Miss Kincaid was encouraged by another Lexington native, Mary Desha, who in 1890 while living in Washington D.C. became one of four founders of the National Society, Daughters of the America Revolution. When an encampment of settlers at McConnell Springs learned about the patriots’ victory at the Battle of Lexington, Massachusetts., they named their fledging community Lexington. In 1896, only five years after its founding, the Lexington Chapter erected a monument at Bryan Station, commemorating the courage of the women of the fort who, during the siege of 1782, fetched water from the spring. The women’s names are carved on the walls to memorialize their bravery. The monument has been preserved several times and an extensive restoration was performed in 2019. The spring still bubbles within the walls of the stone monument as it did during the 1782 battle. https://www.lexingtonchapternsdar.live/our-officers daily 0.75 2025-06-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628fe17b934a97016b5958ac/f026fee7-58ab-4abe-b3a6-70aecc850465/Owens+judy+2023+DAR+with+pins.jpg Our Leadership - Judy Owens Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

Pattie Blackburn was one of the women who sewed masks for the 2020 project to address COVID-19. The following is an oral history taken at that time about why she volunteered for this important project. What motivated you to start sewing masks? Back in January 2020 I was at a Water Aerobics class when a friend said she would help me clean and service my portable Singer sewing machine. It really hadn't been working for several years. We got it in working order but I hadn't yet used it for any projects. Back in March I first saw the need since I’m a volunteer at Bluegrass Navigators (Hospice). I was able to begin using some fabric and elastic that I had in the basement to create face masking using a pattern I got off the computer. I didn't keep a total count but I do know that I was able to make and donate at least over 50 fabric masks to following: Sayre Christian Village, Kroger employees, Hospice volunteers, Government workers in Washington D.C., Library worker in Tennessee, church staff members, Senior Citizens, Park and Rec worker, office workers, family members and friends. How did you learn how to sew? I was age 8 when I entered my first 4-H sewing project in the County Fair. My grandmother, mother, and older sisters all helped to teach me the love of sewing. How long have you been sewing? Due to my sewing machine poor condition and arthritis joints in my hand and body I hadn't been sewing for a long time. What is your favorite tip or piece of equipment? Describe the area where you sew. Since I hadn't had a working sewing machine for years, I found myself using the kitchen bar, table and great room. My husband was very patient to walk and move around the face mask making projects for many days during the early part of this Covid-19 quarantine. What part of the mask project has been the most meaningful to you? Knowing that during the beginning of the quarantine I was able to use my time meaningfully. What had been your biggest frustration? Sadly, using my hands to cut, fashion and sew had resulted in a flare up of discomfort with joint inflammation and pain. Therefore, I had put the sewing machine back up into the closet. When members in the future look back on our work, what would you want them to say? I love that our DAR ladies have taken to heart the need and spent our time answering the need to sew face covering to help others in this time of need. Anything you want to add about your experience with the Lexington Chapter, DAR? As a citizen of the U.S A. I stress the need to have us join and work together during this crisis. I encourage each person to pray, educate themself and use this time to reach outside themselves to help your fellow man. https://www.lexingtonchapternsdar.live/about-1-4 daily 0.75 2022-07-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628fe17b934a97016b5958ac/79e4aa5e-ea52-4e50-9bd8-1a6bd41f01af/Bryan+Station+table.jpg Rededication - Bryan Station Monument to Water Bearers Rededicated By Judy Owens Lexington Chapter Vice-Regent In a moving, yet simple, ceremony, the Lexington Chapter, NSDAR rededicated its Bryan Station monument on Sunday, August 4. Against a backdrop of a brilliant summer sky and a gentle breeze, more than 200 people joined the Lexington Daughters to remember the courage of the women of Bryan Station, and of all pioneer women. The octagon-shaped monument, commissioned by the Lexington Chapter and dedicated on August 15, 1896, was restored using funds raised by the chapter. “What a wonderful event we had on Sunday,” said Clara Wilson, Chapter Regent. “I am so proud of our chapter and am humbled to be the regent. We have so many talented and gifted members who work together in friendship and love.” Lexington Chapter Member Donna Dodd Terrell Jones, a Bryan Station descendant, gave the keynote address. Mrs. Wilson and Patricia Blackburn, as Chapter Chaplain, re-dedicated