgan. Conrad Rausch was advertising his custom made fashionable kid-top boots for dudes of the day. L. A. Applegate conducted a drug store in this city at that time and sold goods at Cincinnati prices. Martin Finn, of Brooksville, is advertising a good livery stable in connection with the Finn Hotel. There were two candidates for Constable in the Falmouth Precinct, P. E. Morgan and George Oldham. The late Dr. J. H. Barbour was offering to sell 40 nice building lots in the Hauser Addition on easy terms. Walker Woodhead was offering for sale a few pure-bred Berkshire Pigs at a bargain, if sold before May 1876. G. C. Vanhook, of near Browningsville, left at the Independent office a fine sample of his White tobacco. The body of Joseph Friday, who drowned himself at Falmouth, was found in the log boom at Boston Station. C. F. Boseke conducted a furniture and coffin store. Coffins of all sizes and descriptions furnished on short notice. A. F. Aulick, of Bracken county, has sold his farm in Pendleton county to James E. Blades, formerly of Bracken Co. Joshua Woodhead, Sr., was conducting the Falmouth Woolen Mills. They were advertising roll-carding and spinning, also the Shaker blanket. J. M. Clutter raised a gourd four feet and ten inches in length, and the shape of a base ball club. He presented it to a friend in Columbus, OH. The home of Mrs. McKinney, widow of John L. McKinney, was burned soon after his death. The good neighbors extended a helping hand and built a comfortable dwelling for her. On Wednesday evening, 26 April, Capt. James M. Wilson and his lady and Capt. B. T. Riggs and lady will have been married ten years. A big tin wedding took place at the residence of Capt. Wilson. Henry Bullock presented the Independent office with a sample of his White Tobacco. Mr. Bullock at the time was the largest tobacco grower in Pendleton county. He had produced that year 40,000 pounds. The following lawyers had cards in this issue of the paper: A. R. Clarke, J. T. Simon, C. H. Lee, John H. Fryer, W. J. Perrin, P. F. Bonar and J. W. Edwards. All have passed over the river with the exception of Mr. Simon. Edgar Bronson, now editor of the El Reno (Okla.) American, was the printer's devil in the Independent office. Mr. Bronson is now one of the most able and best known editors and publisher west of the Mississippi River. F. M. Daugherty was conducting an undertaker's business at Aspen Grove. He advertises varnished walnut coffins trimmed and mounted with the latest style of handles ready for the grave, cheaper than ever before known in this section. J. A. Bohannan, cashier of the Falmouth Deposit Bank, notifies the public that he has placed on the bank safe a Yale Time Lock. which renders it entirely impossible for him or any one else to unlock the safe between the house of 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. Tim Riley, watchman at the local round-house was married to Miss Maggie Perkins, both of this city. They procured a license in Falmouth and went to Covington to be married by a priest who refused to perform the ceremony owing to the Lenten Season. However, they were married by Squire Perrin in that city. The Falmouth Deposit Bank, now the Pendleton Bank, was capitalized at $50,000. C. A. Wandelohr was president and J. E. Bohannan, Cashier. The Directors were: C. A. Wandelohr, J. J. Brann, H. Bulloci, C. A. Robbins, B. B. Mullins, George R. Rule and J. B. Applegate. Not a none of those gentlemen are living. The Independent says that circus day passed off quietly with the exception of a few altercations and numerous drunken men. It was a quiet day considering the quantity of whisky drank, and the wild character of specimens who were on a bender. Much credit was given to the town marshall and efficient police force for holding the town on its feet. Uncle John Robinson's great circus and menagerie was given a rousing welcome on April 17. Pendleton county fully sustained her past reputation as a circus town. The circus was good and the management took $1,000 out of the community. On Sunday evening about two-thirds of Falmouth's population assembled at the deport to witness the unloading of the circus.

The talk Thursday night was concerning Alaska, where she spent in all 11 years.

I am new to the list and am researching my family. The Kentucky connections are James Power and Margaret Walker. They were in Kentucky in the late 1700's and early 1800's. I believe Margaret Walker was born in Kentucky in 1785, and James Power born abt. 1776 but I do not know where. They married in Pendleton Kentucky in 1804. I do not know how many children they had - quite a few though. Andrew Power, one of there sons possibly born 1807 in Scott Co., Kentucky is my connection. Anyone researching this family please contact me. Katrina

Hello Katrina, If you ever find a RACHFORD / RATCHFORD / ROCHFORD connection with your POWER family I might be able to give you some info. In the late 1800s early 1900s my RATCHFORD family is said to have had a Jim POWER(S) as a cousin. They lived in Pendleton and Kenton Counties.

