Hindman Settlement School traces its origins to education – recreation programs conducted in Knott and Perry counties, Kentucky by Katherine Pettit and May Stone during the summers of 1899-1901. They were funded by the Kentucky Federation of Women’s Clubs and were aided by a group of women from urban areas. Programs were held in Hazard-1899 (Camp Cedar Grove), Hindman-1900 (Camp Industrial), and Sassafras in Knott County-1901. Working in large tents, they offered classes in sewing, cooking, housekeeping, health and child care. They organized nurseries, taught Sunday school, and hosted evening socials for young people and adults.
These summer programs resulted in local citizens requesting Pettit and Stone to establish a permanent school in the region. The Hindman location was chosen, and on August 5, 1902, Hindman Settlement School officially opened with funding from the Women’s Christian Temperance Union. Katherine Pettit and May Stone became the first Executive Committee of the school. The Settlement School remained under the sponsorship of the Kentucky WCTU until 1915. In that year, it was formally incorporated as a private, non-profit, non-sectarian, and non-denominational corporation. Its purpose was to “found, establish, carry on and maintain a school or schools for industrial, intellectual and moral training; to educate the youth of both sexes in habits of sobriety in the mountainous, destitute or needy portions of the State of Kentucky.” From the beginning, the Hindman philosophy and purpose included a positive emphasis on regional traditions and cultural identity.
In order to accomplish their objectives, the school administration and staff developed an extensive curriculum and physical plant. The curriculum combined academic subjects with manual arts, home economics, agriculture, art, music, and folk art. The initial (1902) three acres and two buildings expanded into a physical plant that at various times included a high school, grade school, kindergarten, library, manual arts training shop, model farm, dairy, timber area - sawmill, hospital, and dormitories.
The settlement school staff extended their efforts into the community with programs such as a bookmobile, medical clinics, and recreational activities. A particularly successful health care effort was the Trachoma treatment program organized by Dr. Joseph A. Stucky and Harriet Butler, which resulted in ridding the area of that serious eye disease. The school’s Fireside Industries encouraged and promoted traditional arts and crafts by providing a sales outlet for items made by students and local residents. The school encouraged creative writing about area people and culture by providing a home and jobs for such writers as Ann Cobb and Lucy Furman, and James Still.
As a non-profit corporation, Hindman Settlement School has relied upon financial support by private sources from Kentucky and beyond. Local citizens supported the school with either money or services. Students paid minimal tuition, if they could afford it, and participated in a labor program, which provided work experience and helped to offset the cost of maintaining school grounds. Quite early (c. 1910), the Knott County Board of Education began cooperating with the settlement school by providing funds for school buildings. By the forties, the board was paying teacher salaries. From the outset, Hindman Settlement School was meant to support, rather than displace free public education. As the Knott County Public School System consolidated and assumed complete responsibility for educating the area’s young people (mid 1950’s) and as new roads made boarding facilities unnecessary (1960-early 70s), the school administration redirected its program. Currently, the school hires and provides room and board for art, music, and adult education teachers who conduct classes in the public schools. A public library and community center are located on the school grounds. Hindman Settlement School continues to promote Appalachian culture through various community activities, seminars, lectures, and workshops such as the yearly Appalachian Writers Workshop and the Appalachian Family Folk Week.

