Where on Earth . . . ?

We can't be quite sure if Daniel Boone had statehood on his mind when he came through the mountain passes and first glimpsed the lands which would become Kentucky . . . but might he have been in a "Harrison County state of mind"?

While it is rumored that "Ol' Dan" once visited the county for a brief spell, many tens of thousands who followed in his footsteps have come to call Harrison County "home."  A few got their education and got out, others were just passing through, but many more made the county's communities their home for a lifetime, got schooled here, attended church here, and in the end . . . took up permanent residence in a local or church cemetery.
