Bishop Asbury named two itinerant Methodist preachers to Kentucky in 1786. One, Rev. Benjamin Ogden, had dedicated himself to religion after the Revolution. He preached in what is now Ky. and Tenn. area. While inspiring countless pioneers, he endured a lifetime of sacrifice and suffering. Born in New Jersey in 1764, he died here in 1834. Monument, gravesite .3 mile east.
