~tory Herstory of Warren County; Some Thoughts on the Women of Early Warren County, Kentucky

Nancy D. Baird , Kentucky History Professor Kentucky Library and Museum Western Kentucky University

Bowling Green, Kentucky 42101-1092

One of my favorite quotes about history comes from Jane Austen's novel, Northanger Abbey, in which she states:

"History tells me nothing that does not either vex or worry me. The quarrels of popes and kings, with war and pestilence on every page. The men all so good for nothing, and hardly any women at all. It is very ti resome."

Here I intend to leave out most of the goodfor-nothmg men and give a brief account of women's activities in Bowling Green during the 191h and 20lh centuries .

We know little about the early explorers and settlers of this region of Kentucky. In 1776, twelve "Long Hunters" from Virginia carved their names on several beech trees along Barren River, just below where the railroad bridge now stands. Where were their womenfolk while these men tramped through the woods, defacing trees? They were undoubtedly on the other side of the moun tams, caring for the children, planting and harvesting the crops, chopping the wood for the fireplace, carrying water from the creek and doing all the other domestic chores delegated to the weaker sex.

One of the first women in this area was Daphne Tiller, who Hved with her husband in a cabin near Gasper River. In a letter to her mother, Daphne complained of the frontier's solitude; her nearest neighbor

was twelve miles away. However, she assured her parent that she and her husband would ea t well durmg the commg winter. They had raised a large crop of corn and pumpkin and had dried a year's supply of venison.

By the mid 1790s, enough settlers resided in the area to war rant the crea tion of Warren County, named for the physician-husband of Sophia Warren. H e had been a casualty at the Battle of Bunker HHI. At the first meeting of the county court, George Moore, the father of Mariah Moore gave two acres of land for the county' s public buildings; a 20 x 24 foot log cou rthouse and a 16 x 20 foot jai l. When the courthouse was completed nearly a year la ter, Mariah's fa ther donated another 30-40 acres surrounding the public bwldmgs for a town. Minutes for the meeting do not indicate who chose the name or why, only that the town "should be called Bowling Green."

Shortly thereafter, the town was surveyed and laid off into half-acre plots. The soutl,east half of Park Row was the first one so ld. Its price was $17. Town lots sold slowly but by 1812, wi th a population of less than 150, Bowling Green included a couple dozen homes, a brick courthouse, a clerk's office, a blacksmith's shop, two mercantile establishments, and two tiny hotels, both of which were opera ted by the wives of their owners.

THE LONGHUNTER, Volume XXIX, Issue 4, Fall 2006, Page 132.

Fron tier women were a hard working, ha rd living lot, for the luxu ri es an d niceties of the eastern seaboard were almost unknown. Estate inventories, filed u pon a man's dea th

(marri ed women d id not own property, not even the clothes they wore) indicate that ea rly households con tained few of the items modern women consider necessities, Most inventories included a few head of cattle, a handful of agri cu ltural tools, a couple of pots and pans, a mixed number of table utensils and a few beds an d chairs

(certainly not enough for every member of the family to have his own.) The mention of such niceties as curtains, bedspreads and rugs do not appear until after 1810.

By the 1820s, Bowling Green was a major stop for the stagecoach between Louisville and Nashville, a journey that took th ree days and cost $12, As area fa rms prospered, the need for markets gave rise to a pro fi table freigh ting business, taking area goods down river by flatboat, and after 1830, by steamboat.

While the menlolk pushed for economic development, women encouraged the estab lishment of civilizing influences, including churches and schools. [n 1835, Mary KendaU Jones and her husban d founded a Female Academy in the basement of the newly built Presbyterian Church. A graduate of Mt. Holyoke College, Mrs. Jones came to Kentucky to do wha t she called educational missionary work, and for 27 years she offered excellent academic training for those young ladies whose families could afford schooling.

In the early 1839, Elizabeth Cox married a U. S. Congressman, Joseph R.

