I was enjoying this post, however the ending is missing. I don’t know if it is my computer or not. Would you finish the post if possible if it is missing from your post?

Comment on The Little Colonel:Early 20th Century Children’s Literature by Mrs. Wayne Hunter

Thank you for this post! I am interested in purchasing a set of these books and thought that I remembered that you sold them through this society, but I can’t find them on the website. Do you sell them?

As a homeschooling Momma who was born in PeeWee Valley and raised in Oldham County, I think these books would be a great set to read with my children - they can learn about the area their Momma is from (very bonding) as well as post-Civil War life in a fun way! Since the majority of our children were not born in Kentucky and have spent little time there, I seek books that bring-to-life the unique character of Kentucky and Kentuckians. Jesse Stuart books are among our very favourites!

Thank you again for this post, I am very excited about the books!

On a different subject… Do you think that you’ll ever post from Louise Duncan’s writings on this blog? I would be very interested in reading what she has written.

You are so welcome, Ms. Theiss. Thank you for the blog and all of your work with the Oldham County Historical Society.

The Oldham County Historical Society means a good deal to me personally, as I grew-up in Louise Duncan’s farm house near Ballardsville. Does the museum have any collection or section in it about her?

Thank you for adding this blog! I have enjoyed the posts. I grew-up in Oldham County and now live in Alaska - it’s great to have a piece of home up here!

Comment on The Westport Lighthouse by Nancy Theiss

The unfortunate thing about the lighthouse is that it is in Indiana regarding restoration grants- the current owner has been really generous with the information and photos that he gave to the history center. The cost of restoration would be several hundred thousand dollars however the foundation would could easily be saved- of course, it floods regularly too.
