Inspired by the self-supporting stairway designed in Kentucky’s Old State Capitol (1830) by Gideon Shyrock, this graphic element is also reminiscent of a similar architectural feature in the Thomas D. Clark Center for Kentucky History 1999.

October 2011

For more than 20 years, the Kentucky Historical Society Foundation has been a solid keystone for the Kentucky Historical Society,

offering researchers, students and visitors the resources to unlock connections to the past, perspective on the present and

inspiration for the future. Donors to the Kentucky Historical Society Foundation enable KHS to thrive.

In this 2011 KHS Foundation Annual Report, we acknowledge and thank those individuals, corporations and foundations who

gave to more than 30 different programs and activities this year at KHS. By giving to the 2011 KHS Foundation’s Annual Fund,

Elizabeth Lloyd “Libby” Jones Student Scholarship Fund, the Kentucky Treasures Fund, or any number of KHS Foundation restricted

initiatives, donors bring Kentucky history to life and keep it alive for generations to come.

We are proud of the work that the Kentucky Historical Society and Kentucky Historical Society Foundation accomplish together. We

are especially proud of and thankful for the donors who support the ongoing and important work of preserving and collecting the

commonwealth’s heritage so that all generations of Kentuckians can know, understand and cherish their history now and well into

the future.

Together, KHS and the KHS Foundation are entrusted with an important statewide mission to preserve, present and protect the

vital historic resources of our state. We are honored by the generosity of those who joined with us to make this year a success.

John R. HallPresident, KHS Foundation2010-2011

Sincerely,

Robert E. RichPresident, KHS 2010-2011

Donors are Key to Success at KHS

As executive director of the Kentucky Historical Society (KHS) Foundation, I am pleased to present the

2011 KHS Foundation Annual Report. We take this opportunity to thank those who have supported us

this past year through their financial contributions and also, to present some of the ways in which your

contributions have advanced the mission of KHS so that “all Kentuckians can know their roots in time

and in place,” as Dr. Thomas D. Clark envisioned.

We hope you will take time to review this annual report and come to understand how critical private

donations of all sizes are to the success of the Kentucky Historical Society. We are pleased to note that

the KHS Foundation this year received more total gifts than ever before, with 934 people and organizations contributing 1,141

donations to KHSF in fiscal year 2011, including 228 new donors. We are extremely grateful to those who continue to support KHS

and the KHS Foundation even in difficult financial times. Private contributions enable KHS to carry out its statewide mission of

preserving, collecting and presenting Kentucky’s heritage for all age groups, all across Kentucky.

Each year, the Elizabeth Lloyd “Libby” Jones Student Scholarship Fund supports school field trips to the KHS history campus for

qualifying schools and their teachers. Named for former KHS president and current KHS Foundation board member Elizabeth Lloyd

“Libby” Jones, this scholarship paid the admission fees for 8,417 students and their teachers in fiscal year 2011. In addition, the

Kentucky Treasures Fund helped KHS acquire an important photograph documenting the individuals associated with a key Civil

War artifact in the KHS Collections. You can read about this artifact on the back cover of this Annual Report.

Gifts to the KHS Foundation’s Annual Fund this year supported approximately 30 different programs and activities at KHS,

including new educational programming for teachers and students as well as an annual summer internship program to provide

experiential training to the next generation of public historians, librarians and museum professionals. The KHS Foundation is

also extremely proud of the fellowship support we offer to scholars and historians to visit KHS to study and utilize our collections

in their writings and research. The role of a state historical society is to promote historical knowledge and understanding, and

the KHS Research Fellows program makes a lasting impact on the future of Kentucky history. The KHS Foundation also provided

support for the successful opening of the newly renovated “Toyota Kentucky Hall of Governors” exhibition with financial assistance

to one of the most memorable Boone Day celebrations in KHS history. Seven of the eight living Kentucky governors participated in

a panel discussion as part of Boone Day 2011, which was moderated and broadcast by Kentucky Educational Television. For many

of us, the 2011 Boone Day program showed the best of KHS in providing a forum where history can be shared, discussed and

understood in new contexts.

