Dual Credit has been around awhile - but getting new emphasis Dual credit has been offered for a long time at Adair County High School, but it's getting added emphasis with the efforts to trim the cost of higher education and with the push to get the Columbia/Adair County certified as a Work Ready Community. In fact, at least one student entered college with 50 hours - well into the student's sophomore year - and several have had 30 hours or more, almost a full year of college work, on graduation from Adair County High School, we've found out after inquiries of the school's guidance counselor, Ann Young. Ms. Young has suggested posting a list of the Dual Credits now being offered, and we'll post that as soon as we can on receipt. - EW 2013-08-29 10:34:38 | Comments | Printable version

Henry Watterson and his connection to Adair County... Famed editor, who built Courier-Journal into a journalistic powerhouse, had distinct ties to Adair County. By Mike Watson, Adair County Historian The journalistic world shall never forget the man who made the Courier-Journal the great newspaper it is, or was. "Marse" Henry Watterson was a name known in most circles one hundred, and more, years ago. He was a man to reckoned with. He was a powerhouse in political circles. He was editor of the Courier-Journal, one of the newspaper standards in the United States and in the South. Henry Watterson had a distinct link with Adair County and Columbia. He was a great-grandson of early Columbia resident, William Morrison. Morrison was a veteran of the Revolution and purchased a house, in 1817, on the corner of North High and Greensburg Streets--later the long-time location of Durham Wholesale Grocery, and across Greensburg Street from the Nathan Gaither House. This was a purchase of convenience since Mr. Morrison's daughter, was the wife of Dr. Gaither. One of William Morrison's daughters, Mary, born in 1784, married James Black. The Blacks had at least one child, a daughter named Talithacuni, called Talitha. Talitha Black married Henry McGee Watterson and became the parents of Henry Watterson. Like Samuel L. Clemens, Henry Watterson seems never to have mentioned any connection with Adair County, but we know the link is there...err here. - Mike Watson 2013-08-29 03:10:12 | Comments | Printable version