Unde rwood, from Bowling Green. The couple moved to Bow ling Green and lived

on the outskirts of town, about where CoUege and Second Streets now intersect. When her husband was elected to the U. S. Senate and took office in 1847, Elizabeth Cox Underwood remained in Bowling Green and reported the local happenings to her absent spouse.

"May 9, 1850: I wa lked to town today and was surprised to see so much activity [along Frozen row]. I might have imagined myself in a ci ty. Circuit court was in session, and the rail ing

around the courthouse was occupied by horses tied to it An auction was in progress and I had to walk in the street. There were at least two dozen wagons and carts blocking the streets."

"June 13, 1850: The Mo rehead House was crowded wi th a group going to Mammoth Cave. What a pity tha t the [Morehead House1 tavern is not kept in proper manner. Marga ret Morehead ... runs the kitchen, and when she has money, she sets an excell ent table, but at other times there is not enough food to satisfy the hunger of the guests."

Elizabeth Underwood also set a good table, bu t only for her family and their guests, Certainly not the mythologica l southern lady of leisure, Underwood supervised the provision ing of the larder with enough food to last the winter and enough wood to stoke the fireplaces, rendered lard, made candles, oversaw the operation of the large Underwood farm du ring her husband ' s absences, enterta ined droves of fri ends, relatives, and their servants who came often and s tayed far too long, outfi tted and made preparations for a famil y of slaves who immigrated to Liberia, collected here husband's legal fees, supervised the family finances, p lanned a


fine new home (Ironwood which still stands as one of the county's finest homes), kept up with current events, and ad vised her husband on how to vote in Congress . Her duties were similar to those of other upper middle class wom en of the era.

Between 1860 and 1865, Bowling Green experienced a civ il war that pitted fathers aga inst sons and broke the hearts of mothers and sweethearts everywhere. Josie Underwood lived on the hilltop east of town and kept a diar y during those fri ghtening days.

"December 20, 1860: I argued for the maintaining of the Union . .. but Mr. Grafton beli tt led my views ... He makes me so angry when he trea ts me like a silly child."

"February 5, 1861: The policy of [Kentucky] is neutra lity but the people are not-goodness knows. Every man, woman, and child is either Rebel or Union."

Bowling Green learned of the beginning of the w ar when a young man rode around town shouting the news. Josie recorded the incident in her diary:

"Apri l 13, 1861: He galloped around shouting. 'Ft. Sumpter fired on. One woman hurt. Harriet Lane shot in the stern.' What was a woman doing there anyway."

The erstwhile messenger did not know the Harriet Lane was the USS Harriet Lane, docked in the Charleston harbor.

"May 5, 1861: It is too horrible to think of war devastati ng thi s beautiful land ."

In September 1861. Confederate troops arrived in town and for nearly five months 20,000 soldiers camped in south central Kentucky with Bowling Green serving as the army's headquarters. Josie

described the fortifi cations built by the Rebels on the hill behind Mary Baker's home, as well as on the summit of Main Street Hill and the Webb farm. Because the diarist was female, Josie's journal re lates the concerns of women an d civili ans.

"December 26,1861: I have been looking over old dresses and ripping them up to make over, as all sorts of goods are very high and scarce."

"January 2l] : r am very upset with Lucy, who fli rts with CSA officers while her brother fights in the Union arm y."

"March 16, 1862: There are 3 or 4 hospita ls already in town and all more than full. Ma keeps Aunt Emily busy making broths and other things for the poor sick fell ows. Every regiment marching through leaves its quote of sick men behind. The graveyard is full."

"April 1, 1862: The hospi tals are fu ll to overflowi ng. Last night Ma came home from one and told me I would have to give up my room as she had gotten permission to bring a poor boy home who would die if left in the crowded ward ."

