O. Murdock, of Washington, DC, from her ancestor, John M. Lea, a son-in-law of John Overton and were donated by her to the Tennessee Historical Society. The 1982 addition to the collection was given by Overton L. Murdock, of Bethesda, Maryland. The collection consists of 2.52 linear feet of shelf space and numbers approximately 1,025 items and three volumes. These papers are the property of the Tennessee Historical Society and are available on microfilm at the Joint Universities Library and the Manuscript Division of the Tennessee State Library and Archives. Single photocopies of documents may be made for individual or scholarly purposes.

The correspondence deals primarily with land cases of John Overton as lawyer and judge with some Tennessee politics intermingled.

    Notes on the Political Club of Danville and Its Members

    THE FILSON CLUB HISTORY QUARTERLY VOL. 35 LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY, OCTOBER• 1961 No. 4 NOTES ON THE POLITICAL CLUB OF DANVILLE AND ITS MEMBERS BY ANN PRICE (MRS. SYDNEY S.) COMBS Lexington, Kentucky A paper read before The Filson Club, June 6, 1960 Twelve years after the founding of Harrod's Station, the first per- manent English settlement in Kentucky, on the night of December 27, 1786, a small group of distinguished gentlemen met at the Dan- ville, Kentucky home of Samuel McDowell. He and Harry Innes, John Brown, Thomas Todd, Robert Craddock, Chris. Greenup, and John Belli "Resolved, that the persons now present do form them- selves into a society to be hereafter distinguished and known by the style and title of 'The Political Club,' to be governed by such laws and regulations as shall be hereafter agreed on" and to be "insti- tuted for the purpose of acquiring political knowledge."1 Such was the modest beginning of an unusually intriguing and ex- traordinary society! A political club composed of 25 to 30 men, meeting once a week to debate specified subjects. What is so unusual or fascinating about that? Schools, colleges, life in the great wide world, are full of myriad just such groups--investment clubs, debating clubs, clubs with a politi- cal connotation--we, today, are constantly hearing about them, going to them, reading about them. What sets this particular club apart, makes it worth investigating, and gives it an aura all its own? First of all, there is the work this club did. The importance of The Political Club of Danville lay in the training of its members for the role they played in the creation of the state of Kentucky.

    Southern Campaign American Revolution Pension Statements & Rosters Pension application of Abraham Scholl R9265 f47VA Transcribed by Will Graves 1/16/12 [Methodology: Spelling, punctuation and/or grammar have been corrected in some instances for ease of reading and to facilitate searches of the database. Where the meaning is not compromised by adhering to the spelling, punctuation or grammar, no change has been made. Corrections or additional notes have been inserted within brackets or footnotes. Blanks appearing in the transcripts reflect blanks in the original. A bracketed question mark indicates that the word or words preceding it represent(s) a guess by me. Only materials pertinent to the military service of the veteran and to contemporary events have been transcribed. Affidavits that provide additional information on these events are included and genealogical information is abstracted, while standard, 'boilerplate' affidavits and attestations related solely to the application, and later nineteenth and twentieth century research requests for information have been omitted. I use speech recognition software to make all my transcriptions. Such software misinterprets my southern accent with unfortunate regularity and my poor proofreading fails to catch all misinterpretations. Also, dates or numbers which the software treats as numerals rather than words are not corrected: for example, the software transcribes "the eighth of June one thousand eighty six" as "the 8th of June 1786." Please call errors or omissions to my attention.] The state

    bOVEKNOR EUWAKD T. BUEATHITT REDEDICATION OF JOHN BREATHITT MARKER SEPTEMBER 16, 1967 RUSSELLVILLE, KENTUCKY For Release at 10 a.m. I accepted with pleasure your Invitation to be here today for this part of Western Kentucky's observance of the Commonwealth's 175th anniversary. After all, I have a bit of kinship tie with the Kentucky ° statesman whose marker we rededlcate today. And by my Hopklnsvllle background, I have a geographic tie with this part of the state. Logan County Is celebrating its 175th anniversary, too. You Logan Countlans live In an area that became a county on September 1, 17tf2, just three months after the new Commonwealth of * Kentucky became a state. Most of you know that Logan County is the mother of some 20 counties. In fact, In the period of Kentucky statehood, Logan County then Included all of what Is now regarded as l^estern Kentucky except for the Jackson Purchase. And this county, as you also know, was named for General Benjamin Logan, who founded Logan's Station In 1775. He also was a member of the convention which wrote the first constitution for Kentucky and also a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1779. This Is another reason for the ceremonies here and at Fairview today -- honoring some of the most illustrious names In I- ^ -2- Kentucky's history -- and also serving as Western Kentucky's participa tion in the 175th Anniversary Year. The county seat of Logan County, when established, was known as Logan Court House. Logan County then Included all of the land bounded on the nortn by the Ohio River, on the south by the Tennessee River and west to ttte same river and east to Stanford in Central Kentucky.
