Download or read book David Ballingall 1801 1862 written by Michael Tracy and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Licking River winds through the rolling hills of northern Nicholas County, Kentucky as it did when the area was first explored in 1773. This river, however, tells the story of a Scottish family who first settled in the area by the fall of 1796. David Ballingall (1758-1833) named the lands he first settled at as Ballingall's Mill and here in 1801 his eldest son, David, was born. David Ballingall spent his first four years here until October of 1805 when the growing family relocated to the Lower Blue Licks. The first settlement occurred around 1784 and the Blue Licks, which has been known as Salt Springs, Lower Blue Lick Springs and Blue Lick Springs and received its name from the blue-grey deposit left by mineral water between the original spring and the Licking River. By 1807 the family purchased 100 acres of land near Johnson's Fork and along the Licking River. David Ballingall did not follow his father in farming and milling but rather became the Postmaster of the Lower Blue Licks as early as 1828 although he might have been in the position much earlier than that. Ballingall would marry Mary Ann Paton in 1841 and they would have one child before Mary died leaving him a widower. In 1844 the residents of the Lower Blue Licks region elected him to the Kentucky State House of Representatives where he served for two terms in Frankfort. Ballingall, after serving in the House, came back home to the Lower Blue Licks region. With Kentucky declaring its neutrality at the beginning of the Civil War, the 59-year-old Ballingall decided to enlist in the Confederate Army in the fall of 1861. This decision would prove to be a fatal mistake in his life as he would not survive. This then is the narrative of the life and times of David Ballingall, the Kentucky gentleman of the Lower Blue Licks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kentucky Encyclopedia's 2,000-plus entries are the work of more than five hundred writers. Their subjects reflect all areas of the commonwealth and span the time from prehistoric settlement to today's headlines, recording Kentuckians' achievements in art, architecture, business, education, politics, religion, science, and sports. Biographical sketches portray all of Kentucky's governors and U.S. senators, as well as note congressmen and state and local politicians. Kentucky's impact on the national scene is registered in the lives of such figures as Carry Nation, Henry Clay, Louis Brandeis, and Alben Barkley. The commonwealth's high range from writers Harriette Arnow and Jesse Stuart, reformers Laura Clay and Mary Breckinridge, and civil rights leaders Whitney Young, Jr., and Georgia Powers, to sports figures Muhammad Ali and Adolph Rupp and entertainers Loretta Lynn, Merle Travis, and the Everly Brothers. Entries describe each county and county seat and each community with a population above 2,500. Broad overview articles examine such topics as agriculture, segregation, transportation, literature, and folklife. Frequently misunderstood aspects of Kentucky's history and culture are clarified and popular misconceptions corrected. The facts on such subjects as mint juleps, Fort Knox, Boone's coonskin cap, the Kentucky hot brown, and Morgan's Raiders will settle many an argument. For both the researcher and the more casual reader, this collection of facts and fancies about Kentucky and Kentuckians will be an invaluable resource.

This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the earliest roads in Kentucky led from Fort Boonesborough to a prime hunting location known as the Lower Blue Licks, or the Lower Salt Spring. Salt licks attracted buffalo in large numbers and were favored spots for hunters. Licks also provided a valuable source of salt that was critical for preserving meat. In 1775, Kentucky's settlement year, the hunters at Boonesborough discovered the Lower Blue Licks by following a series of connected buffalo traces. The path crossed the river near Boonesborough and went up Lower Howard's Creek in present-day Clark County. There it traverses the Lower Howard's Creek Nature & Heritage Preserve. This report describes the history and geography of the Salt Spring Trace, as well as other early roads in the Preserve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kentucky's landscape is punctuated by landmark structures that signpost bourbon's venerable story: distilleries long-standing, relict, razed, and brand new, the grand nineteenth-century homes of renowned distillers, villages and neighborhoods where distillery laborers lived, Whiskey Row storage warehouses, river landings and railroad yards, and factories where copper distilling vessels and charred white oak barrels are made. During the nineteenth century, distilling changed from an artisanal craft practiced by farmers and millers to a large-scale mechanized industry that practiced increasingly refined production techniques. Distillers often operated at comparatively remote sites—along the "backroads"—to take advantage of water sources or river or turnpike transport access. As time passed, steam power and mechanization freed the industry from its reliance on waterpower and permitted distillers to relocate to urban and rural rail-side sites. This shift also allowed distillers to perfect their production techniques, increase their capacity, and refine their marketing strategies. The historic progression produced the "fine" Kentucky bourbons that are available to present day consumers. Yet, distillers have not abandoned their cultural roots and traditions; their iconic products embrace the modern while also engaging their history and geography. Blending several topics—inventions and innovations in distilling and transport technologies, tax policy, geography, landscapes, and architecture—this primer and geographical guide presents an accessible and detailed history of the development of Kentucky's distilling industry and explains how the industry continues to thrive.
