Portrait here of your son Rev. John & his wife Isabella Moore Drew. You'd be very proud of him.

Reverend John Drew, mulatto, and his wife Isabella, white, were another Jackson County couple who supported (famous abolitionist Rev. John Fee) Berea's work. Their sons Napoleon and Rufus attended Berea in 1867 and their daughter Catherine in 1870. Eventually, Drew would become minister of the church (John G.) Fee had founded at Camp Nelson.

One of my keenest pictorial memories of "Grand", as I called her, was of her standing in the corner of the kitchen, nibbling on a piece of cornbread, a glass of buttermilk in her other hand, while the rest of us ate at her bountifully laid dining room table. I don't ever remember seeing granny Lake sitting down at the table with the rest of us.
I remember going with Gran to a hillside in Paint Lick, Kentucky to hoe sweet potatoes. (Paint Lick was the place where the Lakes first lived after coming down from the Jackson County mountains; it was about 7 miles outside of Berea). The hillside was quite a distance from the house, but it was always a pleasant trip to go along with her. I absolutely adored her and tagged her day and night, listening to her stories and helping her pick greens for the dinner table, dandelions, polk, lamb's quarter and other weeds I have long since forgotten.
Sometimes in late afternoon, Granny would take my brother David and me out under an apple tree and she would cut apples in two and scrape them with a "case" knife for us. Nothing ever tasted so good as those scraped apples except perhaps the sweet little yellow and red cherry tomatoes which she would find for us in her garden behind the house when she hoed her vegetables as we tagged along. With Grandma nurture was the name of the game! She made popcorn for us on cold winter nights or toasted pig skins in the fireplace. And her horehound candy, made from sorghum and the horehound weed she gathered, was delicious. We were with her and Grandpa Ned one winter and spring when it was hog-killing time. We witnessed the whole procedure, which was fascinating to two young city children. Grand used every bit of the hog, even making blood pudding from its blood. She cooked the pig's tail for my brother David, to his delight. Grand was a master cook. Nobody could compete with her biscuits, her fried chicken, the yummy cornbread, fried apples and Kentucky Wonder beans she cooked with bacon. She never used a recipe; it was all in her head.

Your great-granddaughter
Martha Drew Lindley, 99, a resident of Lebanon for 60 years, died peacefully in her assisted living residence in Denver, Colo., on Sept. 9, 2011.

Martha was born Aug. 10, 1912, in Eglin, Ky., near Big Hill, in Jackson County. She was the youngest of six children of Benjamin and Mary Hellard Drew. After Benjamin’s death in 1913, Mary married Sampson Malicote (deceased), and Martha was a loving big sister to her seven younger siblings.

The family moved from Kentucky to southern Indiana in 1926, and Martha graduated in the Class of 1930 from Orleans High School. She excelled in art, shorthand, typing, Latin and algebra, and she went on to study secretarial and business skills at Bedford Business College, and Indiana University and University of Michigan extensions. For the rest of her life, Martha was known for her clarity and accuracy of writing and speaking.

Martha married Paul Lindley (deceased) in 1933, and was a devoted homemaker and mother to their three children, Peggy, Barbara and Barry. After their divorce in 1941, Martha led and supported her family, moving to Lebanon in 1946 to become secretary of the First Baptist Church.

Always an enthusiastic booster of Lebanon, Martha was grateful for the opportunities for herself and her three children, all of whom graduated from Lebanon High School and from colleges in Indiana. Martha taught them all to love learning and to always do their best.

After leaving her position as church secretary, Martha was employed at Industrial Filter Corporation (Delpark), then Indiana Commercial Filters, and then at Allison Division of General Motors in Indianapolis until her retirement in 1977.

Much of Martha’s life was focused on her far-flung family. She was supportive in their disappointments and gladdened by their achievements. She was thrilled to visit places such as Alaska, Edinburgh, Hawaii and Paris with her family. Yet, she was also content in her Northfield Drive home, chatting with her neighbors, flying her flag daily, cultivating her roses, larkspur, and jonquils, and watching the finches that came to her bird feeder. She especially enjoyed the dogwood and the redbud in the Indiana spring, and remembering her childhood in Kentucky.

Martha was a lifelong devoted Baptist, following in her mother Mary’s footsteps and pointing her children toward righteous lives. She loved her churches, the Scriptures, the hymns and prayers. In Lebanon, she also was a member of the Zonta organization and volunteered as a Gray Lady at Witham Memorial Hospital.

Martha was devoted to her mother Mary, crediting her and the Lord for all her strengths in life. After Martha retired, she cared for Mary in her own home in Lebanon and in Mary’s home in Bedford until Mary’s death at age 104.