Josie's diary also told of the Confederate evacuation in mid-February and the destruction of the rail road trestle footbridge across Barren River as well as the b urning of the north side of the Sqaure. O n the heels of the retreating Confederates arrived a sizeable Union a rmy. The Federa l forces repaired the railroad tres tle and erected a pontoon bridge over the Barren River. However, like the Confederates, they burned fences for firewood, cut town trees, trampled the fie lds, stole horses and livestock, commandeered buildings, and demanded food and fo rage. They also


overtaxed the city's roadways and water system creating major sanHation problems. The day the Confederates arrived, Josie had recorded in her diary, "The Philistines are upon us." By the end of the conflict, the term Philistine would apply equally to both the Confederate and Union armies.

Post-war Bowling Green buzzed with construction activ ities . Bridges were rebuil t, streets were repa ired, and a new courthouse was erected . On completion of the new structure, the old one in the center of town was demolished and the square became a park with wa lkways, shade trees, and a beautiful stone fowltain. Most town activities from the 1870s until after World War II would center around the Square.

Some of the post-war building involved the creation of Jonesville, founded by some of the area's fo rmer slaves. The several block long comm unity consisted of churches, a variety of shops, a one-room elementary school, and a cluster of residents. Jonesv ille fell victim to urban renewal in the 1960s.

Another post-war building project was the erection of a new train depot. Mary Ritter built a hotel across the street h·om the depot. Passenger detrained there for meals and lodging.

A number of other women opera ted busi.nesses. Carrie Burnam Taylor founded a dressmakillg establishment which she eventually expanded into a highly successful mail order business. At the turn of the century, Taylor employed more than 200 women; the largest employer of women in Kentucky. The dresses they made were exquisite and owning a Taylor-made garment was a sign of good taste and a hefty pocketbook.

By 1870, fashion had become fun again. A photograph of Virginia Younglove, a Bowling Green resident, showed her dressed to visit Mammoth Cave. A guide book published about 1875 suggested that women should wear brightly colored bloomers or Turkish dresses. Mrs. Younglove wore the relatively short skirt typical of the Turkish dress and carried a lantern. The guide also warned that in no case, except illness, should a lady take a gentleman'S arm, for it was fatiguing to both parties and exceedingly awkward in appearance.

Women also entertained and attended parties. They sipped sodas with friends a t the drugstore. They went on steamboat trips, on picnics, and to family gatherings. The Barren River offered fishing and boating. Beach wea r of the day invo lved so much material that ladies would have surely drowned had they fallen into the water. Women protected their complexions from the sun with large brimmed hats.

One of Bowling Green's best known turn-of-the-century women was Lida Calvert Obenchain. Unable to support her family on the paltry sum paid to her husband, president of a private school, Lida engaged in one of the few money-making ventures considered acceptab le for married women. She combined her talents as a writer and story-teller and wrote a series of short stories which were published in nationa l magazin es and then in book form. Writing under the pen name of Eliza Calvert Hall, she told of standing in front of Younglove' s drugstore, watching a circus parade around the square and of going to the COWlty fair. Fair week was a favori te event. The lad ies sat in the area behind the


circular judges stand to watch the races and cattle shows and then visited "Floral Hall" to see exhibits of need lework, preserves, pickles, and baked goods.

School teaching was also among those few occupations deemed acceptable for women; bu t only the unmarried ones. The 1886 teachers at the College Street School were frequently cautioned by the school superin tendent to be "more taken wi th gravity than lev ity" and to never smile in the classroom.

Shortly after Bowling Green's public schools began in 1881, a private high school and junior college opened for women. Built on the site currently occupied by Western Kentucky University's Cherry Hall, Potter College attracted young women from across the South.

In 1894, the Southern ormal School and Business College came to Bowling Green. This co-educational institution boasted a faculty of 12 and a student body of 700. Probably 25-30% of the students were women. Southern Normal School became Western Kentucky Normal School in 1910.

The girls at Potter College and Southern Normal School enjoyed sports. Potter College offered a variety of competi tive sports, incl uding tennis. The va rsity basketball team, organized in 1913, competed with groups representing va rious school clubs and with squads from Logan College in Russellville.

