Letter: Be loyal to your town and it will grow Wants six day a week shopping (bring back 'Blue Laws') and Columbia back to its Old Fashioned Roots Jeffery Bray writes: Walmart was a bad move years ago. It killed downtown shopping on the square. I think Columbia needs to go back to its old fashion roots. Monday through Saturday, everything needs to be closed on Sundays except hospital, nursing home police depts. It worked 40 years ago. Sunday is the Lord's day, and a day of rest, and I truly believe thats how God wants it. Example: look at Betty's parking lot Monday thru Saturday. She has loyal customers, because she closed on Sunday. --Jeffery Bray 2015-07-28 08:52:44 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Remembering Peggy Tarter: Despite clutter, she could find anything About: Peggy Ann Tarter, 78, Casey County, KY (1936-2015) By Frances Salyers, as related to Ed Waggener It was sad to learn of the passing of Peggy Tarter, proprietor of Tarter's Store at Dunnville. What a wonderful lady. Her store was cluttered and stacked so much that there would usually be just one pathway from the front to the back. If you were looking a a particular item, you almost always had to ask her for help - no way to find it on your own. But she, on the other hand, could find anything, whether you asked her for a deck of Rook Cards or a new wick for a kerosene lantern - she knew right where it was. She will be missed by all those of my time. - Frances Salyers - proprietor, D & F Grocery & Deli, 4731 Edmonton Road, Gradyville, KY. 2015-07-28 05:54:24 | Comments | Printable version

Mike Watson: Mr. Cullins discovered a highly useful citizen An interesting bit of history from Brush Creek area, Green County, KY from Mike Watson By Mike Watson, Adair County Historian A Prolific Family - Mr. J.C. Cullins, a well known stock man of the Smith's Grove neighborhood, has just returned from a business trip to Green County, this State. While absent, he spent one night with an old gentleman on Brush Creek and there learned from him an interesting piece of family history: The gentleman's name is James Bennett, and he has been married three times, has twenty-seven living children, sixty-five grandchildren, and one hundred and twenty-seven great grandchildren, and he himself is only sixty, while his present wife is about thirty-five years old. A short time since this clever old farmer and highly respected Green County citizen held a family reunion at his house, his family being so numerous as to fill both house and yard. Mr. Bennett would have been a highly useful citizen in the early settlement of this country. - Semi-Weekly South Kentuckian, Hopkinsville, KY, 6 July 1886, copied from Bowling Green Democrat. 2015-07-28 04:28:43 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Local History
