ky-footsteps Sunday, 30 November 1997 Volume 01 : Number 284 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Rita Stanifer Maggard Date: Sat, 29 Nov 1997 13:59:24 -0600 Subject: KY-F: ABSTRACTS: Mountain Echo, Jan 1896, Laurel Co ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ EXCERPTS from the MOUNTAIN ECHO January 1896 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reprinted with permission from the Laurel County Historical Society ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ JANUARY 3, 1896 FIRE- The residence of Mr. W.M. HOWARD, in the western suburbs of London, together with nearly all his household and kitchen furniture was destroyed by fire last Friday night. The loss, which amounted to about $1,200, was total, as there was no insurance. The house was the property of Mr.J.B. OAKLEY. Mr. Howard accounts for the fire in this way: The jams to the fireplace are very narrow, not over 12 or 13 inches and the wooden casing came within a few inches of the grate and frequently when he would have a very hot fire on, the casing would catch fire and as a consequence the casing was charred two or three inches back. On the night of the burning it caught fire and as usual Mr. Howard says he threw some water on it and thought he had extisguished it, but there was a closet just back of the jam, filled with clothing, etc, and Mr. Howard's supposition is that the fire had eaten its way back of the facing into the closet and was not extinguished by the water and when the fire was first -------- paper tornsheet of flames from floor to roof. JANUARY 10, 1896 DIED - Mr. Tilford YADON, son of Mr. J.L. Yadon, who has been so poorly for the past four or five months with ulceration of bowles died Wednesday night at twelve o'clock. The parents have our deepest sympathy in their hour of bereavement. Following marriage licenses have been issued since January 6th: Fred POTTER and Catherine CROWDER, John CASSDY and Belle WALDEN, Nute CREEK and Sarah HOSKINS. JANUARY 17, 1896 ACCIDENTS - Master Watt BRUNNER fell from a ladder and broke his arm. Alex Brunner's horse fell on his arm and broke his leg. Master HEISS fell with a stick of wood and broke a finger. C.B. HUBBARD while chopping, was feeling the edge of his axe, when an overhanging limb fell striking his thumb and severing that member from his hand. We are glad to report that all of the above are resting well at this writing. JANUARY 31, 1896 Uncle William HIBBARD, whose serious illness we reported last week died a few days ago. Mr. Napoleon JOHNSON is very low with Pneumonia. Dr. MASON, who is attending him, reports that he is getting along as well as could be expected. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------------------ From: THembrey@aol.com Date: Sun, 30 Nov 1997 15:42:51 -0500 (EST) Subject: KY-F: CEM: Wierd Cem - Bullitt Co The Wierd Cemetery Bullitt Co KY Knob Creek Road This cemetery is located off Knob Creek Road about 150 yards up Wierd Road. There is another cemetery (REDDON family) of new origin adjacent to the gravesites and separated by a fence. The Wierd cemetery is not kept up and, albeit the season, would have been very difficult to locate or see from the road even though the headstones are within reaching distance from a vehicle. The fence serves as a property boundary. The names in the Wierd cemetery do not match the cemetery name as the road name does. The only visible headstones are listed below with obvious other graves not marked. This cemetery appears on the USGS Topo map dtd. 1959. (Located and walked by me on 29 Nov 1997) #1- Henry Wire: b-Mar 1843 Mary C. (wife): b-Mar 30, 1846 #2- Lesty E. Samuels, b-Aug 11, 1867; d-Aug 14, 1901 wife of: R.W. Samuels #3- Lulla Wire, b-Feb 25, 1878; d-Jul 17, 1901 dau of: H.W. & M.C. Wire #4- Matilda Jane Wire, b-Oct 30, 1863; d-Nov 15, 1907 #5- Rebecca Miles, b-Mar 26, 1880; d-Mar 9, 1913 wife of: George Miles #6- William H. Whitesides, b-Feb 18, 1867; d-Oct 25, 1903 There is only one footstone with the initials "H W" on it which is not in the proximity of the Henry Wire grave. Due to the foilage growth and missing headstones, no other graves could be indentified. There appeared to be at least four more depicted by indentations in the ground in line with other graves. A WIRE decendant currently lives and owns the residence directly across the road but was not willing to talk after I rudely parked in his driveway without permission. Appologies were sincerely extended for the intrusion.
