Looking for date of death for Velma Shaw Butler b.1899 in Edmondson Co. Father was Sol Martin Shaw b.1872 Thanks

Ted on our list wrote me of how this cholera tip hit home and it reminded me of something I'd like to share. Cholera was fast acting in most instances and the agony the people who had it endured was unbelievable. As an instance, here in Glasgow in 1854, when the cholera hit after a traveling circus infected the town; over 1/2 of the population died. There was no known cure really despite the various concoctions that people tried. Here it was suggested that pine tar be poured into a bucket of water, strirred and the water drunk. It didn't help. If one touched the body or clothes of an individual with cholera, they would contract the disease also. People dropped like flies. At first, the local coffin maker was called on to make coffins and somehow they got the body into a makeshift coffin, not touching the body. But as the epidemic spread, he couldn't keep up and furniture makers, neighbors and friends were called on to make coffins. They couldn't keep up. So finally it became necessary just to dig a grave where the people fell and taking a shovel or whatever was available, roll the body into the grave. The individual's clothes or whatever he had touched could not be handled by anyone else either, these were all burned. Here in Glasgow it is recorded that there were bodies buried all around the square. At this time Glasgow was smaller of course and there were private residences around the square, primarily on the top floor of the businesses. This is what caused the epidemic to last so long here, during the rainy season the rains were washing over the bodies of those who had been buried around the square and flowing down to the Big Spring that was the main watering source for the town. It was contaminating the water, people were drinking the water, bathing in it, letting their livestock wade in it ... and the epidemic went on for months until someone figured it out. I have spoken before on the list, way back when, that Glasgow was isolated during this epidemic. No other town would come in to help and the food supplies ran out. A farmer who had a grist mill offered grain and what foodstuffs as he could provide and his beloved slave drove his wagon right into town weekly and unloaded. The slave did not get the cholera; he was the town's angel believe me. It is noted that the names of many of those who died were never recorded; there were so many deaths, so fast, that the peoople were buried on the spot. In the vital statistics kept for that year, there are hundreds of deaths recorded due to the cholera or other similar diseases which looked like and were kin to cholera. But there are many that never were recorded. We had two doctors and they did all they could. With all that sadness ... have yourself a good weekend!!

