Mike Watson: Early Roads and Bridges of Adair County, KY Columbia reputedly built around crossing of two bison trails. This narrative includes efforts by local entrepreneurs to make Columbia a transportation hub utilizing ferries and fords with turnpikes to Greensburg, to New Haven to Burkesville as well as to Monticello and Knoxville, TN. Click on headline for complete story By Mike Watson Adair County Historian A major trail from the Bluegrass into Tennessee passed through what is now Adair County. Early pioneers followed the well-defined natural roads made by the North American bison. Two bison trails crossed near the where the Town Branch crosses Jamestown Street in present day Columbia. The town reputedly sprang up where it did due to the close proximity to the trails. Where the trails crossed creeks and rivers, there were natural fords useful for pioneers. Fords across the Green and Cumberland Rivers and larger creeks like Russell and Crocus were used by the pioneers and their descendants and some are likely in use today. David Doak and Vandiver Banks ran ferries across the Green River at an early date.
