Tina Reynolds: J.V. (Couver) Lapsley was right to preserve barn

'...our Lapsley Farm is older, has lasted longer, and is still going strong. Next I want to grow a little heather just for the idea of herbs from Stratford-on-Avon, England, where I have studied at the Shakespeare Institute, and just nostalgia for the British Isles.' - TINA REYNOLDS
JIM: The old Lapsley barn - I will let it stand

By Tine Reynolds

My dear grandfather, J. V. (Couver) Lapsley, was exactly right to express respect for all the work in the "old barn" of the Lapsley ancestors!

James Lapsley, Sr., founder of our old farm, had worked all over Garrard, Lincoln, Mercer and Fayette Cos. helping his sisters and brothers settle their land before 1795 and then tramping on down, with the family he finally brought from VA, to the Columbia area and settling his own farm and, of course, building that "old barn."

JIM: The old Lapsley barn - I will let it stand

Russell County, Kentucky history

By JIM

Transcribed verbatim from the February 5, 1908 Adair County News, page. one.

An Old Barn
On the Lapsley farm, six miles from Jamestown, there is a barn that was built in olden times. Mr. J.V. Lapsley who now lives on the farm says he has no idea how long it has been standing. It was built by his grandfather in the early settlement of this country. The boards appear to have been gotten out with a drawing knife, and the plank in the building was sawed with a whipsaw. The barn shows evidence of age, and two or three times Mr. Lapsley has resolved to raze it, but when the time would come to begin work his heart would fail him, saying it was built by my grandfather and I will let it stand.
(Criticism or complaints concerning the foregoing article should be directed to: John Ed Murrell, Editor de facto / Adair County News / South corner of the Square / Columbia, Ky.) - JIM

Thanks, Jim: And I wonder, do you or any other historian or possessor of all things Russell County, KY, know if this treasure is still standing? - CM