Turn-of-the-century ladies worked together to improve their communi ty. A top priority was the closing of the town's many saloons. Theirs was an uphill fight; Kentuckian s were hard drinkers. In 1907, the city's women unsuccessfull y ca mpaigned to outlaw the sale of liquor.

Fou r yea rs late r, they su cceeded briefly. This was an amazing fea t considering women could not vote. Their success was short-lived, liquor flowed freely again after the next election. When the Volstead Act ushered in national prohibition in 1920, one of the town's bar owners turned his establishment into an ice cream par lor and ca ptured the business of many of the women who had prev iously campaigned to close him down.

The years prior to Worl d War I witnessed some local interest in the suffrage movement. Lida Obench ain wrote satirica l articles for national magazines urging lawmakers to give women to right to vote. Emanie ahm, prize winning novelist, offered the view that women preferred to spend their time socializing w ith friends. She said that "Our ladies had rather have new bonnets than new ballots, bless their sweet hea rts." These bonnets could be purch ased at Nell O'Brian's Millinery Shop on Main Street, now the si te of the Capitol Arts Theatre.

Every thing took second place to the call to a rms in the spring of 1917; the War to Make the World Safe for Democracy; the War to End All Wars. Several local ladies joined the Red Cross and went to France with the American Expedi tionary. O thers, li ke Ora Porter, Warren Coun ty's first

registered nurse, played vita l roles at home. Nurse Porter was 6 feet tall and probably had Little back ta lk when she told a patien t to open his mouth for medicine or to assu me the prone position fo r an injection.

To finance war-related end eavors, the town's women held parades and bake sa les and opera ted a country sto re at the fa ir. Perhaps the most unique moneymaking scheme was to place wo rkers at the


warehouse during tobacco season and have them solicit a hand from every wagon load. This tobacco brought top prices and swelled Red Cross coffers. Women also served as Red Cross canteen gi rl s, providing cigarettes, coffee, an d sand wiches to dough boys traveling through town on the troop trains.

The advent of the automobile and a variety of labor saving devices introduced after 1920, freed women from many household drudgeries and gave them greater mobility and freedom . With their extra time, they formed literary clubs and study groups and enrolled in classes that increased their skills and broadened their horizons. Some attended the laboratory school operated by the State Board of Health run by Dr. Lillian South. Others volunteered for the Red Cross. Some

knitted sweaters and rolled band ages for the nation's fighting forces. Others organized fund raisers for the March of Dimes.

During the last four decades, women have entered professions previously reserved exclusively for men. To list the accomplishments of area women would required hours. Suffice to say, "We've done it all and we've done it well."

Have Bowling Green's "City Fathers" recognized the vi tal role played by the town's women throughout its h istory? I think they have, although probably without realizing it. In man y communities the cou rthouse stands in the cen ter of town, a symbol of justice and uni ty . But women have occupied the heart of Bowl ing Green for more than lOO yea rs.

Gleanings From Henrietta Benton Johnson's Scrapbook, Warren County, Kentucky, 1869-1922

Submitted by Sue Spurlock 537 L. C. Carr Road

Bowling Green, Kentucky 42101

This series of articles was started in The Longhunter, Volume XI, No. 4, almost twenty years ago and was never completed. Since so many of our members have joined since that time, the entire series is being re-printed and completed . Commentary provided by past and present members has also been included . Some information has also been added by the current editor. The orig inal series was types by Sue Spurlock for The Longhunter with the following commentary.

On occasion, we as researchers get lucky. Genealogical sources we thought to have vanished from the face of the earth appear as if by magic. Such was the case when Society member Patricia Reid located and copied an area scrapbook from the post-Civil War period .

As far as is presently known , few Bowling Green newspapers have survived from the post-Civil War period. For that reason The Longhunter staff was a bit ecstatic when the scrapbook of Mrs. Henrietta Benton Johnson {ca . 1846-1922), a Warren County resident, was brought to our attention and permission was granted by Mrs. Johnson's great great niece, Ora Calista Nicholls of this city , to share the scrapbook with our readers.