Please take a few moments to celebrate what you helped KHS achieve in 2010-2011.

Elizabeth Lloyd “Libby” Jones Scholarship Fund Supports Student Visits to KHS

The Kentucky Historical Society experienced another strong

year of school group participation during the 2010-2011 school

year. Approximately 17,500 students, parents and teachers

visited the Thomas D. Clark Center for Kentucky History and the

Old State Capitol.

Nearly 8,500 of those students and adults who visited KHS this

year received scholarship assistance from the Elizabeth Lloyd

“Libby” Jones Scholarship Fund, which covers the admission

fees for qualifying school groups under the federal free and

reduced lunch criteria.

In 2010-2011, KHS revised its approach to school group

programming to better meet the curricular needs of students

and teachers. The result has been pre- and post-visit contact

with teachers, smaller group sizes and greater individual

participation in our galleries and exhibits, and a sharper focus

on learning outcomes. Teacher response has been extremely

positive.

“Libby Jones’s commitment to education and to Kentucky

preservation efforts led to the KHS Foundation to create a

special fund that ensures all school groups, regardless of their

students’ ability to pay, can experience the Society’s exhibitions

and educational programs,” said John R. Hall, KHS Foundation

president.

Most of the private donations to the Libby Jones Scholarship

Fund are contributed during a benefit held in conjunction

with the Abraham Lincoln Society major donor recognition

event. Additional funding is contributed throughout the year

by corporations, foundations, and individuals with interests in

supporting history education and at-risk youth programming.

New Bookeye® Scanner Enables Researchers to Make Copies of Delicate Documents

Grants from the Kentucky Historical Society (KHS) Foundation

and the Kentucky Genealogical Society (KGS) recently made

possible the purchase of a high-quality Bookeye® scanner for

the Martin F. Schmidt Research Library.

The scanner enables staff in the library to help preserve the

condition of historic books and documents, while still receiving

high resolution images of the pages. The Bookeye® scanner,

which cost more than $20,000, scans in full-color up to 600

dots per inch, which is necessary for preservation-quality

images. It also has a cradle that adjusts the elevation of the

documents during the scanning process, which is especially

helpful with bound documents. The machine can scan large

copies, up to 22” x 28”.

“What this means for researchers is that material that could

not previously be copied can be copied now,” said Louise Jones,

KHS director of special collections and library services. “This

allows everybody to have the same technological access.”

The scanner also makes high-quality photocopies as well

as digital images which can be copied to a flash drive.

Researchers who are interested in using this equipment simply

inquire at the reference desk and KHS staff will assist with

making either digital or hard copies. The cost is 25 cents per

page for KHS and KGS members and 30 cents per page for

non-members.

KHS has begun to explore outreach possibilities with the

Bookeye. In October 2011, the library and special collections

staff held their first “Scan Fest” so that individuals and

organizations could come in to scan their items free of charge.

Without the support of the KHS Foundation and the KGS, it is

unlikely that this equipment could have been acquired.

“This technology is expensive, in part, because of its

versatility,” said Jones.

What YOU Can Discover at the Kentucky Historical Society

The Kentucky Historical Society Foundation began supporting

an annual KHS Internship Program in summer 2011. The

foundation’s goal is to support up to six paid summer

internships per year to achieve projects important to KHS and

to provide professional development opportunities for both

undergraduate and graduate students interested in public

history, museum and library professions.

Below is one intern’s account of his summer 2011 experience,

taken from the KHS blog, www.historyburgoo.com. It was

originally posted June 28, 2011:

When I first got the phone call that I had been accepted as an

intern at the Kentucky Historical Society, I was thrilled. The

internship at KHS would offer some much needed hands-on

experience in archiving practices and, as I would discover upon

my first day at KHS, that there is much more to working in a

historical society than I had perceived. 

