Love these short history videos! That’s how we make them too, short & to the point!
Thank You So much for uploading this fantastic history video. I really enjoyed the music!
My mom was from Harlan. Lived in Closplint and Ages for a bit. Family were all miners of course.
Harlan is rich with Kentucky History.
Also moon shine was produce in Harlan County Ky.
To this day it is
yep, my great uncles ran it. They were known as the King boys. Otis, Olan, and Buster.
I was born in Morristown but all my family on my mom's side grew up in Lynch, Ky that's located on the N/E side of Harlan County. My grandpa worked in the mines in Lynch until he retired, that's when they moved to Morristown and I was born shortly after that to their oldest daughter. I spent a lot of time in Lynch when I was a kid, it was a beautiful place and still is but it's nothing like it once was when US Steel owned the town.
Born n raised in Harlan🇺🇸
I live in Harlan County my channel is about Harlan County Kentucky how we live what’s changed it’s ginseng season doing a lot of root digging videos right now
Love
Just curious if anyone knows where exactly in Harlan Pharmacist John Lachey lived in 1973? Where was he employed? How long did he live in Harlan?
Fascinating
wonder if he was related to nick lachey the actor/singer
I drive a truck through eastern Kentucky. It was a crying shame to watch the coal communities wither away under the attacks of the Obama/Democrats rule.
My fiance has family up there, it was so sad watching the communities die because the mines shut down.
Still today. Obama 2.0
😹
My family settled there in the early days. I was related to chief redbird. Us noes moved from Harlan to Mt vernon
Me too. Chief red bird
Inquiring as to the most accurate percentage of my blood still bound to the blood of the Cherokee nation by way of birthright and name. Turns out my family history is way more rooted too those whom so long ago assimilated and took Christian names amidst the families who were once sojourners of the Appalachian mountains including Harlan and Wallins Creek. I know that my great great grandpa mother's side took the name Aaron Brock of Harlan co. Total pride for my RedBird link however I learned last night that my great great grandmother also on my mom's side was was The grandmother of mammaw Mercedes Durham Daniel Chadwick. Her mother was Sarah "Ella" Ellen Day Osborne and her 100 percent link was her mother and possibly her father as well Her name was Elizabeth "Bettie" Helton. It was awesome to uncover these ties. Also if my Cherokee heritage weren't already stout enough to aide my wildlife photography towards publication. I have always heard that the only lineages responsible for my father's side is Scotch-Irish protestants who saw Coldiron and parts of the Appalachian and was reminded of their ancestral home except in this case the land hadn't yet been stripped a raped of all it's resources and wealth able to be wraught from it. Also, it didn't definitely never hurt to realize you are now an entire Naval Nope away from being inslaved again or treated as a carrier of inferior genetics. Oh yeah, my great great gpaw Scot Scott Neil related to Mary Queen of Scotts married a gorgeous Cherokee flower whom shared with him her rumored ability to sing such a tune that supposedly no matter the song chosen from any endless sea of writers, singers, or
instrumental artist's.. your chosen vocal savant could not evoke even a fraction of the feeling and range of emotions she could pipe into your psychology. Also, he had a superior skill at securing supper with just a stone in his hand.(jealous to my grave on account of that pre black powder musket & minne ball 35 second at the very least to start from a push rod placement resulting in a effective and equal pressure against the wadding along the bore of the rifle leading to the quick pop of the ignited powder as opposed to a sheeewplewp of pressure escaping the barrel. Remember this while marching to a cadence and firing at a substantial opposing front line also marching outside cover at a range of no more than 40 years.

Thanks dude, somber to watch, but cool at the same time. Sucks the anonymity of owners is allowed, they caused all the problems which forced workers to unionize.
Howard family is my ancestor
How would I find out the history of my grandfather was there in the1800s .what office in Kentucky would have anything in record. He then married my grandma in Missouri. They later came to Oregon and farmed and rancged. They are buried here now in Oregon. I never got to see them. They both died in there 40s...( 7 months before I was born.
id suggest heading to either Ancestry.com and subscribing monthly for research, or, if that isnt an option, go to Family search.org, which is free, and lots of times other people have came across your ancestor as an uncle, or aunt, and would remember stories about them and have posted stories, or pictures. atleast here, you would be able to place a timeline on them using census records, and marriage records. OR you might also be able to find a group on facebook. I.E. (Smiths of Harlan County, or, Families of x county oregon) or what have you. because, chances are, someone out there remembers something about them!
✊🏾🖤💪🏿 God's coal country. Right outside of this old church town there's an old dirt road

I come from a coal mining town in West Virginia that also suffered decline because of the reduced demand for coal. Nearly ALL of the 85 students who graduated with me in the late 90's left the town to find work and a better life. Working in the mines was considered a last resort to us and as the digital age arose, the kids all saw that there was no future in it or our town. I don't blame anyone for that, its simply a natural progression of the energy market. Fossil fuels are a finite resource and we cannot rely on them forever, that is indesputable, not to mention that the mining and burning of the coal is an environmental disaster. Coal mine jobs may pay a decent wage.. MAYBE.. but are still dangerous and dead end. Times change and if the folks in Harlan and little coal mining towns like mine don't change with them, then they wil become as fossilized as the coal the dig out of those hills.
Did harlan run out of coal? Or did it stopped being mined due to regulations from the feds? It's hard to get a straight answer on this. I'm not biased either way don't care just simply curious.
Coal is needed for more than just energy it is used for steel making as well as cement. Coal is also used for making chemicals and other products. Burning coal is not it's only use.
