Description

Edmund Jennings was a Kentucky hunter who was among the first to find his way into this valley. This was around 1830. Jennings, upon returning to his home in Kentucky, told his friends and neighbors about the beautiful new area he had discovered.

Shepherd Kirby was one of the first settlers to move his family to the area after hearing about Jenning's find. For years Kirby had suffered from eye infections. As the story goes, one day Kirby was hewing logs for the home he was building, when the pain in his eyes became so intense he quit working and went to the nearby spring to wash his eyes. By the next morning, the misery and suffering from his eye infection had improved tremendously, so he continued washing his eyes daily with the spring water. Within a short time, his eye infection, which had plagued him for his entire life, disappeared.

Talk of Shepherd Kirby's miraculous healing spread fast and, before long, travelers seeking cures for every disease known to man came by. When they returned to their homes, the visitors brought back new stories of their own personal healings. They also brought back the second-hand tales of the incredible healing of others.
