Oldest Settlers J C Huddleston and J K Chapman Recall Pioneer Days
J C Huddleston and J K Chapman, aged 73, are among the area’s oldest settlers. They arrived about fifty years ago to work in the woods near Ladysmith, helped establish a homestead in Clark county, and endured wolves and bears near their log house. Both veterans of the Civil War remember rough conditions, distant rail lines, and sparse provisions. They now live together in Ladysmith, recalling a time when the forest was vast and game easy to shoot from the door.