The Hindman Settlement School Records includes records of the school dating from the earliest work of Katherine Pettit and May Stone (summers of 1899-1901) to the last year of Raymond McLain’s tenure as Settlement School Director (1971). Some files contain post –1971 material, but that material is fragmentary and rare. In all, the years 1899-1971 are documented by correspondence, financial records, board meeting minutes and treasurers’ reports to the board; newsletters, brochures, newspaper articles, pamphlets, and other publications; and a file of ballads and folksongs. Even so, the collection is not complete, as there are record gaps in the areas of directors’ files, student case files, and personnel records.
Documentation for the pre-incorporation years (prior to 1902) exist in the form of detailed records or “diaries” that report the activities and impressions of Katherine Pettit, May Stone, and others as they established and ran Camp Industrial at Hindman (summer, 1900) and Sassafras (summer, 1901). Also supporting the pre-incorporation record are various reports and papers such as “Kentucky Mountain Folk” (February 1899) by Katherine Pettit and typescripts of important pre-1900 historical events relating to Knott County.
Post-incorporation records include newsletters and brochures (1902-1979) which report the activities and concerns of the staff and student body and give an overview of the school’s general administrative policies and operational procedures. The financial records (audit reports, ledgers, and miscellaneous reports), board meeting minutes, and treasurers’ reports to the board complete and strengthen the historical record for the years covering 1920-71. Although pre-1920 board meeting minutes and financial ledgers kept by May Stone are included in the collection, other documentation for the years 1902-1920 is minimal. A series of fires at the settlement school between the years 1902-1914 most likely account for the paucity of early records. The general correspondence file (1902-1971) is routine and offers more information on the latter years, particularly the early fifties through the mid-sixties period.
Other important non-operational records of the Hindman Settlement School Collection are ballads, folksongs and the material which documents staff and student activities and creative ventures. Of particular importance is a collection of poetry written by Ann Cobb, teacher and poet, who taught at Hindman for over forty-five years. In addtion to this, the collection includes the work of other well known writers associated with the school, such as Josiah Combs, Lucy Furman, and James Still. Also included are a few student and alumni writings ranging from basic classroom assignments to more sophisticated work, such as Una Ritchie’s one-act plays. Furthermore, the collection contains newspaper clippings and other publications giving biographical information on various staff members as well as data on various families from Knott County. Lastly, documentation of the Hindman Settlement School is supported by publications generated from outside the school, specifically newspapers and clippings, magazines and journals, and pamphlets discussing the school as well as broader subjects important to Appalachian sudies.
The manuscript collection is divided into five series: 1. Narrative Reports and Publications, 1879-1979; 2. Operational and Vital Records, 1902-75; 3. Biographies and Works, 1900-80; 4. Ballads and Folksongs; 5. Appalachian Studies Reference File, 1902-75.
This series consists of narrative reports, pamphlets, brochures, and flyers—those publications generated by the Hindman Settlement School staff and student body. The emphasis and detail of each publication vary from that of the simple promotional flyer, to the “Dear Friends” newsletter, a more sophisticated reporting and promotional method. Also included are copies of the Mountain Echo (1924-1930), a pamphlet that provided a forum for school announcements, reports, and creative writing efforts. Copies of student newspapers produced in the thirties and forties are also a part of this series.
The narrative reports and daily records of the social settlements (summers, 1900-1901), documents generated by Katherine Pettit and May Stone, chronicle the settlement work activities and the observations and impressions of life in the mountains during the years prior to the school’s incorporation date in 1902. The language, reporting method, and tone of these documents reveal their function as formal daily records, not intimate personal diaries, and point to their possible use as a report, or the basis for a report to the sponsoring organization, the Kentucky Federation of Women’s Clubs.
The “Diary of Experiences in the Kentucky Mountains, Summers of 1899-1901” can be described as being an anthology of important historical records which includes duplicates of the original daily records of the social settlements (1900-1901). This record also gives information on Camp Cedar Grove (the summer social settlement of 1899), the founding of Knott County (typescript copied from the Louisville Commercial July 8, 1885), the “Traveling Library in the Mountains of Kentucky” (a ten-page description of activities and expenses, 1899), and other historical writings. The “Notebook of Historical and Promotional Writings,” c. 1949, is an even more general and varied anthology and includes reports on the Hindman Settlement School program, genealogical data and other historical documentation. To some extent, it also duplicates other source material. Despite duplication in the record, each unit was microfilmed in its entirety in order to avoid possible confusion and to present the complete scope and subjects of the individual source document.

This series consists of publications, correspondence, and the writings of staff, students, and other individuals associated with the Hindman Settlement School. Also included in this series are genealogical data of various families from Knott County, miscellaneous short histories of Hindman, and a guest book listing visitors to the school for the period 1911-1948.
Of particular interest are a collection of poems by Ann Cobb and the works of Josiah Combs, Lucy Furman, Raymond McLain, Katherine Pettit, James Still, May Stone, and Elizabeth Watts. For the most part, this file does not begin to adequately reflect the intellectual creativity of these people but is only a sampling of their work. Specifically, the file consists of published creative writing pieces, papers on the settlement school and related topics, and unpublished essays and reports.
Additionally, this series also consists of student writings in the form of classroom assignments on the history of the school or biographies of key persons associated with Hindman. There are however, a few examples of creative writing done by Hindman Students and alumni; for example the series includes two plays, written by Una Ritchie, entitled A Homespun Romance, n.d. and A Mountain Play in One Act, n.d. (Una Ritchie also wrote the anniversary pageant. See Series II.)
Supporting materials include newspaper clippings giving biographical information on various staff and some correspondence files of staff and visitors to Hindman. Additional biographical data may be gleaned from the personal reminiscences of staff and students; for example, an entire portion of the Elizabeth Watts documentation deals with a celebration given in her honor on May 17, 1980. As part of this event, Miss Watts and alumni provided statements about their work and experiences at Hindman. This series is arranged alphabetically, with guest book, genealogies, and brief histories on the Hindman Settlement School at the end of the Series.

This series documents the ballad and folksong collection efforts of Hindman Settlement School. Specifically, the article by Raymond McLain entitled “Folk Music at Hindman” describes the school’s role in ballad collecting and discusses the origin of some of the ballads. The record does not, however, indicate which or how many of these songs were collected from the Hindman area, and which were learned from staff, visitors to the school, or other ballad collections. Some of the ballads and folksongs are part of Josephine McGill’s Folk Songs of the Kentucky Mountains. McGill’s collecting efforts in the Hindman area were done under the auspices of the school. Furthermore, Cecil Sharp’s English Folksongs from the Southern Appalachians includes works which are also found in the Hindman Collection.
In addition, this series includes international folksongs and religious songs. Most likely this music was brought into the area by school staff or visitors. The “Song Notebook,” n.d. consists of forty-one ballads, folksongs, and religious songs. The songs are marked with various unidentified abbreviated notations. While the meaning of the abbreviations is unknown, two of them (CS) and (JMC) probably refer to Cecil Sharp and Josephine McGill. Lastly, an index of songs completes the ballad and folksong collection. Although not comprehensive, it does indicate the type of music collected and/or sung at Hindman.
This series is arranged by song type and then alphabetically within that arrangement. Frequently, the title of a well-known ballad from a published source differs from the title given by the settlement school collector or transcriber. In an effort to improve access to the ballad collection, the published title has been penciled in and the song then filed under that title (for example Hindman’s “Little Sparrow” is filed under the familiar, “Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies).