This large scrapbook conta ins over 450 newspaper cl ippings, the majority of which are obituaries or announcements of wedding nuptials. As was the case with the keeping of most early scrapbooks, Mrs . Johnson failed to note the date on her many clippings. However, the clippings appear to run the course of Mrs. Johnson's adulthood , 1869-1922 (some few being dated). Because the genealogical material contained in these clippings is not known to exist elsewhere, The Longhunter staff has decided to print the clippings in their entirety, continuing the series until all clippings are printed .

It appears that most of the cl ippings are from early Bowling Green papers. Some few were obviously mailed from other towns or cities to Mrs. Johnson. Mrs. Johnson lived for a time in Carmi, Illinois during the 1850s. News papers which were printed in Bowling Green during the post-Civi l War period were: Bowling Green Gazette (1853-60?) ; Green River Pantagraph (1872-78); Park City Daily News (first appeared in 1882 under the name of Bowling Green News) ; The Evening Journal (established 1899) and the Park City Daily Times (established 1882) later formed the Times Journal which ran 1882-1942. Also the Louisville Daily News was published in Bowling Green for a few months during the War years of 1861-62.

The Longhunter staff hopes the scrapbook will prove fruitfu l for you . If you have access to early newspaper clippings, please send us copies and we will include them in this series. For now we wish to say, "Thank you Pat l" "Thank you Ora Calista!" And our special appreciation goes to Henrietta Benton Johnson, whose scrapbook provides a surrogate for missing newspapers during an important period in our local history.


1. MANY OLD CITIZENS WHO HA VE DIED I RECE T YEARS. AMONG THE LIST WERE SOME OF W ARRE COU TY'S MOST PROMINENT MEN. THEY ARE SADLY MISSED.

Prominently displayed in P. J. Potter's Sons' bank and at Cooke & Hagerman 's are large photographs of the men who attended the "Old Folks' Reunion" in this city in 189l.

Among the list we re some of the oldest and best-known men in the city and county. There are seventy-eight faces in the picture. Of this number twenty-two have died since the reunion.

In the first row of the grou p were thirteen men, aJJ but two of whom have passed into the g reat beyond . Those who have died were well-known to aJJ . They were: John Atchison; Richard Potter; Squire O. C. Carson; Lewis Potter; Edward Hughes; Alex Graham; John C. Gerard; Thomas McNorton; Eugene Underwood; Henry Fox; "Uncle' Gloste r Willis, colored.

Mr. John C. Gera rd was the last to die. Most of those mentioned were at least eighty years of age.

Other prominent persons in the photograph who have died were: John Demuth; John Vogel; T. B. Gorin; A. D. Roberts; J. J. Smith; Joseph Younglove; John L. Row; H. C. Hines; Jack Palmer.

The other fifty-eight in the picture are sti ll in the land of the li ving. They are, however, younger men, some of them being mere boys.

The p ictures recaU many pleasant memories and the few in the city are 1 ighly prized. It is a pi ty there are not more of them. [The foUowing indi vid uals are buried in the

THE LONGHUNTER, Volu me XXIX, Issue 4, Fall 2006, Page 148.

Mr. Fox was born in the Mt. Olivet neighborhood, this county. He came to town when he was abo ut six years of age and since resided here.

3. DR. S. K. VANMETER DEAD. THE AGED PHYSICIAN PASSES A WAY AT HIS HOME NEAR THE CITY YESTERDAY MORNI G. Dr. S. K. Vanmeter, the talen ted physician, the perfect gentleman, died at his home near the city yesterday morning at half past 10 o'clock, of the second stroke of paralysis. He was about 69

years of age and had been an invalid for 20

years. He was born and raised in this city and had seen it grow from a little, insignificant country town, to the prosperous city it now is.