Many times of tragedy have hit our country including Kentucky. Many of us have heard of the devastating cholera epidemic that visited KY in 1854 after the circus came to various towns. This disease which raged for many months, wrought destruction on not only Glasgow (who reportedly lost 50% of its population), but followed the circus from Tennessee, through Kentucky and into Missouri and Illinois. Due to the lack of knowledge of how to treat cholera at the time, and the confusion of why the epidemic lasted so long here, it was a fearful time. But, this was not the first time that cholera struck Kentucky and involved the south central portion of the state. In India, 1826, the epidemic began. By 1831, due to the early travels of citizens, it reached the British Isles and soon found its way across the Atlantic Ocean. Finding New York City as a lucrative home away from home, the city was soon to be experiencing many deaths from the deadly disease, Asiatic Cholera. By 1832, this dread disease was moving ever so slowly westward and Kentucky braced for the first report. It was said that Kentucky doctors were telling the people to have no fear since they believed the disease to be non-fatal if treated promptly. The physicians held to the theory of the day that cholera was caused by poisonous gases produced by rotting vegetable matter. So they told the people to just avoid these gases, stay out of the mid-day sun, don’t become chilled, don’t eat indigestible foods and avoid “ardent spirits.” Cholera was a painful way to die. It was spread through drinking water contaminated by fecal discharges of other cholera patients and caused copius and purging diarrhea, vomiting, muscle cramps and general prostration. The patient rapidly became dehydrated, weak, had below normal temperatures and many other horrid symptoms. But, the general population trusted their doctors and just avoided rotting vegetables! In October 1832, cholera reached Kentucky. It is reported to have come from a cook who worked between Cincinnati and Louisville. By early November 122 fatalities had been reported. Next came Henderson, Maysville, Frankfort, Bardstown and Lexington. 10% of the population of Henderson died. But then an early frost seemed to arrest the spread of cholera and everyone thought the worst was over. The people went about their lives and started the new year of 1833 with great optimism. But with the renewal of spring came the cholera. It began again in May of that year and panic ensued. People fled the town in great numbers and by mid June 60 people had died. 1 Wherever the people fled, they took the Asiatic Cholera with them. People along the Maysville-Lexington Road were infected, it followed them through Flemingsburg (1/6th died who remained). Elizaville was wiped off the map. Those in Shebourne fled to the mountains for safety; Blue Lick and Harrodsburg were hit hard. Lexington didn’t worry – it had been billed as the healthiest town in the state. But shortly after a torrential rain storm there, 50 people died in one day and 1/3rd of the population of 6,000 fled. And again, the trail of death followed them. Versailles and Nicholasville were spared. Frankfort had over 100 deaths in the country. Lancaster lost 116; Somerset 34; Danville, 55. Centre College in Danville closed and the students ran out in a panic. Richmond lost 17; Winchester, 25. And then there was Louisville. While the newspapers only reported 15-20 deaths, the citizenry reported many more. But, Louisville was not panicked. They felt they were safe because the cholera had not originated in their city and that offered them protection. 2 The epidemic was getting closer by the day to south central Kentucky. By Spring 1834, it had made its way to Bowling Green, KY and was reported that the town had expected to be spared. But, Bowling Green, Glasgow and Greensburg all suffered from the cholera. Russellville, in Logan County, took the brunt of the epidemic. In 1835, during a three-week period, 147 people died and most of the other residents fled. 3 Life changed drastically for the towns infected. It was noted that wills were drawn up, medications purchased, farewell letters written to loved ones. People who had been living a sinful life fled to the church for confessions and prayers. Towns were vacant, business was stopped, fields were left to grow with weeds. Steamboats were docked, stores, taverns and hotels were closed. Police stopped walking the beat, many physicians fled in terror and left their patients unattended. Those remaining were in a state of physical and emotional exhaustion. Newspapers were seldom printed except to list the latest fatalities. Coffin making was so in demand that many people were buried in trunks and boxes, or wrapped in the bed linens upon which they had died. Special carts made the rounds of the city streets to try to collect the coffins or enshrouded bodies. No clergy performed the funeral, and it was reported that at one town cemetery, the coffins, boxes or bodies were dropped inside the cemetery gate and just left for fear of contamination. Many in the south central KY area were just pushed into a shallow trench and the decaying flesh could be smelled for miles. 4 Since cholera lowered the heart beat and body temperature, it is feared that many people were buried prematurely. Theories as to the cause of cholera continued for many years. Some blamed it on God’s judgment. Others who died were accused of being wicked or of possessing a secret vice. Filth, poverty and vice were blamed in Louisville. Family traits and genes were blamed – the “lower life” were said to get cholera. Fresh fruits and vegetables were still suspect thus most people didn’t eat these during the epidemics. Treatments to the infected were pathetically ineffective. In the later Glasgow epidemic, drinking water with pine tar was the hopeful cure. When medicines were prescribed, the majority contained calomel, opium and performing a lancet. Calomel was a mercuric chloride compound used to treat other diseases. Opium was added to relieve muscle spasms and cramps and to calm the stomach. Lancet was what is also known as bleeding the victim that they believed would reduce the congestion in the blood vessels. Hot packs were used to retain the body heat since body temperatures dropped drastically. Some physicians prescribed the following: 1 ounce opium 1 oz. gum of myrrh 2 scruples of camphire [a scruple is approximately 20 grains] 60 gr of musk 2 scruples of flower of Benzoin 1 scruple of Incense of Irodine [iodine] 5 pints of French Brandy One teaspoon was to be taken 2-3 times a day as a preventative. This was followed by a ½ glass of wine every 15 minutes. 5 With that much alcohol, at least they didn’t suffer as much! The epidemic finally came to a close in the fall of 1835 when Kentucky experienced a cold fall. Cholera was never totally eradicated from the United States, and various cases were experienced yearly. But the Trail of Death finally was stopped. ______ 1 “History of Maysville and Mason County, Kentucky (Lexington, 1936), pp. 178-179, a quote from the Lexington Observer of June 1, 1833. 2 Lexington Observer, Juy 7, 183; William R.

Is anyone on the list doing research on Grace McMillen or John McMillen listed on the 1820 Monroe County census. We have just learned that our 4 great grandmother Bailey was named Grace McMillen. She married a William Bailey b. 1794 in probably Edgefield Co. S.C. or right after 1814 in Monroe Co. Kentucky. They were neighbors in Monroe County. Any information on these McMillens will be helpful. Thanks in Advance. Jeanette Bailey-Lopez jbailey148@comcast.net Families are like fudge......Mostly sweet but with a few nuts.
