Description:Excerpt from Ohio Archaeological and Historical Publications, 1904, Vol. 13It should be noted that before the year 1774, the only per sons ih Kentucky were the early hunters and explorers. It is true that Boone, and a company of about forty persons, had attempted to reach the new country in the fall of 1773, but on the loth of October, they were attacked by Indians, and six of the white men killed, and one wounded. This occurred in Powell's valley, not far from Cumberland Gap. The rest te turned without delay.In the great amount and rush of business in all parts of this country, there is some probability that too little attention may be given to the history of the early settlements or attempted settle ments - to the dangers, the distress, the heroic courage, and the long endurance of the Hunters of Kentucky.Many sketches of Kenton's life have been written, some with, and some without adequate knowledge of the subject.Preparatory to writing this sketch, the writer hereof spent a week in the State Library at Columbus, examining the various accounts found there. To show the uncritical way in which so called History is too often written, it may be proper to state that in these various publications it was found that Kenton was born in two different counties, at six different dates, and that he died on three different days.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
