KENTUCKY This kinship 0 % Ke n t u c H' y awl Virginia 1 n that ' of par ent and chllil. From Virginia came most of the settlers of the western state, and with them these pioneers brought Virginia institutions and ideals. It was not until ' 1750 that the first authentic journey was made by a white man into central parts of the region afterwards called Ken tucky. Further explorations showed that this territory held two Im portant attractions for settlors. The firat was the great fertility of what Was called the Blue Grass region. The so-called , blue giass, from which 'this state is aleknamcd-" the "Blue Grans State" Is In no wine pe culiar to Kentucky. The second Inducement for ' settler* was the fact that there were no Indians living La this region.^ It was later found that many roving bands of savages crossed the Ohio from the north and sorely harassed the early colonists until Clark's ezpedl - tlona into Ohio and > Indiana checked their invasions. In fact, the name Kentucky Is probably derived from thc^Ifoquols word kentka-ke, meaning "hunting land." Another Interpretation la "dark and bloody ground," hut this Is doubtless Incorrect. '' ? The main highways of travsl at- -that time were Daniel Boone's "Wilderness Road" through Ctoinbertand Gapr nnd down the Ohio!. Hardy idonoers poured Into this new territory In such numbers that in 1702, with the permission of Virginia, Kentucky was admitted to. tho ? Union as the fifteenth state with an area of 40,508 square miles. Kentucky has thirteen electoral votes for president. The re markable phyplcal condition of its population Is shown In a re port of the volunteers In the Civil <srar.
