  • Profiles for Counties in the Licking
    Major Licking River Watershed County Profiles The Licking River Watershed or River Basin physically includes Magoffin*, Morgan*, Rowan*, Bath*, Fleming*, Bourbon, Harrison*, Nicholas*, Robertson*, the majority of Pendleton*, and parts of Menifee*, Montgomery, Clark, Elliott, Lewis, Mason, Bracken, Campbell*, Kenton*, Boone, and Grant counties.1 The Licking River Region report also includes Gallatin and a portion of Carroll counties. Hinkston and Stoner Creeks join in Bourbon County to form the South Fork of the Licking River which joins the main stem in Falmouth. The North Fork joins the Licking River near Sunrise, north of Claysville, in Harrison County, around its northern border with Pendleton County. The North Fork forms the border between Bracken and Robertson counties. The Licking River was officially discovered by Thomas Walker in June of 1750 who named it Frederick’s River. The Native Americans called it Nepernine and used the river to transport goods for trade and to travel to the central Kentucky grassland areas for hunting. Charles Kerr’s History of Kentucky (1922) says that the Licking means “land with springs and meadows.” An earlier name, Great Salt Lick Creek, referred to the salt licks along the river. The Licking River was first officially surveyed in 1835. The Licking River is noted to be 320 miles long. The Licking River was an important route of transportation for timber operations that floated logs down the river to Covington. Cave Run Lake, the only impoundment on the river, was formed in 1974. It has a summer pool of approximately 8,200 acres. Cave Run Lake is one of the most productive muskie fisheries in the Eastern United States.

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot.

This study attempted to analyze the potential energy of hydropower if it were implemented at the Triplett Creek Dam, the Cave Run Lake Dam, and at a total of various sites across the state of Kentucky. Methodology The researcher utilized different methods of analysis to address each of the four research questions. The first step in the assessment of the potential of a hydroelectric system was to determine the amount of obtainable power at all of the potential sites.

  • Scott County1 R'~I
    ~ ~ ( \AfA) GENERAL DESCRI FTION Scott County1 r'~I , General Charles Scott fro1.a whom this county received its name , a dis- / tinguished officer of the Revolution, was bollllt in Cumberland county, Vir­ gi nia. He served as a Corporal in a vol unteer company of militia in the memol'­ abl e campaign of 1755 , which termina.ted in Braddock' s defeat. Upon t he break­ i ng out of the Revolutionary war , he raised the first company of volunteers south of the James river that entered into actual services, and so distin- guished himself that when the county of Powhatan was formed in 1777, the county of Scott was nained in honor of him. Having been appointed by General Wash­ ington to the command of a regiment in the continental line he was with Gen­ eral Wayne at the storming of Stony Point. He was in Charleston when it sur­ rendered to Sir Henry Clinton. When marching out of the gate a British Officer spoke to him very abruptly; ordered him to marbh faster to give room for others Scott tutned to him, ripped out a tremendous oath, (one of his characteristi cs) and shamed the officer for having let so few men~tand out so long against so large an army . The of ficer molested him no further. After the was terminated he moved to Kentucky, and in 17S5 settled in Woodford county. He was with General St. Clair in his defeat on the fourth of November 1791, when there was about six hundred men killed in one hour .

  • Indian Old Fields, Home of the Shawnee
    Indian Old Fields, Home Of The Shawnee By Patsy Woodring - 2001 Indian Old Fields is the site of an Indian village and trading post in Clark County, Kentucky, called Eskippakithiki (Es-kip-pa-ki-thi-ki). The name is Shawnee for "Place of Blue Licks," referring to the salt deposits on Lulbegrud Creek. Mrs. Lucille Goff Clark, great-great-granddaughter of Thomas Goff, early settler in Clark County, says the settlement existed in the days between 1670 and 1754. The "thiki" part in the name meant "place," thus "blue-licks place." The word "Shawnee" in the Indian language meant "Southerner." Another writer, Bessie Taul Conkwright, explained that in 1724 a band of Shawnee Indians, who lived on the Savannah and Suanee [Suwannee?] rivers, had a quarrel with their neighbors and emigrated to Kentucky, settling near Howard's Creek. Mrs. Goff Clark wrote that the Shawnees were a branch of the Algonquin Indians of Wisconsin. This group had broken away from its tribe and settled permanently at Eskippakithiki. Within memory of the Indians themselves, not one tribe (except the fighting Shawnees) had dared to settle permanently in Kentucky, since these hunting grounds were considered to be the property of all tribes. However, according to archeological research, there have been many Indian settlements within the borders of Kentucky. John Goff reported that Indian Old Fields and Big Bone Lick were the only two Indian settlements in Kentucky. In 1922 Bessie Taul Conkwright stated that, in 1750, Indians dwelt in three places in the state. The Chickasaws were in the extreme west, on cliffs of the Mississippi River.