On any given day working at the historical society, I am

learning something new about the state of Kentucky.  In

the oral history collection, I am more than likely auditing

and digitizing tapes of interviews or writing descriptions of

collections that haven’t been cataloged yet. The most recent

of which is the oral histories of some of our more prolific

governors of the 20th century. I can’t tell you the amount of

intrigue one can accumulate while watching an interview with

Bert T. Combs over his battle with educational reform in this

state or reading through a transcript of John Y. Brown and his

dealings with the famous “Colonel” of Kentucky Fried Chicken

fame. And these are only a fraction of interesting artifacts to

be found. 

Genealogy is a huge interest of patrons who come to the

society.  When I am in the microfilm room or manning the

reference desk, I help patrons find all sorts of records about

ancestors that inhabited this state, spanning from marriage

certificates from the late 1700s or court records of the 19th

century.  There are even rare books that patrons can access

that date back to the 1800s. If you are a visual person, KHS

has thousands of photographs in our collection of many

different topics. A personal favorite of mine are photographs

of Kentucky servicemen going off to fight WWII in the 1940s.  I

could go on and on about the vast amount of historical

information that can be found at the historical society, but

then it wouldn’t be any fun in discovering it for yourself!

Interning at the Kentucky Historical Society will no doubt be

a tremendous impact on my future professional career.  The

things I have learned here will be things I take with me forever.

Tommy Grant, master’s candidate in Library and Information

Science, University of Kentucky, was a 2011 summer intern in

the Martin F. Schmidt Library.

Kentucky History Research & Interpretation

PROMOTING HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDING FOR THE 21ST CENTURY

Simply owning collections is not enough to ensure the future of

Kentucky history. New historical understanding requires in-depth

research into these collections. KHS and the KHS Foundation raise

private funds each year ($10,000 in fiscal year 2011) to support

short-term scholarly research fellowships. These one- to four-week

fellowships assist scholars with travel and living expenses to

conduct groundbreaking research in KHS collections. Often, these

researchers come from outside Kentucky to seek new knowledge

about the state and the region.

Funding from the KHS Scholarly Research Fellowships allows

scholars to spend time with KHS collections and staff, and serves

as the basis for countless doctorate dissertations, scholarly books

and articles published in the Register of the Kentucky Historical

Society and other leading history journals. It is just one important

way in which KHS and KHSF are expanding the field of historical

knowledge about Kentucky and its people.

Fellowship applications are awarded on a competitive basis

and are evaluated by a panel of historians on the merits of the

proposed research and the extent to which the judges believe that

research can be advanced through use of collections at KHS.

During fiscal year 2011, KHS and KHS Foundation supported the

following 13 scholars from across the country:

Jeffrey Bain-Conkin (University of Notre Dame)

Religious Practice in Nineteenth-Century Louisville

Nancy E. Baker (Sam Houston State University)

The ERA Battle in Kentucky

Shannon Smith Bennett (Indiana University)

A Different Civil War: Rioting in the Ohio Valley, 1860-1890

Anne Y. Brinton (The Pennsylvania State University)

Households Built on Shifting Sands: Slavery and Emancipation in

the Loyal Western Border States

Allison Fredette (University of Florida)

Between North and South: Gender, Regional Identity, and the Law in

the Border South, 1840-1880

Lorraine McConaghy (Museum of History & Industry)

Richard Dickerson Gholson: A Political History in Kentucky,

Washington Territory, and Tennessee, 1849-1862

Kent A. McConnell (Phillips Exeter Academy)

A Time-Stained God: Civil War Deaths, Religion,

and the Remaking of God

Brian Craig Miller (Emporia State University)

Reconstructing Manhood: Women and the Experience

of Confederate Amputees

Jennifer Nickeson (State University of New York at Buffalo)

Each year, nearly 1,500 students participate in the Kentucky

Junior Historical Society (KJHS), an educational program that

provides opportunities for Kentucky’s youth (grades K - 12) to

learn about Kentucky history and contribute to their communities

through service-learning projects.

