- Excellent video by KET depicting early pioneer life at Fort Harrod and Fort Boonesborough. This video includes many of the actual living history interpreters from the Forts. Friends of Fort Harrod recommends this film for its historical and educational values.
I loved going there for our “last day of school field trip” when I was in First Grade, way way back in the month of June 1978… that’s right, June instead of May. Last day school was mid June in 78 because the snow storms of 78 kept us out of school for a long time… how long of time? I don’t know. I couldn’t tell time till second grade.
Great video. Thanks for sharing
I was raised in Western Kentucky. About 30 years ago my family and I took a road trip through central Kentucky and visited Harold’s Fort, loved seeing this video❤️
Amazing story. Spent 12 summers in Harrodsbug. Lived on Shawnee 🚜 and Kentucky is my favorite state.
Visited the cabin in 2019. Been a Boone fan for many years. Visiting again in July with the family. Staying in Carlisle. A must visit is Blue Licks State Park, site of one of the last battles of the Revolution. Daniel's oldest son, Israel, was killed there. Also recommend the Kentucky Gateway museum in Maysville. Great history of the early settlement of Maysville which involved Boone. Many of his kin are buried in the Pioneer graveyard behind the museum.
Never forget what our forefathers and foremothers suffered that we could have a Nation.
One of my ancestors was a founder of the Transylvania Company.
This was wonderful and very interesting!
My daughter and I stopped at the site about 8-9 years ago We actually drove past couldn't believe only the stone foundation was left
MUITO BOMMMMMM
When it can be found flint rock could be used for starting a fire
settlers adopted the small axe called a tomahawk from the indians yea and the indians adopted it from the french trappers because they brought their franciscas with them.
"native Americans"? Anyone born in the U.S. is a native American. American Indian is the proper term.
@Nitro Dude 72 : No they are American Indians as preferred by Russel Means leader of AIM (American Indian Movement) in the 70s. Means detested the term Native American.That group is still in existence. If you were correct they would call themselves The Native American Movement.
Pay the fuck attention!
I AM AN AMERICAN INDIAN, NOT A NATIVE AMERICAN!
from Russell Means
I abhor the term Native American. It is a generic government term used to describe all the indigenous prisoners of the United States. These are the American Samoans, the Micronesians, the Aleutes, the original Hawaiians and the erroneously termed Eskimos, who are actually Upiks and Inupiats. And, of course, the American Indian.
I prefer the term American Indian because I know its origins. The word Indian is an English bastardization of two Spanish words, En Dio, which correctly translated means in with God. As an added distinction the American Indian is the only ethnic group in the United States with the word American before our ethnicity.
At an international conference of Indians from the Americas held in Geneva, Switzerland at the United Nations in 1977 we unanimously decided we would go under the term American Indian. We were enslaved as American Indians, we were colonized as American Indians and we will gain our freedom as American Indians and then we will call ourselves any damn thing we choose.
Finally, I will not allow a government, any government, to define who I am. Besides anyone born in the Western hemisphere is a Native American.
