  • Early Years 1
    Silver Hills Early Years Ray Ellis moved his family to Silver Hills in the early 20th century. He told has grandson, Charlie Ellis, a story about Indian lookouts camped at the point with a view of the Ohio River below. The Indians watched for settlers making their way down river on flat boats. The lookouts signaled a raiding party hiding by the river at the first bend when they spotted boats. Charlie, at a young, impressionable age, easily envisioned the Indians camped out at “Beeler’s Point” and the raiding party down by the river. Shawnee Lookout Painting by Mary Louise Holt There is evidence to suggest the story is true. Indian arrowheads were recovered at “Beeler’s Point” when William H. Beeler broke ground for his new house in the mid 1920’s. His son, William Russell Beeler and Russell’s wife, moved into his father’s home shortly after he died. Russell lived on the property until his death in 1980. His wife, Inez, remained in the house until her death in 1995. After Russell died, Inez gifted the arrowhead collection to Harry Carnighan, a life long resident of Silver Hills. There is another story about William and Charlotte Tuley sharing water from their well with a family of Indians living on the side of the Hill, not far from the Tuley Home. William W. Tuley and his wife, Charlotte built a house on the bluff overlooking the Ohio River in the late 1860’s. A summer kitchen was located behind the house. The cistern was just behind the summer kitchen.
