Thoughts and prayers out to all of you on the list who are living in the bad weather areas. Hopefully you won't be without electricity for too long. I live in Alberta Canada and we've had our fair share of nasty weather, however things are forecasted to be fairly nice for the next week or so - around 32 degrees F. Colleen Lill

Yesterday I was in shorts. Today we finally looked like winter at 32 degrees in Atlanta tonight. Randy

Checking in............Well we are in the major area, fortunately we were on the eastern edge, we still have about 2 inches of ice on the trees. We did not lose our electric totally this time (2000 we lost it for 14 days), but unfortunately my daughter is out and may be a week before she has electric again, she does have gas so she is warm. My daughter-in-laws family lives 60 miles in McAlester which is not good, no electric and may be without for 2 to 3 weeks and my Uncle is in Muskogee in the country to the south and they are saying maybe 30 days. Electric poles snapping like toothpicks. They finally got a generator so they could run some small heaters. It is bad here, 92,000 people without electric just in Oklahoma. As Brec said, (and I too have family in the bolivar, springfield area) they are about as bad. McAlester looks like a war zone and so does Muskogee, reports from family that springfield is almost as bad. I think McAlester has about 4 to 6 inches of ice and more in places. Please say a prayer for all tonight, everywhere, ice area, train area, tornado areas, we have had it all int he states.

I'm east of Mina, about 2 hours or so east. The ice wasn't too bad here but yep, they're predicting some snow and sleet for tonight or tomorrow morning. And it's so cold!! Other than that, life is great. :) Denise in Gladewater Texas On 1/16/07, minamb@juno.com <minamb@juno.com> wrote: > > We have had a rather severe ice storm in the Fort Worth/Dallas area.

We have had a rather severe ice storm in the Fort Worth/Dallas area. The ice is gone, but the temperatures have been at or below freezing since Friday or Saturday. The storm has hit south and southeast Texas with a real vengeance, with major highways virtually shut down in Austin and San Antonio and freezing weather forecast for Houston within the next few hours. Light snow flurries are forecast for DFW, but no accumulations are predicted. The ice was and still is pretty treacherous in the areas north of the DFW are, and especially and you cross the border into Oklahoma. We are grateful it was no worse here--just trying to stay warm. Most of the electricity has been restored in this area, but that is not so to the north of us.

Kansas City got some inconvenient and troublesome sleet, freezing rain and snow but we basically missed the worst of the storm. The problem here and in the rest of Missouri is now the bitter cold. There is a strip of heavy ice running up the I44 corridor with towns like Springfield, Bolivar, and Weaubleau where much of my family ended up, are without power in the cold. Many areas in Missouri and Oklahoma will be without power for at least a week. Brec Morton

Once in a great while, I open the list for updates on people, and this is one of the times. We have a lot going on weather wise in the US and some disasters. 1 - If you are in the Shephardsville or Louisville area, please check in to let us know the situtation of you and area due to the train explosion with chemicals. From latest reports, 18 miles of I-65 are closed, the airport is impacted and everyone to stay inside. 2 - If you're in one of the states hit by the blizzards, let us know that you're ok - if you have power! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all! Sandi SCKY Links: http://www.public.asu.edu/~moore/Gorin.html GGP: http://ggpublishing.tripod.com/

I have several passages written in the French of the 1700's that I need translated. Are there any of you proficient in French who can help me? If yes, please contact me off-list. Thanks Charlie Hartley

As you know, I ended the series on the old Monroe Co newspapers when I ran out of papers. I found perhaps 50 more with dates ranging from 1946 to 1978. I don't want to bore you with more if there is no interest - these are much shorter. If you would like me to go back to this series when I complete the current Tuesday series, please write me privately. If you don't want to see any more - you can write me too!

Just a short note on Martin Luther King Day. For those of you on the KYBARREN list, you will note that I am interspersing death certificate information etc along with current and past obituaries. These you will find posted on the Barren Co board when archived under Deaths rather than obituaries. I am continuing to post about 10 obits or deaths a day to get all out there that I can, thanks for bearing with me! Also, if you want a fast way to see if your ancestor has been referred to on ANY rootsweb list (not board) for the past 10 yrs plus or minus, click on: http://archiver.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/search You can there do a search for the name in which you are interested. Space down a little, the first search box shown is for ancestry.com, go down a tad to the rootsweb search. Wishing you a good day - I know a lot of you are suffering in the cold or the rain ... stay safe today!