Barry D. Lindley is particularly known for the strength and vigor of his paintings, as well as his expressive realism in landscape, waterscape, and cityscape and the agility and fluidity of his sketching on location around the world. Recent work emphasizes interpretations drawn from around the DC area and the Arkansas countryside, and from his travels, in places such as Alaska, Paris, VietNam, the Caribbean, Mallorca, South America, and South Africa. He is a juried member of Washington Society of Landscape Painters, a Signature Member of the Baltimore Watercolor Society, Potomac Valley Watercolorists, and Mid-Southern Watercolorists and of the Institut des Arts Figuratifs, and is a founding member of AquaFolio International Group, with whom he has exhibited in Canada and Greece. He is a regular Contributing Writer for the Canadian publication Watercolour Gazette, taught courses at BlackRock Center for the Arts and Eureka Springs School of the Arts, and presents lectures and workshops to artists’ groups. He has paintings in over 300 private collections and many corporate or public collections in 27 states and 7 foreign countries and has won numerous awards.

“I travel widely and draw incessantly. An avid birder, fisherman, hiker, and traveler, I am fascinated with the world around me and driven to express that experience. My art reflects my interest in the sensuous qualities of paint, paper and canvas, abstract design with concrete references to nature, and making paintings as a link to shared experience. In all cases I begin with direct observations, on-site analysis, and – when possible – sketches, although I sometimes use my own reference photographs in making studio paintings. In style, my paintings are largely interpretative, or expressive realism. I choose medium, character of brush work, compositional emphasis, and color relationships to represent how I looked at the subject, how I felt about it, and what I want you to experience as well.”

His most recent major solo exhibition was at The Art League Gallery in the Torpedo Factory in Alexandria, VA.
In addition to scientific degrees from DePauw University and Case Western Reserve University, he studied drawing at the Herron School of Art in Indianapolis and painting at the Cleveland Institute of Art, where he also served as Visiting Lecturer of Medical Illustration. As a painter, he has participated in workshops but is primarily self-taught from active practice, visits to the great galleries of the world, and books. Now a resident of Washington, DC, he lived and worked for many years in Indiana, Ohio and Arkansas. A full-time artist after a distinguished career as a scientist and educator, he paints on location and in his studio at Columbia Pike Artist Studios in Arlington, VA.

Reverend John Gregg Fee

Reverend John Gregg Fee (1816-1901) was born the eldest son of a slaveholding Bracken County, Kentucky family. In 1855, as a resident of Madison County, Fee and members of his church founded the town of Berea and Berea Institute, which in 1859 became Berea College. As a an antislavery advocate, born into a slaveholding family below the Mason-Dixon Line, Fee promulgated his non-violent, anti-slavery views in a hostile environment with little support or protection from the law, family, friends or associates at the height of America’s most violently aggressive proslavery and antislavery period. Despite these obstacles, Fee actively promoted a southern antislavery ministry and “the cause of Christ” which led to the establishment of the integrated utopian community of Berea and the founding of Berea College, the first college in the South devoted to the co-education of men and women, blacks and whites.

In 1842, at the age of 26, Fee enrolled in Lane Theological Seminary in Cincinnati, Ohio, a school established by Lyman Beecher to educate Presbyterian ministers for the Western Frontier. It was at Lane that Fee became fully converted to the cause of immediate abolition. Fee viewed this life changing decision as a declaration of his “death to the world,” stating “I saw that to embrace the principle and wear the name [abolitionist] was to cut myself off from relatives and former friends, and apparently from all prospects of usefulness in the world.”

As an abolitionist, Fee was encouraged by others to move either his budding Presbyterian ministry to the neighboring State of Indiana or to participate in missionary efforts in West Africa under the sponsorship of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. However, Fee chose to strike at the heart of slavery within his home state of Kentucky and the slaveholding South. Selling Indiana land given to him by his father, Fee used the funds to purchase the freedom of the black woman that had cared for him as a child, Jullet Miles (1812-1859), and to establish his first antislavery ministry on Cabin Creek in Lewis County, Kentucky.
In 1844, disowned and disinherited by his slaveholding father, and receiving financial support primarily from the American Missionary Association, Fee established an antislavery church in the mountains of Lewis County, Kentucky in addition to pastoring a number of “free” integrated churches in Kentucky’s rural northern Ohio River counties. In each of the counties where Fee preached or established a church, he and his family members were violently attacked for their antislavery views, which Fee openly promoted. These violent events would remain a repeating pattern for Fee throughout the years of his antislavery ministry.