He was 85 years old. It is said that about 100 years ago, a colored man by the name of William Savage came to Bracken County from Virginia, and from appearances he had considerable white blood in his veins. He was of a thrifty disposition, accumulating land and other property almost from the time of his arrival. He became enamored with a white woman, whose parents bitterly opposed this union, but the woman seemed to prefer this pioneer Savage, and to make herself more like him, it is said that she refused to wear a bonnet or hat, going with her sleeves rolled up, with neck exposed, and it was not long until she had assumed the tinge of a mulatto, and in the course of time this woman and the Virginia colored man married, raising a family of eight or 9 children, five or six of whom were boys. All the boys prospered and accumulated property. One son, Henry, located in Ohio and is said to have accumulated much wealth. Another son, "Si", is said to have gotten rich also in this county, but he had the reputation of refusing to pay an debts unless forced by the courts to do so; and more than once his cattle has been sold at Brooksville to pay his taxes or other debts. With "Babe" it was different. He was strictly honest and honorable in his dealings, as far as we have been able to learn, and while he was willing to pay all his debts he also wanted the other fellow to pay him. >From the ownership of a small tract of land on Camp Creek, "Babe's" real estate possessions increased until he owned more than 400 acres of good Bracken county land, and when the sale of the W. H. Huffman farm was advertised a few years ago, "Babe" was on hand, and paid "the highest dollar" for it, and it was in this home that he died. There are many queer tales told of him. He seldom bought new clothing, but was very generous with patches in his old ones. He had a long, flowing white bead, which reached below his waist and it was his custom to roll his beard up under his chin and keep it in place with long, black thorns. It is related that "Babe" once visited a Maysville bank, dressed in his usual farm clothes, carrying over his shoulder a sack, with a jug in one end. Upon entering the financial institution, the colored man inquired, "Have you got a hatchet in here?" The banker, not knowing what to expect replied that there used to be one about the building used, to cut kindling. "Bring it out here," "Babe said, "and one of you bank fellows help me county this; I have been dropping money in this jug for ten, twenty of thirty years, just as I had it, and I want to see how much there is in it." and he struck the jug with the hatchet, and the eye of the bank employees bulged out as they saw the golden eagles and other money exposed to their gaze. "Babe's" pin money amounted to more than $6,000 and he left almost as abruptly as he came, saying "I guess it will be safe here." "Babe" Savage never married, and is the last member of his immediate family, but has a number of nephews and nieces. Three of the nephews, Jno., Albert and Tom Savage, live close to him and are all prosperous farmers, well thought of in the community where they live. Besides owning the 400 acres of land in Bracken county, "Babe" is said to own houses in Maysville and Germantown and a farm in Ohio near Rural, as well as having Government bonds and cash in the bank. His total estate is estimated to be worth from $40,000 to $45,000. The Savage family is noted for its thriftiness and hard work in the back end of the county, and the nephews and nieces want better things for their descendants in the way of schooling, etc, than they enjoyed, and only a short time ago offered to furnish a school building if the County Board of Education would hire a teacher for the instruction of the colored children in their community. The body of old "Babe" was laid to rest in the Savage cemetery on his land, surrounded by the scenes where he had spent almost a century.

Mr. Hosea is a son-in-law of Falmouth having married Miss Mary Jane Struve: The telephone properties of Elizabethtown and Grammer have been added to the holding of John Hosea, former manager of the Citizens' Telephone Company of this city. The properties were purchased rom the Citizens' company, but will not be turned over to him until the state public service commission has granted approval. Application for its authorization has been requested and is expected at any time. With the acquisition of these two properties, Mr. Hosea becomes the manager of a block including the Clifford exchange, purchased within the past two weeks, the Taylorsvile Telephone Company, and The Grammer and Elizabethtown. The Taylorsville exchange gives service to about 400 subscribers, and the other three have about 300 on their boards. No Service Interruption Under the new management service will be continued as in the past, with perhaps a little improvement. Frank D. Fee, manager of the Citizens' company, who acted in the negotiations, said this morning that the new deal was for the benefit of subscribers both in the exchanges to be transferred and those out of Columbus, as it would enable the Citizens' company to concentrate its energy upon maintaining its lines at the highest point of efficiency and would enable the Grammer and Elizabethtown exchanges to have the service of one man who can be always on the job. At present no equipment changes are contemplated for the new properties. The exchange at Elizabethtown recently installed a new switchboard, thus gaining considerably in the efficiency with which it can handle calls. Thruout the four lines that are not considered Hosea property both lines and exchanges are said to be in first class condition, and the only work will be to keep them so. In Experienced Hands It has been pointed out that such outlying lines are but tributaries to such a company as the Citizens' and are in better hands when one man can give his time to them. In passing into the hands of Mr. Hosea the properties come under the management of a thoroughly experienced telephone man. Mr. Hosea was for sixteen years manager of the local company, leaving last August after installing Mr. Fee in the office. Previous to that time he held positions with the New Telephone Company, of Indianapolis, now a part of the Bell system.

Hello everyone! I am looking for someone who might know of Lucy A. Courtney CORNELIUS. She was 78 yrs. when she died in 1942 in Pendleton. I have a copy of E.E.Barton's Papers that say she lived on a farm that used to belong to Philip RATCHFORD. "The house site was where Philip RATCHFORD had dancing picnics in a grove of trees." I'm not certain exactly which Philip Ratchford, Rachford, Rochford this is but I'm interested just in case he's family! Just thought I might ask to see if anyone knows where Lucy lived...maybe has a photo of the farm. Thank you for any help you might be able to offer! jamie in california
