Boone County
Boone County, an enlightening new volume of vintage images, recaptures the early days of a quiet, conservative community dedicated to the joys and responsibilities of their faith, their families, and farming their land. Comprised of more than 200 images, most of which were contributed by residents descended from early Boone County families, this journey back to the early days of Kentucky's northernmost county celebrates the spirit of the county's residents and honors their experience from the 1880s to the 1940s. From the county's northern boundary at the Ohio River, where the Anderson Ferry has run continuously since 1817, to the rolling pastures of the southern region, this collection captures the unique personalities of rural communities prior to the wave of development that enveloped the county after the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport began in 1947.
Boone County
As one of the fastest growing counties in the country, Boone County has come a long way since its founding in 1799. Communities such as Florence, Union, and Burlington have changed dramatically, but residents still remember the vibrant past. Others such as Rabbit Hash, Belleview, and Petersburg remain small towns with much of their historic charm. In Then & Now: Boone County, vintage images are compared to modern photographs to showcase an interesting history and a tremendous change. The neighborhoods examined in this volume make up the heart of the county.

Black or mulatto individuals are identified by the letters (B) or (M) following their name; all others are presumed to be white. Birth places are indicated by two letter codes."--Introd.
