  • A State Divided: the Civil War in Kentucky Civil War in the Bluegrass
    $5 Fall 2013 KentuckyKentucky Humanities Council, Inc. humanities A State Divided: The Civil War in Kentucky Civil War in the Bluegrass e are 150 years removed from the Civil War, yet it still creates strong emotions in many Americans. The War Between the States split the nation deeply and divided Kentucky, pitting friend against friend, neighbor against neighbor, brother against brother, and even father against son. WKentucky’s future was forever changed by the events of the Civil War. In commemoration of the Civil War’s sesquicentennial, we are pleased to share with you a wide array of Kentucky perspectives and issues that developed throughout the war. What would Abraham Lincoln say about slavery and the Civil War if he were alive today? Stephen A. Brown conducts a “conversation” with President Lincoln through chronicled speeches and writings. His article is on page 7. Camp Nelson played a pivotal role in the destruction of slavery in the Commonwealth. W. Stephen McBride shares the history of Kentucky’s largest recruitment and training center for Ben Chandler African American soldiers and what remains of Camp Nelson today. Executive Director John Hunt Morgan is widely known for his Confederate Cavalry raids, overshadowing fellow Kentucky Humanities Council Kentuckian George Martin Jessee, known as “Naughty Jessee.” Mark V. Wetherington tells us about the lesser known Confederate Cavalryman on page 15. While Kentucky’s men were off fighting for both the Union and the Confederacy, their wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters were left to take care of the family and home. On page 18, Nancy Baird shares the stories of several Kentucky women who bravely kept the home fires burning during the Civil War.

    Record Group 22 Weldon Petz Abraham Lincoln Collection 1861-2004 8 storage boxes, 3 oversized boxes, 21 small boxes Plymouth Historical Museum, Plymouth, MI Finding Aid Written by Elizabeth Kelley Kerstens and Lena Packer, 27 January 2005 Updated by Jennifer Meekhof 21 Sept 2011 Creator: Dr. Weldon Petz Acquisition: The Weldon Petz Abraham Lincoln Collection records were deposited in the archives in 1999. Language: Materials in English Access: Records are open for research Use: Refer to Archives Reading Room Guidelines Notes: Citation Style: ―Weldon Petz Abraham Lincoln Collection,‖ Record Group 22, Archives, Plymouth Historical Museum Abstract Over a period of 70 years, Dr. Weldon Petz acquired more than 12,000 Lincoln artifacts, research papers, and other resource materials. This is the largest such collection in Michigan, second largest in the Midwest, and one of the largest and finest private collections of Lincolniana in the country. Among the objects are Lincoln‘s life mask and casts of his hands, a lock of his hair, photographs, and statuary. The archival collection consists of books, documents, journals, clip files, pamphlets, maps, and prints and posters. In his search for a permanent home for this collection, Dr. Petz chose the Plymouth Historical Museum because it promised to use the collection to create educational programs for students. The dimensions of the Petz Collection demanded the addition of a new wing to the Museum to exhibit it. After the Museum (which receives no governmental funding), purchased this prestigious collection, Margaret Dunning, an exemplary citizen and founder of the Museum, once again stepped forward and donated a million dollars to build it.

  • The Lincoln Issue Lincoln to the Fore, and a Fond Farewell
    $5.00 KentuckyKentucky Humanities Council Inc. humanities The Lincoln Issue Lincoln to the Fore, and a Fond Farewell Dear Friends, Welcome to a special issue honoring Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday on February 12, 2009. We hope you’ll enjoy this collection of insightful articles that look at the great president and his legacy from a variety of perspectives. John E. Kleber writes of Lincoln with a constant view to his lifelong ties to Kentucky. Kleber’s article—“Shall Any Claim Come Before the Mother?”—is a superb overview of Lincoln’s life and career. In “A Power Trio,” James C. Klot- ter focuses on Lincoln’s relationship with two Lexingtonians who played major roles in his life, Henry Clay and Mary Todd. Jonathan Jeffrey recounts the fascinating stories of the many Lincoln memorials that have arisen in Kentucky over the past hundred years—and are still rising—in “Now He Belongs to the Ages.” Slavery was the issue that dominated American politics during the Lincoln era. From Karolyn Smardz Frost we get “Flight to Freedom,” the amazing story of Thornton and Lucie Blackburn, whose bold flight from slavery in Kentucky ended in Canada.There, as Kentucky slave catchers tried to reach across the border to drag them back, the Blackburns made legal history.Their case turned Canada into the runaway slave’s promised land. And there’s more to discover, including a useful chronology of Lincoln’s life, the origins of Kentucky’s many Lincoln place names, and an essay on the conflicted legacy of Lincoln’s wartime rival, Jefferson Davis.
