From the yard the panoramic view is magnificent. Looking due east Cedar-Knobb at Bethelridge, southeast the tall timber reminds us this is Ware, Ky. southward, a few homes on Oak Hill Ridge, then southwest, one of the higher place in eastern Casey County, is Green River Knobb, Mintonville, Ky. Moving due west is more level. At evening the sunsets are spectacular. Moving northwest, Sandknobb at the Crossroads comes into view. on Easter Sundays young and old alike gather there for an egg hunt. Rocky Knobb is almost due north, now known as Casey County Stone Company. Hatter Creek Hill was one of the first places that used rocks from Rocky Knobb for rood work. It was suggested by Raphael Ware of Argyle, timekeeper on W.P.A. work, to make use of this limestone. Harvesting tomatoes are, left to right: Deedy Luster, Lucy Conley, Rosie Roy and Amy Mae Wesley.

In the 1880's Dr. Garner started practicing medicine in eastern Casey County, which consisted mostly of house calls. When Dr. Garner's telephone would ring many persons listened in to see who was sick. (The telephone system was an open Line.) Being a compassionate person, he responded even though it meant riding horseback all night. He had friends in the neighborhood who sometimes rode along with him for company and also protection. Most babies (6000-7000) were born at home. Lillie (Martin) Perkins (page 78) daughter of W.P. and Bettie Martin (page 73) was the first baby Dr. Garner delivered in Casey County. Dr. Garner was often paid with fresh vegetables, canned and fresh fruit, quilts, meat and poultry. Page 37   Blacksmith Shop Blacksmith Shop in Mintonville (Casey Co.) Ky.

Workers When Roosevelt Was President" The year was 1935 when 100 acres on a ridge near Liberty, Kentucky was allotted for W.P.A. use. The land belonged to M. H. Sasser and Jodey Wilkerson. It was accessible from Brush Creek, up a very rough and steep road, but too rough to come down with a load. There was an entrance off Road 49. Grover Brown who was timekeeper for 100 men, remembers fifty acres were planted in tomatoes. the men made the tomato beds first that furnished them with plants, but first the ground was not tillable. They went to work and cleared the ground. Many stumps were so large that men grubbed them up. Part of the ground was plowed by horse-teem. A portion was plowed with a ford Steel wheel tractor. the other fifty acres were planted in beans. Men were paid $1.00 per day, worked 10 to 11 hours. Most of them walked several miles to work. Charlie Wesley was foreman, and K. Lay was his assistant. Pictured is Scott Lynn with basket of beans, standing is Calvin Allen who worked a short while.   Picture of house, Location unidentified.   Page 40   W.P.A.
