Archaeological Investigations at Terrill Cemetery (15Ma424), Madison County, Kentucky By Archaeological Investigations at Terrill Cemetery (15Ma424), Madison County, Kentucky By: Amy C. Favret With Contributions by Edward Henry C. Brain Mabelitini Christina A. Pappas Philip Mink and Eric J. Schlarb KAS Report No. 149 Report Prepared For: City of Richmond, Kentucky Public Works Division Contact: David Evans, City Manager Report Submitted By: Kentucky Archaeological Survey Jointly Administered By: Kentucky Heritage Council University of Kentucky, Department of Anthropology 1020A Export Street Lexington, KY 40506-9854 (859) 257 – 5173 2008 ________________________ David Pollack Principle Investigator Kentucky Office of State Archaeology Permit Number: ABSTRACT During March of 2007, archaeologists from the Kentucky Archaeological Survey excavated 18 burials at the Terrill Cemetery (15Ma424), which was located in Madison County to the south of Richmond, Kentucky. Analysis of archival records, artifacts (including garments and other personal items), engraved headstones, and coffin/casket forms and associated hardware suggests that this cemetery was used perhaps as early as 1804 or 1805, with the last interment occurring in 1876. Though the human skeletal remains were not well preserved, insights were gained into the organization and growth of this family cemetery, and changes in mortuary practices that reflect the Terrill family’s participation of the nineteenth century “Beautification of Death” movement. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project could not have been accomplished without the assistance of several people. Among them are the members of the field crew, including: Eric Schlarb, Edward Henry, Emily Swintosky, Carrell Rush, Meagan Jones, Melissa Ramsey, Ronny Hazlett, and Logan Kistler. Excavations were assisted by the City of Richmond, including James “Jimmy” Howard and David Evans, City Manager, and backhoe operators Sid Rawlins, Stacy Curtis, Tom Rice, and John Strong. C. Brian Mabelitini provided a historical background for the Terrill Cemetery, and processed and provided analysis of the non- textile artifacts. Christina Pappas provided analysis of textiles and leather remains. Dr. R. Berle Clay, Edward Henry, and Philip Mink conducted geophysical investigations, which included ground penetrating radar and magnetic survey prior to the excavation of the cemetery. Philip Mink and Edward Henry provided analysis of GPR data. Dr. Rinita Dalan (Minnesota State University-Moorehead) conducted down-hole susceptibility tests to determine if distinctive magnetic characteristics could be identified for unmarked grave shafts. Hayward Wilkirson prepared the line drawings and maps. Editorial assistance provided to the author by Eric Schlarb, Dr. David Pollack, and Dr. Kary Stackelbeck was greatly appreciated. Dr. George Crothers provided laboratory and storage space within the William S. Webb Museum of Anthropology. Ed Winkle and Barbara Gortman handled all of the administrative details for the project. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract............................................................................................................................... ii Acknowledgements............................................................................................................ iii List of Figures......................................................................................................................v List of Tables ..................................................................................................................... vi Introduction..........................................................................................................................1 Historical Background (C.

    Around Th e Capitol 1 State Capitol Kentucky became a state on June 1, 1792. The legislature in 1901 voted to spend $1 million for a new capitol building. The building was dedicated in 1910. The total cost of the building and furnishings was $1,820,000—a modest price, even in 1910. It is the state’s fourth capitol building. Frank Mills Andrews designed the Capitol and combined the form of Greek architecture with French styling. Andrews included French features on the inside of the Capitol with sculptured archways and cornices, hand-painted murals, stained-glass skylights, and dark mahogany wood. The Rotunda features statues of important Kentuckians, and the dome is patterned after the dome of Napoleon’s tomb in Paris. The elegant interior includes 36 large columns of Vermont granite. The Governor’s Offi ce and other executive branch offi ces are on the fi rst fl oor. The Supreme Court, the seat of the judicial branch of government, is on the second fl oor. The Senate and the House of Representatives meet in chambers at opposite ends of the third fl oor. 2 Governor’s Mansion The Governor’s Mansion is on the east lawn of the capitol grounds overlooking the Kentucky River. It was designed by Kentuckians CC and EA Weber of Fort Thomas. Nearly 80 feet wide and 200 feet long, the 25-room mansion is made of solid brick and limestone. Since 1914, Kentucky’s governors and their families have lived there. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 and is one of the few executive residences in the United States open for guided tours.
