Rooting out our history


2023-08-22 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Mike Watson.
Mike writes, "The Adair Genealogy & History Research Center is always "rooting out history" for our visitors. Local resources are abundant. Such as the seminal work of Mrs. Ruth Paull Burdette under title of Early Columbia: The Beginnings of a Small Kentucky Town; or The Jamestown Hill {or Boomer Heights} 1900 to 1910; or Looking Back compiled from the columns--in three volumes. Come by the Research Center to look over these and hundreds of other titles today."

Scammers trying to use Post Office

This is a current text message scam effort using very real copies of logo and information from the Post Office (USPS).

Just call the Post Office if you worry about a package. Scams are meant to cause you worry, concern, fear, etc. Don't respond to the text, don't fill in any information, don't click on a link, don't copy the link and paste it. A local Post Office representative said, "we never send a text message."
