1 50 17 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections. For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Description An account of the resource Robert Foster Collins (1906-1999) was born in Lansing, Michigan to Frank Noble and Grace Foster Collins. He received his formal education in the public schools of southern Michigan and graduated with a B.S.F in 1928 from Michigan State University. In 1929 he obtained a M.F. degree from the Yale Forest School of Yale University. After a stint in the military and other forestry related jobs he was assigned in 1953 as forest supervisor of the Cumberland National Forest (renamed Daniel Boone National Forest in the 1960s) in Kentucky. During his tenure the Forest Service successfully resisted the encroachment of strip miners in the forest and saw the rise of an active conservation movement in the region. Most of the materials in this collection relate to Mr. Collins' occupation as a United States Forest Service administrator. Of particular interest to the researcher is Collins' research notes and draft of his manuscript on The History of the Daniel Boone National Forest. In addition, there is information about pioneer Kentucky history and material about conservation and environmental issues in Kentucky during the last quarter of the 20th century. Included is a large collection of color slides which Collins took of Winchester and Clark County historical sites and structures and of field and streams and flora and fauna of Kentucky. The papers also contain information about weapons a favorite subject of Collins. Only a portion of this collection has been digitized. See the <a href="http://ekufindingaids.libraryhost.com/index.php?p=collections/findingaid&id=82&q=">Finding Aid</a> for a description of the entire collection.

Overall, the collection captures Tipton's interests in history, journalism and local and regional events, as well as, to a lesser extent, national and global affairs. In particular, the collection contains the remaining notes and correspondence that Tipton had compiled while researching Madison County for his unpublished History of Madison County Kentucky. The scrapbooks that are included in the collection contain enough information to reconstruct the public identity that Tipton maintained, whereas the surviving correspondence can be used to unravel Tipton's research methods and personal interests. French Tipton's tragic end during an altercation in downtown Richmond terminated his research and left many questions about his personal and professional life unanswered.

Apparently there was some confusion on the part of Embry. He was unsure exactly what desired information Judge Tipton sought in regards to the post offices of the Madison County region. He provides some information he feels relevant and requests further instruction. post offices https://digitalcollections.eku.edu/files/original/57aa3081699a74a093a94b1941ccff6e.jpg 7985a09552f419429506033a142d3145 https://digitalcollections.eku.edu/files/original/ab1e63d7ba5e79441044ada0d30f5fe5.jpg e62a81ccc33d864c7a4817e068e8012e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Tipton, French Papers Description An account of the resource The French Tipton Papers include correspondence, scrapbooks, and personal notes by French Tipton of Madison County, Kentucky. Overall, the collection captures Tipton's interests in history, journalism and local and regional events, as well as, to a lesser extent, national and global affairs. In particular, the collection contains the remaining notes and correspondence that Tipton had compiled while researching Madison County for his unpublished History of Madison County Kentucky. The scrapbooks that are included in the collection contain enough information to reconstruct the public identity that Tipton maintained, whereas the surviving correspondence can be used to unravel Tipton's research methods and personal interests. French Tipton's tragic end during an altercation in downtown Richmond terminated his research and left many questions about his personal and professional life unanswered. Only a portion of this collection has been digitized. See the <a href="http://ekufindingaids.libraryhost.com/?p=collections/findingaid&id=6&q=">Finding Aid</a> for a description of the entire collection.

Embry, Washington D.C.. Consequently, they are related in many ways and provide a glimpse of Judge Tipton's political connections. The first addresses a discrepancy that Tipton raised regarding a short lived post office station in either Madison, or one of the surrounding counties. Interestingly, and an all too common circumstance for the period, Embry mentions the Post Office Department records for the area in questioned were burned. Possibly during the events of the War of 1812. post offices
