As someone who only settled down in Kentucky a couple years ago (and love it), I really enjoyed this.

That is not a cornet it's a French horn. A cornet is a smaller sized trumpet I only one. Unless it's a smaller French horn and maybe the smaller instruments are called cornets. Idk. But I know for sure it's a French horn

Very cool why theres not more likes etc is a testament to our stupidity tk know our history not accepting whats told only.

Very good videos i shall subscribe and hope tk see many more. As a white Appalachian born in Whitesburg Ky 79 ive never seen any whatsoever discrimination but have heard of it from all older generations. The young someone my age i over heard one day really shocked me as i thought we knew no matter what..yet i held my breath and shamed him only by truths both natural as thers only one race ( Human ) yes they layed the lie so long ago and its easy tj understand if only in that way by education how people even begin to let thet seed of hatred sprout..i thank God i was never raised to even think on it except how can it be? So many answers needed far more than healing at this moment then healing can begin we'll never be able to overlook this nor should we no one alive had anything to do with starting or keeping it going ( Besides Political Parasite ) that discriminate against nearly everyone in APPALACHIA yet here we are a quarter way into this 21st century...thats a truthful glance into what we accept.

Hell yeah! Great coverage - look forward to more!!

Great history! Thank you for sharing. I was not aware of the first state Constitution being an experiement, nor was I aware the second state Constitution was signed in Danville. Is that right? I thought I read that in part of the section shown. @:53

"Monroe Moosnick"--quite frankly, that sounds like a name Al Capp made up for "L'il Abner!

Best of luck

It’s amusing that all of the idiots from Illinois put our guy on their lisence plates!

I missed this somehow and have so many questions about how to get past a kentucky ancestor brick wall

Censorship is effeminate

Broski, I would’ve had to drag lil Karen all through that lobby 😇 in the name of the Almighty! 🤭❤️‍🩹

Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤

Dumping trash all over, deficating on the sidewalk. They're putting them in SHARED LIVING. They can't do it.

Not much has changed. We've gone backwards. Sleeping, living together under bridges, on the sidewalks, strip malls, wandering the streets, hungry, dirty, having meltdowns with a payphone.

Thanks!

Excellent demonstration of the value of local archives! I'd like to know more about the education and skillsets most helpful to becoming a historian and archivist.

While at the U.S. Army Ordnance Center and School Aberdeen Proving Ground MD. I had access to the command building library. That's where I was able to read all five volumes of 'The Machine Gun' by Colonel Chinn. Also, the first volume had a dedication by and autograph of Colonel Chinn himself. I have never been so tempted to steal in my life.

My great grand uncle blazed the Cumberland Gap Trail.

I’m 11 months late, but I trickled in and thank you for waiting for me!

I briefly lived in Colonel Young's house while a student at Wilberforce University in the 1960s. I recall a second building, a small barn structure. I was told it was used to house formerly enslaved people traveling to Canada and was considered a stop on the Underground Railroad. I'm so thankful for the Young family.

I live here

Another informative podcast! I appreciate the questions and comments alike. You have drawn out information that is not well known. Thank you!

Great video! Thank you Claude Shannon

Excellent news 🎉

I'm so glad you've been recognized for all the work you've done for Frankfort, for Franklin County, and for Kentucky, Russ. You really deserve it. Congratulations!! 💜

Im stuck, my granny was born Bertha Mae Smith, married John King, divorced, married Ike young. I cant find any info on him. Nor who her momma Sarah Jane married (second marriage) just that her last name was Turner. She passed in Middlesboro ky

Oh, Russ, I so enjoyed watching this and hearing you tell your story and your hopes for the future of historical stories.

Id give an arm and a leg for one of those original printed shirts. If only they didn't destroy them.

Amazing!❤

Ya da ya da ya da…..perfect! I will pre-order the book.

But filters contain asbestos

Vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv.

Please

If I ever get sick and only have so long to live. I would love to do something that might be cursed or haunted to see if it would kill me. Like putting cloths in the dresser. Lol

Thanks for the enlightenment about Pine Mountain. I was reminded of our modern privileges with education!

Wow, one of the VERY BEST VIDEO! John P.

Great questions, informative answers, and exceptionally professionally done. Thank you!

Still a treasure for all Kentuckians! I'm proud to see how valued it still is.

Why is everyone on a history forum comment section someone famous descendant? As for me I am 7th great grandaughter of Thomas Jefferson and Jane Austen....Not😂😂😂

Also. It’s interesting that you noted the poem about sparing bones sounded like Literature…it’s the inscription on Shakespeare’s crypt cover in Stratford Upon Avon!

The first time I noticed that there were zinc tombstones was at Mount Holly in Little Rock when we had snow one the ground. The rest of the tombstones were so dark against the snow and the zinc ones took on a pale periwinkle color. Then I noticed how sharp the relief images were and had to do some research! They are still in good shape, as far as I know. There is one here in Jonesboro, Arkansas that must have been hit by a falling limb and it caused a bend in a corner junction, which is now rusting a bit. Overall, still in better shape than many of the stone headstones though.

The book is excellently written by a scholar who takes a largely misrepresented position and systematically (and cogently) dismantles the argument succinctly.

Excellently done. Great questions along with keen insights. As someone who hasn't studied 19th century history I feel much better informed about this season in Kentucky. Thank you!

1. Correct name is the Medal of Honor. Congress has nothing to do with it. Proof: If Congress had anything to do with awarding it, every Congressman would have one. 2. One is awarded or has received the Medal of Honor. One does not "win" it. It is not an Oscar or some sports trophy.