The funeral services were held this morning at tl,e residence at 10 o'clock by Rev. V. O. Gee, after which his mortal remains were deposited in the earth of which we are a part. The shock to his fr iends and relatives is almost unbearable; the loss to the community unreparable. Dr.

Vanmeter was an ideal man in every respect and when that deatllless soul was wafted back to the God who gave it, one of Warren county's best citizens had departed.

He leaves surviving hin1 an aged wife and three children, Charley and Will Vanmeter, of this city and Mrs. Eugene B. Miller, of Seattle, Washington. [The VanMeters were buried in Fairview Cemetery. Dr. S. K. "Dick" VanMeter, 26

Mr. Ary first began the business in 1858, in a log barn back of the Damron house. He started with a po ny for which he paid $30. Dr. Stewart left his horse and buggy with him and when the doctor's rig was not in use, Mr. Ary would let them out.

18. A VERY SAD DEATH. MRS. DR. L. P. McCUISTION PASSES A WAY THIS MORNlNG ATHER HOME IN PARlS, TEX. A telegram came here this morning from Paris, Tex., to Mr. T. S. McGinnis bearing the sad intelligence of the death of his niece, Mrs. Dr. L. P. McCuistion at her home in that city. The first information relatives in this city had of her illness was a dispatch yesterday, and this morning came the news of her death . We have not learned the cause of her death which occurred this mornmg at 4:20 o'clock.

The remains will be brought back to this city for bu rial, and will leave Paris thi s afternoon at 3:40, and will probably arrive here sometin1e tomorrow night. Later information will be g iven in tomorrow's issu e as to the funera l arrangements.

The deceased was fo rmerly Miss Ella Mooreman, of this city, and was married several yea rs ago to Dr. McCuistion and went to Paris to li ve. She was noted fo r her beauty and amiability and was decidedly popular with all who knew her. Since her residence in Paris she had, by her gentle manner and womanly graces, made friend s of all with whom she came in contact, and her death w ill be as deeply mourned there as here in her native city. She was a young woman, just in the bloom of a perfect womanhood and her untimely death is an exceptiona lly sad one. She leaves surviving her a lovin g husband but no children.

He grew gradually worse and passed quietly away this morning. The funeral services will be conducted tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock from the Christian church by the pastor, Rev. John Marcum, and the interment wil l occur in Fairview Cemetery.

Mr. Cox was born and reared in this county and would have been 73 years of age in October. He had always been one of the county's worthiest citizens, and was a man of fine mind and splendid judgment. He had served his county in the Sta te Legislature, and made an intelligent and influential member. In fact in all the relations of life he was a success and a man of marked ability . Quiet and unassuming in manners, dignified in bearing, he was kind ly in disposition and had the very highest respect and esteem of all who knew him. His son, the Hon. W. T. Cox, preceded him to the grave only a few short months ago and the stricken family have the sympathy of all in their double affliction.

Mr. Cox leaves surviving him an aged wife and several grown up children, Mrs. Dr. A. P. Murrey, of Green Hili; Mrs. Joe W. Gilbert, of Rich Pond; Mrs. Minnie

Cole, of Logan county; Charles Cox, of Goshen, and Miss Lula Cox, of this city. He had been for years one of the most active and zealous members of the Tenth street Christian church and died in the hope of an everlasting life in a better and brighter world.

She has been a student at the Normal school since September, and it was here the acquaintance was formed which resulted in their happy union.

27. A CABINET OF CURIOSITIES. IN THE POSSESSION OF DR. JOHN E. YOUNGLOVE-A RECORD OF THE PAST 48 YEARS. Nearly half a century ago this spring Dr. Jolm E. Younglove first set feet on the soi l on which the fair city of Bowling

THE LONG HUNTER, Volume XXIX, Issue 4, Fall 2006, Page 154.