the monument. Amelia Wisner, who chaired the re-dedication committee, welcomed guests and acted as host. Sons of the American Revolution presented colors, and long-time veterans advocate and past Miss America Heather French Henry led the singing of the national anthem. Speakers honored the unheralded courage of the women who saved Bryan Station. “When the doors of the Bryan Station fort opened, the women emerged,” said Mrs. Jones. “Like our World War II troops storming the beaches of Normandy on D-Day under the constant fire of German machine guns atop a wall of cliffs; and like our first responders who ran into the flaming World Trade towers on 9/11, the Women of Bryan Station walked directly into the jaws of almost assured death. “The Women of Bryan Station walked to the well carrying their buckets and gourds and they got water and they trudged back up the hill and, finally, they re-entered the gates. Miraculously, though no doubt emotionally traumatized, they were physically unscathed.” Various dignitaries, such as Lexington District 6 Council Member Angela Evans and KSDAR State Regent Carol Rogow were present. Greetings were brought on behalf of Mayor Linda Gorton, Rep. Andy Barr and Gov. Matt Bevin. More than 25 descendants of the water bearers attended. Visitors from four states drove for hours to honor their ancestors. Two Scout Troops assisted visitors, and at least three photographers were on hand to document and video the event. The Lexington Herald-Leader had published an article and video about the stone masonry repair prior to the re-dedication. WLEX-18 covered the re-dedication live. Bryan’s Station was established around 1775-76 by four Bryan brothers from North Carolina. By 1782, with about 40 log cabins inside, the fort withstood several Indian attacks. Its most significant challenge was in August 1782, when about 300 Shawnee, Delaware, Wyandot and other Native American tribes surrounded Bryan’s Station. Also in the raiding party were Canadian rangers, all led by British Capt. William Caldwell and Simon Girty. Four short years after the Lexington DAR Chapter was established, the monument celebrating the courage of the Bryan Station women was erected. The names of the defenders are memorialized on the Indiana limestone monument. While Lexington Chapter Treasurer Susan Mullins worked with Stuart Joynt to restore the monument, Chapter Registrar Amelia Wisner headed the team to plan the rededication. Balancing the logistics of the spring’s torrential rain with the landowners’ availability,, in the end, Mrs. Wisner was thrilled. “We had around 200 guests, prospectives, ladies waiting to be verified, dignitaries, photographers, channel 18 news,” she said. “Mother nature was kind-hearted. I just got a text from my mother-in-law saying she saw it on the news! A prospective member signed her papers today - right there at the site!” Located on a private farm, approximately three miles north on New Circle Road on the west side of Bryan Station Road, the monument is not open to the general public. In August 2007 Bryan Station Chapter, along with the Lexington Chapter, sponsored a dedication in cooperation with the Kentucky Humanities Council, and the Kentucky State Parks Foundation. In 2015, KET recorded a short segment on Kentucky Life with Regent Carol Bailey about the brave women of Bryan Station. The committee to rededicate the monument launched two fundraisers. Judy Owens and Vickie Canham spearheaded a craft project, creating hand fans that commemorate the women. More than 80 fans were sold the day of the event,. In addition. Mrs. Canham designed and commissioned a beautiful commemorative pin, featuring the image of a water bearer. The pin sold out. The leadership of the Lexington Chapter is considering other ways to continue telling the story of Bryan Station. https://www.lexingtonchapternsdar.live/deborah-greshan daily 0.75 2022-07-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628fe17b934a97016b5958ac/3d19fac1-3ee4-4084-bc05-90f232e808aa/Debbie+Gresham+with+sprayer.jpeg Deborah Greshan - Deborah Gresham.

Stuart Joynt restored the Bryan Station monument, an octagon-shaped Indiana limestone structure commissioned by the Lexington Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution and dedicated on August 15, 1896. The monument creates a sanctuary over a spring running off North Elkhorn Creek. The spring still flows, clear and cool, as it did when the women of Bryan Station risked their lives to obtain the water needed to save the fort when it was attacked by Native Americans and Canadian rangers, led by British Capt. William Caldwell and Simon Girty. https://www.lexingtonchapternsdar.live/chapter-in-action/project-three-9j4xs monthly 0.5 2024-01-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628fe17b934a97016b5958ac/22ee1672-f798-490d-b060-9ebbcad2d9d3/IMG_5258.jpeg Chapter In Action - 2020 Community Mask Making Project Lexington Chapter member Abbie Malone donated a roll of filtering material to insert into the masks being made.
