"Moses Robinson obtained freedom for himself and his enslaved family before the Civil War. Determined to give his children a place of their own to live, he left a will directing his executor to purchase farms for each of them. These farms become the Black community of Dry Ridge in eastern Clark County, Kentucky. Here the Robinson children, their descendants and neighbors managed to carve out an existence and, in a sense, to partake of the "good life" they associated with freedom. Today, two cemeteries, the rough foundation of a school, and few old house sites are the starting point for preservation of this historic settlement."--