The Kentucky Historical Society Foundation provides annual fund

and restricted grant support to KJHS and the complementary

Kentucky History Day (KHD) Program. These two programs were

joined in 2010 to provide programmatic support to each other.

In fiscal year 2011, KJHS and KHD received $13,845 in private

support from grants and gifts made to the KHS Foundation.

“KJHS is building leaders, historians and good stewards,” wrote

Robin McMurtrey, a kindergarten teacher at North Jackson

Elementary in Barren County, in a recent letter to KHS,  “We must

continue to maintain clubs and start new clubs - our children

deserve them!”

At the end of April each year, nearly 600 KJHS members gather

in Frankfort for the annual conference, consisting of service-

learning workshops, student officer elections and an awards

ceremony.

KJHS members also compete in academic contests at regional,

state and national levels. State winners in each category travel

to Maryland each June to face peers from across the nation.

Students and their families also have the opportunity to visit

museums and memorials, speak with Kentucky’s legislators and

see the U.S. Capitol.

“I believe the Kentucky Junior Historical Society has done a lot

for me,” wrote Mikinley Grace Lustenberg, a sixth grade student

from Phillip A. Sharp Middle School in Pendleton County.  “I am a

straight ‘A’ student, and I believe KJHS is a big part of that.”

Kentucky Junior Historical SocietyKHS FOUNDATION SUPPORTS

The KHS Foundation appreciates the individuals, corporations and foundations that

supported the Kentucky Historical Society in 2010-2011. To make your contribution

for 2011-2012, please contact the Kentucky Historical Society Foundation at

502-564-1792, ext. 4451 or visit www.history.ky.gov. Donations are accepted by

check, by credit card and online. As you consider your estate plans, please remember

the Kentucky Historical Society Foundation.

Collections are the centerpiece of the Kentucky Historical Society’s mission. The

Kentucky Historical Society Foundation plays an important role in assisting KHS by

providing financial resources to purchase, preserve, and present Kentucky-related

artifacts and special collections through the Kentucky Treasures Fund.

In 2011, the KHS Foundation provided funds through Kentucky Treasures to purchase

an ambrotype of Color-Sgt. Freeland H. Cully of Elizabethtown, Ky., to go along

with a historic Confederate flag already in the KHS Collections. An ambrotype is a

negative image on a glass medium, and when inverted and placed in front of a dark

background, a positive image is produced. This was one of the primary forms of

photography from the early 1850s through the 1870s, and a popular form during the

Civil War.

Culley was a color-bearer of Company C, 2nd Infantry, Confederate States of America

(CSA). The flag he carried, the Confederate 1st National Flag, is housed at KHS,

along with four additional artifacts in special collections also related to Culley: an

original “Application for Furlough under General Order No. 227,” “Descriptive List

and Account of Pay and Clothing,” his “Soldier’s Hospital Certificate” from 1864,

and his signed “Oath of Allegiance” to the United States of America, dated June 10,

1865. These documents tell much about Culley’s family, occupation, and experiences

before, during and after the war.

Thanks to the Kentucky Treasures Fund, KHS now has an image of Culley to bring

these artifacts and documents to life. Adding Culley’s ambrotype to the KHS

Collection was an important acquisition because of its historical value. Identified

Confederate ambrotypes are rare, especially of Kentucky Confederates, and the state

has no official records for the 2nd Kentucky Infantry (CSA).

Perhaps most important is that the ambrotype puts a human face on a collection

of items that KHS already owns. Visitors and researchers no longer need to try to

imagine what Freeland Culley looked like, since KHS now has an actual image of him

dating to 1861. Providing critical funding to purchase artifacts such as the Freeland

Culley ambrotype is one important way the KHS Foundation supported the mission of

the Kentucky Historical Society in 2011.

The Kentucky Historical Society is an agency of the Tourism, Arts and Heritage Cabinet.
