In April of 1969, Dr. Fred A. Engle, Jr., and Dr. Robert N. Grise began writing a weekly column for the Richmond Daily Register about Madison County, Kentucky, history, entitled Madison's Heritage. The column has included articles about the founding days of the county, as well as important Madison Countians, institutions, and events. The authors have gathered source material from old newspapers, historic primary documents, secondary sources about the area, as well as memories of growing up and living in Madison County. Their column first appeared in the Richmond, Kentucky, newspaper on April 9, 1969 and has been appearing regularly ever since.
