Family has some Lingan Wilson Selby memorabilia

Adair County's Lingan Wilson Selby Day, April 11

About: Gravestone of Lingan Wilson Selby

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

As you know, Ed, my brother and I are descendents of the Gilmers that buried Mr. Selby on their farm which we inherited. We were told many stories about him, and have pictures of the remains of his machine's stone shelter that was on the farm until it was buried in construction. He boarded with them and worked at his invention until his death.

s/Pat Bennett

Wonderful news about the stories, the photos, and the stone shelter. Any photos or news of this most memorable Adair Countian you might share would be greatly appreciated. I can't tell you how excited I was to see the gravestone the first time, remembering the accounts of Mr. Selby in Rachel Varble's historical novel about Jane Clemens, and also remembering stories told in Columbia Grade School and Adair County High School about the man. -EW

Click on headline for letter plus photo of Lingan Selby grave

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

I was reading the articles online and came across information about Lingan Wilson Selby. I was wondering if anyone had a photo of his headstone due to all the comments about what it should say on his stone. If so, how could we get a copy of the photo. We are descendants of Lingan and trying to learn more about him.

Thank you.

Farmers Market getting better each week

About: Farmers Market Tomatoes blueberries fresh bread + more

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

The farmers market is getting better every week. You need to get there early to get some of the stuff. The fresh wheat bread and the blueberries are great. I bought bread, potatoes, green beans, onions, Kale, cabbage, beets and one thing I can't remember the name of but it was good.

If you haven't tried out the Adair County Farmers Market you need to Friday. Shop-Cook-Eat and enjoy.
