Revolutionary War Pensions gives (when available) the date and company of service, the applicant's age, dependent family members and, to prove indigence, a list of property often right down to forks and spoons with their value at the time. Lunacy Inquests gives the reason given by the jury for finding the person in question to be a lunatic or an idiot and follows that individual through the court system by way of inquests held periodically to note any change in circumstances or to pay the person's committee for the costs of care provided during the preceding year.

Dramatic tales of early exploration, abundant hunting, paradisiacal scenery and the constant terror of Indian attack abound. Of course, the most famous among the many adventurers that helped build Kentucky is Daniel Boone, and his stories figure prominently in this book. With carefully documented research, Mr. Cotterill explains more than just the chronology of events. He calls Kentucky \"The Debatable Land\" because it was not inhabited by any one Indian tribe and Virginia's claims to it were tenuous. England, during and after its war with the newly declared United States, encouraged the Northwest Indian tribes to make the raids on Kentucky settlements that culminated in the late 1780s with \"Year of Sorrows.\" Mr. Cotterill also provides excellent descriptions of the physical, intellectual and spiritual qualities that typified the first Kentuckians.

The economic vouchers and records of George Rogers Clark open a new window on the lives of the people who inhabited this fort. We can reconstruct their activities by noting what kind of cloth they required for their clothing; what provisions were required to outfit a military expedition; who got married and who was court-martialed. Genealogists can find the names of their ancestors among the lists in this volume and in the index. Re-enactors can formulate accurate portrayals based upon the descriptions of clothing and accoutrements. 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).

This book tells the story of the men and women who built and tended the mill, the various commercial enterprises carried on in its shadow, and the outside events that swirled around it. The work is divided into seven sections. Chapter 1 defines the physical setting on Boone Creek and introduces the Grimes family. Chapter 2 details the process leading up to the mill's construction. Chapter 3 describes the mill-related structures as they were built and as they appear today. Chapter 4 covers the early years of mill operation (1807-1837), Chapter 5 the middle years (1837-1887), Chapter 6 the late years (1887-1928), and Chapter 7 the Iroquois Hunt Club years (1928 to present).

Marriage bonds, in early Kentucky, were roughly equivalent to the modern-day marriage license. They constituted a legally binding contract of marriage, with at least two parties (usually the groom and a male relative of the bride) agreeing to pay a fine if the wedding did not take place. Marriage returns were sent to the county clerk after the wedding by the person who had performed the ceremony. They were entered into the marriage book at the county courthouse. In the early days, after Bath County was formed from Montgomery County in January 1811, there was no standard form for marriage bonds and parental consent; records preserved and microfilmed at the Kentucky State Archives are the individual slips of paper that families sent to the county clerk. The material in this work is alphabetically arranged; an index to buried names and an appendix of Bath County marriages, performed by Rev. J. P.

The Indians later entered this region and called it \"Kantuckee,\" meaning \"dark and bloody ground.\" They regarded with \"suspicious awe\" the land once occupied by a \"strange race which their ancestor had long ago exterminated.\" With the arrival of the White Man, the Red Man faced a similar fate. Although Daniel Boone first gazed across Kentucky in 1769, and several hunting and surveying expeditions crossed the area in subsequent years, the first permanent white settlement in Lexington was not made until 1775; the new community was named in honor of the Massachusetts town where the opening battle of the Revolutionary War had been fought just a few months earlier. This history begins with the ancient inhabitants of the area and continues down to the Civil War era. It covers all manner of topics such as Transylvania University, the siege of Bryant's Station, the battle of Blue Licks, the Lexington Racing Association, native and resident artists, the Lexington Light Infantry, the first session of the Legislature, the founding of The Observer and Reporter in 1807, and much more.

It is probable that few, if any, military engagements this small saw the beginning careers of so many future high-ranking officers. With a total of less than 500 men engaged, here three future generals and five future colonels began their rise to military glory. And while a small skirmish, we see here the same basic elements of warfare that have appeared since the beginning of recorded history. Initial developments leading to the cavalry engagement at Sacramento, Kentucky, on December 28, 1861, occurred during the previous month. In November 1861, Confederate Lieutenant Colonel Nathan Bedford Forrest's Tennessee cavalry battalion was assigned to Hopkinsville, Kentucky, at that time a major outpost on the Confederate defense line in Kentucky. On December 28, 1861, at the onset of what is now known as the Battle of Sacramento, Lt. Col. Forrest fired the first shot; and, with about 150 men, Forrest charged the Union advance. The author, who grew up in the shadow of the battleground, a two-year veteran of Vietnam, writer and university graduate in history, here opens up the facts of this skirmish. This well-documented account explores not just the battle but the men—and women—involved. Following an account of the prelude to the Battle of Sacramento and the battle itself; the Selected Personnel After-Action Activities section presents individual accounts of twenty-three participants. A section devoted to weapons includes: Colt Navy revolvers, the Enfield rifle musket, the Maynard carbine, Sharps carbine and rifle, and shotguns.

This book will be of great interest to the prosopographer, the genealogist, and the historian of Kentucky's earliest settlers.

Part I, the Calendar, is a list of abstracted information, including the names of enlisting soldiers and their officers; requests for food, articles of clothing, weapons and other supplies; articles requested as gifts for Indians; reports of military actions at other forts; summaries of letters between important people such as Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry; and much more. These abstracts give flesh and blood to the narrative, filling the scene with living men and women. Part II, \"the Quartermaster Books\" of John Dodge and Martin Carney, are reproduced line by line from the original books. These books contain 2,731 line item entries, identifying more than 280 persons and providing the following information: references to the movements of various military companies such as the Clarksville militia; a catalogue of arms, accoutrements, munitions, commodities and dry goods issued to officers, members of their companies, members of the militia and Indian allies; and an approximation of family size and activities pursued by men, women, and children while serving in a support capacity at Fort Jefferson and the civilian community of Clarksville.

It was also the only eighteenth-century military and civilian settlement in Kentucky constructed at the command of the Virginia government. First sanctioned by Patrick Henry, then reaffirmed by Thomas Jefferson in 1780, George Rogers Clark built Fort Jefferson as his economic hub and a military stronghold for the Illinois Battalion. Continual attacks by the Chickasaw Indians during the summer of 1780, led by a representative from the British southern Indian Department, foiled Clark's plans for Fort Jefferson and the community bearing his namesake. Although home to more than five hundred and fifty soldiers and civilians throughout its occupation, Fort Jefferson had to be abandoned only thirteen months and twenty days after it was settled. Kenneth Carstens has studied Fort Jefferson for twenty-four years and published books about Fort Jefferson and George Rogers Clark previously.