Green now stands. He says it was the fairest day he ever experienced when he came ashore from the boa t which brought him hither. He has spent a long llle here and has succeeded in gathering a cabinet of curiosities which is well worth seeing. The "ear of the grape-vine telegraph" (almost everyone who remembers the war knows what this telegraph was, because it was about the only means of obtaining reliab le news from the fort) is on display in the window of the drug store opposite the Morehead house.

Dr. Younglove also possess a complete record of all events that have happened in the capital of Warren county for the past 48 years, for he has kept a reliable diary during all the time of his residence her. He can tell one, by referring to his minutes what the state of the weather on any given day of this long period . His remin iscences wiU be well worth reading should he ever conclude to place them in print.

28. Poor old Gloster! How many of us remember him away back in our

childhood. He was an old man when aU of us, now middle-aged, wore knee breeches. He has lived nearly a century, being 98 yea rs of age and bids fair to live out the whole 100 years. Everybody who has resided in Bowling Green since its earliest settlement knew Gloster Willis. He was sort of a factotum and made himself generally useful in all ways. He was town bell ringer and town crier for years-a sort of peripatetic advertising medium. If anybody lost a ch ild, or a horse, or a cow, or a pig, Willis was immediately summoned with his bell and made the welkin ring with the

announcement of the fact. But he has ou tlived his usefulness and, being unable to provide fo r himself, he was sent "over the hills to the poor-house," where he will probably spend his remaining years on earth. He does not like the new arrangement, however, and kicked vigorously when the point of his destination was reveaJed to him.

29. IN MEMORIAM. CAPT. JOH ROBINSON DIED MARCH 15TH 1892.

When the cold icy fingers of death snulfed out the lamp of Capt. John Robinson's life, the grave never opened to receive all that was mortal of a better and bigger hearted man than he. Hav ing known him for many years, and knowing him as few men are known, I fe lt a deep pang of sorrow, when the news of h is untimely death fell heavil y and suddenly upon my ears. He was a man among men and to know him was to honor and love him, for he was all that nature intended him to be-a kind and affectionate husband, a devoted father and a true friend. For many years a boatman, popu lar and successful, but in the declining days of his long and useful life, he was a worthy and respectfu l citizen and a man whom any community would be sad to lose. He bore his Lllness and long suffering with Christian fortitude and patience, and died as Christians die-in the hope of a better life to corne and a better world to Live in forever and forever. But he is no more of earth, gone, fo rever gone, to that bright and beautiful home not made with hands and where all is peace, love, joy and llle everlasting, and where s ickness, sorrow and death never come. To his beloved wife and children, I shed the warm

Book Review

William Michael Wilson, History of the Eleventh Kentucla) Vollinteer Infantry Regiment, Union Army, Bowling Green, Kentucky: Landmark Association, 2006.

The History of the Eleventh Kentucla) Volunteer Infantry Regiment is one of the best regimental histories of a Civil War unit that I have ever examined. The book covers the unit from both a historical and a more personal perspective. It covers the history of the unit from its formation through the various campaigns in which it served to the siege and fall of Atlanta. These sections are enhanced by many maps, diagrams, and photographs.

Various appendices cover the deaths of members of the unit in se rvice with descriptions of where and how the men died where avail.able. One appendix includes almost fifty photographs of many of the various sold iers and officers who were part of the wtit. Pensions record s and biographies are included as well as serv ice records for members of the regiment. Each section is footnoted.

I highly recommend this work to libraries and historical societies dealing with Civil War history as we ll as to family historians. Family historians can use the book to understand how their ancestors participated in the War and can use the collected information on the individuals to add to their soldier's history. This work is one which should be found in every public and personal lib rary interested in the area's history and people.

The book is 400 pages, hard-bound with photographs, endnotes, maps, and charts. It can be ordered from Landmark Association, P. O. Box 1812, Bowling Green, Kentucky, 42102-1812. Orders to be shipped first class should add $2.50 for shipping. A form for order ing the book can be printed by going to Mike Wilson's website at htto://www.burgoo.com or by using the form at the end of this issue.
