Trabue Russell House fall event features lunch and history

Mother Nature gave the supporters and volunteers of the Trabue Russell House in Columbia a perfect fall day for the annual chili-burgoo-and bean lunch on October 14, 2022.

This was held on the 201st anniversary of the home which was rescued and restored in the mid-1970s by the Adair Heritage Association and later given to the City of Columbia. For tours, contact the City at 270-384-2501.

For history of the builder Daniel Trabue, a book written by Vonnie Kolbenschlag is available at the Chamber of Commerce. Email coladair@duo-county.com .
