That is great drawing. I will try to copy it. Where did you find it?

Always enjoyed going to this town and Blue Lick Park. We maybe able to go in late August. The Morgan Men Association which my husband belongs to is to have our reunion in Maysville which is close. Hope to see town and park if able to go. Would also go to Louisville to see our family. Hope and pray all works out for us.

Tried to copy and copied all wrong. Also printed 29 pages.

I missed this thread the first time around. Enjoyed the photos and the fact that Johnston and Nelson lived in the same home.

I like those o

Albert Sidney Johnston was born in Old Washington (Maysville), Kentucky on February 2, 1803. He served as a general in three different armies : the Texian Army, the United States of America Army, and the Confederate States of America Army. He saw extensive combat during his 34-year military career, fighting actions in the Black Hawk War, the Texas War of Independence, the Mexican–American War, the Utah War, and the American Civil War. He was killed during the Battle of Shiloh (Pittsburg Landing), Tennessee, on April 6, 1862.

I just returned home from a day trip to Old Washington, Kentucky. This town is just south of Maysville, Kentucky. I really enjoy these Ohio River cities in Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky. Thanks for your help with my tour @donna!!!
