A propos de cet article

Early days in Graves County, Kentucky, are recalled in this new 45-page booklet titled: Graves County, Kentucky, USA . The spiral-bound booklet is a compilation of excerpts from two hard to find sources: the 1885 book, Kentucky: A History of the State by J.H. Battle, W.H. Perrin and G.C. Kniffin, and Kentucky, a Guide to the Bluegrass State, a 1939 product of the WPA Writer's Program. The tri-color front cover is printed on 80# card stock and has been protected with a vinyl sheet. The text is printed on opaque paper, with the print enlarged to fit the 8.5" x 11" paper and improve readability. Towns mentioned in the booklet include: Mayfield (county seat), Water Valley, Wingo, Lynnville, Farmington, Feliciana, Hickory Grove, Boydsville, Symsonia, Dukedom and Pryorsburgh. (Note: Present-day Graves County includes Mayfield, Water Valley, Wingo, Bell City, Boaz, Dogwood, Fancy Farm, Farmington, Folsomdale, Hickory, Kaler, Lowes, Lynnville, Melber, Pottsville, Sedalia, Symsonia, Viola and West Viola, according to the National Association of Counties website. This area was part of the Jackson Purchase. An excerpt from the 1885 book relating to this purchase is included in our Marshall County booklet.
