About Me

John K. Ross, Jr.
Clinton, Kentucky, United States
I am the curator of the Hickman County Museum in Clinton, KY. I am also an amateur historian who focuses on the Civil War period in Columbus, KY, and the Jackson Purchase region of Kentucky. For my Civil War articles please see my COLUMBUS, KY: GIBRALTAR OF THE WEST blog at http://www.rosswar.blogspot.com. I also write articles for various local newspapers and magazines and give talks on local history and beginner’s genealogy. From time to time I write little essays which I share with friends. For my essays see my blog MEMORIES AND MUSINGS at http://www.rossessays.blogspot.com. Most of my essays are humorous but some are memorial tributes. I might gild the lily just a little on the humorous ones but my essays are all based on true events.