You know I don't advertise books per se but I just returned from the SCKY Cultural Center and picked up a brand new book from Metcalfe Co that you might be interested in. Metcalfe was formed in 1860 with the biggest chunk coming from Barren Co and is right in the middle of the censuses. The Metcalfe Co Clerk donated to the Metcalfe Historical Society the tax records of James H Read for 1865. The society printed the forms, they are the actual photostatic copies of the original forms and Mr. Read had a legible handwriting! The pages aren't numbered but I would estimate over 100 pages, It is in alphabetical order by the first initual of the last name as was usual. A sample entry would be: Branstetter, M A, 654 acres, no slaves, 225 something that looks like horses (appears that way on every page!) a category called Plates, total 879, 1 tithe, $5.90 (due). He has columns for 1860 thru 1864 also and sometimes this shows the taxes paid for those years. It's a dream because so many of these are Barren Co names. In the back it has a list of 'Claims Sent to Frankfort Allowed at the June Term of the Metcalfe Circuit Court." The book is soft glue bound, color cover and sells for $18.00 including shipping and handling. You can order from the Metcalfe Co Historical Society, P O Box 910, Edmonton KY 42129. I think it's worth the money! Sandi SCKY Links: http://www.public.asu.edu/~moore/Gorin.html GGP: http://ggpublishing.tripod.com/

This column is not dated but was in a Glasgow KY newspaper. At Cave City Sunday. General Lewis Saddle Will Be Shown At Commeration. "A relic of unusual historical and sentimental interest to be shown at the "Orphan Brigade" program Sunday at 2 pm at the Cave City Elementary school grounds, will be the actual saddle that General Joseph H. Lewis, distinguished commander of the famed brigade, used during his troop recruiting and training there. It was also the saddle on which he rode away to lead this brigade into combat in the southern states. "The saddle has been preserved by Mrs. W. P. Coffman [now deceased, Sandi], whose home is the last home occupied by General Lewis before he moved to Scott County in 1891, while serving as Chief Justice of the Kentucky Court of Appeals. Now more than one hundred years old, the saddle shows the wear and tear of hard service and time, but still remains intact, stout and staunch. The parking lot entrance is on the north side of the school front campus, on Highway 31-W. "Parents are urged to bring their children who havae a lively interest in the Civil War. Here they will see, for the first time, Glasgow's Confederate Color Guard, in authentic Confederate uniforms and antique muskets composed of Charles B. Honeycutt [Mayor, deceased], Carl Weis [deceased] and John Simmons. the Civil War guns will be fired in Miliary Salute. "Taps will be sounded on the antique bugle of Bandmaster Honeycutt. It is of the type first introduced by Napoleon and imported to the U. S. about 1815. A group from the Glasgow Scottie Band will play. "A hotbed of seething sentiments, Barren County witnessed far more of the earliest state Civil War activity than published histories have accorded it. It may yet be proved that the first state Federal fatality occurred at Park, where 10 members of the Orphan Brigade routed a whole Federal troop in a night skirmist staged in a ghostly graveyard. The L & N Railroad was captured, bridges and roads in the Green River Valley were reduced to rubble more than once, while the Confederates rushed to build their line of defence [sic] against invaders and most of them recruits from this area. "Both armies camped more than once on Barren's soil, with many skirmishes. Barren County Historical Society President Charles E Winninger [deceased, Wininger], and son, Ken, will be in charge of Civil War relics, including their 10 pound cannon ball, from the "Old Fort" at Glasgow, and a variety of "minnie balls" found on their own lands. Anyone having interesting Civil War relics is invited to join their display. "Entrance to the large parking lot at rear of the school is found on 31-W, with the Cave City Boy Scouts directing parking so that cars may enter and leave at will. Strains of "Lay Me Away With the Boys in Gray" and Confederate military marches will set the mood, as visitors approach the front campus, where a host will guide everyone to the registration table. There, green badges for Orphan Brigade relativers and white badges for relatives of Gen. Lewis family should be picked up for a special chair section. Older people may be seated in the other chair section. Many will prefer to stand and circulate with friends. "If you donj't know wheteher you had an "Orphan Brigade" relative, look for the published list elsewhere in this same issue. [I don't have]. If you don't find the one you're looking for here, maybe he was in "Morgan's Men", to whom a marker will be dedicated in the future. [there is a marker on the square in Glasgow]. "The program will include little known personal historic incidents. The actual proclamation issed by Gen. Lewis on opening his camp will be read. It briefly and bitterly explains the events that tore Kentucky's intended neutrality to shreds. The list of battle victories, which credits the Orphan Brigade with more victories than any one body of men in the entire Confederacy, will be given. Barren County's own "Old Reb", John A. Murray, who erected the Confederate monument in the courthouse yard, will be portrayed at a Confederate reunion, by reading a poem eulogizing the gallant veterans, which he read, that swung the gathered veterans to their feet in a resounding "Rebel Yell". The poem was written for the occasion by Mrs. Ida Goldsmith Morris, one of Glasgow's most talented and beloved woman of her era. "The program will be concluded by 3:00 p.m, so that those planning to attend the "Open House" of the First Federal Savings and Loans Association in Glasgow, will have plenty of time to do so. A warm welcome awaits the public at Cave City, extended by its Mayor I. F. Gardner. Dn't miss this Barren County episode in the nation's most famous "Lost Cause", that wouldn't get lost but persists in living on in the heart, past the milestones of more than a century."
