Todd and Miss Nellie Lowery of Fredonia were out driving, when they met a well-known minister, who happened to have the requisite papers with him and, while the couple remained seated in their buggy, he pronounced the ceremony that made them husband and wife. The bride returned to her home and the groom to his and the marriage was kept a profound secret until Tuesday evening of this week, when it leaked out. The bride is the daughter of Mahlow Lowery, one of the leading farmers of the Fredonia Valley.

Padon died at his home in this city Tuesday evening after an illness of one week. Dr. Padon came to Blackwell from Kentucky in the fall of 1893. He was married at Princeton, Ky. in October 1894 to Miss Carrie Adamson and soon after returned to Blackwell with his bride. Dr. Padon was born in Livingston County, Ky., in 1862. Owing to the decision of the family to take his body to Ky., a public funeral here was out of the question, but friends turned out and escorted the remains to the 9:25 Frisco train and paid their tribute of respect to the dead friend. The body will be taken to Crider, Ky. for interment.

It's a cloudy day here in western Ky today and looks like rain, as if we need more after all the flooding of the past couple of weeks. I would like to welcome all of the new subscribers. I've had notes from several of you concerning the rules for posting information on this list. Your welcome letter told you that more than 1 county needed to be listed in the information before it should be posted here. It also said that I would consider amending that in the future to include information on just 1 county. With the recent discussions on the KYROOTS list I have decided to open the list for any and all source material, whether more than 1 county is mentioned or not. Please remember when you post your material that it will be placed in the KyGenWeb archives, so be careful you do not violate someones copyright. And remember... no file attachments. If you want to submit something that is too large a file for one post, if you will send it to me personally I'll try to break it down into smaller sections and post 1 a day, or will upload the whole file and then post here where it can be found. I've also been asked how to obtain archives of past digests. I honestly don't know right now but will find out. In the meantime, I have copies and will be glad to send them to anyone that wants them. Just send me an email and put KYF DIGESTS in the subject line. I have not updated the Welcome File to reflect the list changes yet but will do so this weekend. Thanks folks, and have a great day! nt ------------------------------ From: Charlene Stanley Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 12:32:06 -0500 Subject: KY-F: PERRY COUNTY: Dwarf Baptist Church Dear Footsteppers and others: Thanks first, to all of you for your support. The following is from a book entitled, "Perry County Kentucky- A History" by the Hazard Chapter of the D.A.R., PG 142. DWARF BAPTIST CHURCH REV. A.S. PETREY held a revival meeting at Dwarf in the summer of 1900. Evening services were held in the school house and Richard Gayheart arranged seats in his orchard where services were held in the morning while school was in session. As a result of this meeting the Dwarf Baptist Church was organized. Permission was granted by the First Baptist Church of Hazard, for REV. PETREY, their pastor, to fill the pulpit of Dwarf one Sunday each month. Some of the early members were MR. AND MRS. SILAS RITCHIE, ELBERT OWENS, RACHEL OWENS BRASHEAR, DR. S.M. RITCHIE, NANNIE RITCHIE, AND FLORA OWENS. Two Ministers came out of this church, SILAS B. RITCHIE, who succeeded REV. A.S. PETREY, served as Pastor until his death and HENRY C. COMBS who later served the First Baptist Church of Hazard for 2 years. In 1923 or 1924 the Church building was destroyed by fire. Many of the members had moved away and there was no money to rebuild. The lot was deeded to Dwarf graded school with the privilege of worshipping in the new school building. In 1942 ROBERT AND SEBA SLOANE donated one-quarter acre of ground to the Dwarf Church and plans for building a new church were begun. The congregation moved to CHESTER GAYHEART'S store building where services were held until they moved into the new brick church on Highway 15.
