KENTUCKY The Personnel of George Rogers Clark's Fort Jefferson and the Civilian Community of Clarksville [Kentucky], 1780- 1781 - Kenneth Charles Carstens. Until now, only 35 persons were thought to have occupied the frontier outpost known as Ft. Jefferson. Astonishingly, newly discovered records prove that more than 500 persons garrisoned, lived, farmed and died in that remote settlement. The book begins with a roster of names in the List of Companies. This is followed by the alphabetical List of Families. A chronological List of Deaths and a calendar of Fort Jefferson activities rounds out this section. The main portion of the book is made up of the Personnel section. It provides an alphabetical listing of every individual known either to have set foot in Fort Jefferson or to have had direct ties with the fort (such as sending items to the post or receiving correspondence from its inhabitants). The author is the director of the Murray State University anthropology program and the MSU Archaeology Service Center. The Fort Jefferson research project, of which this book is a part, involves the search for archaeological evidence of the fort as well as archival and historical studies directed toward reconstructing every facet of life associated with this late 18th-century Kentucky military and civilian frontier settlement. 1999, 188 pp., maps, fullname index, paper, $22.00 #C066 Pre-Publication Price: $20.00 till 31 May 1999 --- Heritage Books, Inc. 1540-E Pointer Ridge Place, Bowie, MD 20716 phone: 1-800-398-7709 fax: 1-800-276-1760 email: heritagebooks@pipeline.com Visit our online catalog at http://www.heritagebooks.com
