Facts and Events
Ruby Miller was born in the Blackjack community of Meade County on August 30, 1916. She received her formal education in the public schools of Meade County and graduated from Meade County High school in 1933. She attended Bryan Stratton Business College in Louisville, KY and served as secretary and bookkeepper for the Meade County RECC for about eight years. By the time Don Miller Lamar was born, Ruby and Carl were living in Lexington, KY. Their first home was at Shawneetown on the University of Kentucky. In December, 1955 they moved to their newly built home at 357 Glendover Road in Lexington, KY. Ruby lived in this house until her death in March of 2003. She lived the last two years of her life with her daughter, Carla and her husband, Steve. She still owned the house on Glendover. Don's two boys lived in the house while attending the University of Kentucky. After her death, her granddaughter, Cameron Carroll Ray lived in the house on Glendover until the house was sold in 2005. Ruby's father called her Tade. When she was a small baby, he called her ladybug after a comic strip in the newspaper. The comic called the bug a ladybug. Farm folk commonly called it a 'tader bug'. Hence the name 'Tade'. "When your daddy and I got married, at the opening assembly at the high school where he taught, his basketball team made him ride the rail around the gym floor. This is when they'd get a two by four and make someone straddle it while being carried. Daddy told me he just grinned and beared it!" This was done I guess whenever anyone got married or initiated into something. One Halloween, a bunch of my cohorts, they're all dead now, swiped Roy Neafus' cow and put it in the high school over the entire weekend. It had splattered all up and down the hall. He'd really had a splattering good time. When I was just a little kid in the elementary school, we had outdoor toilets: one for girls and one for boys. The next day after Halloween, you could tell the bathroom services had been discontinued because the outhouse had been turned over. About the funniest sight, when I was just a little baby thing, young elementary, very impressionable age, going up the schoolhouse steps I saw a four wheel buggy that they'd swiped from the blacksmith shop at the top of the hill and put it on the roof of the schoolhouse. We lived on a farm that was on the old highway 60 towards Hardinsburg. Us kids used to take an inner tube and make a chain like rubber bands and tie a white flag in the middle of it so it would hang in the middle of the road. The end of the chain we had a paper white inflated flour sack. We'd stretch it across the road and hide behind the honeysuckles along the fence. When the traffic would come, for fear that it was a wire stretched across the road, they would stop. Because of the white flat. When they got stopped, we would turn loose of the white bag and it would go gloop, gloopety gloop across their windshield. Then we'd give them the razzberry on the old brass trumpet and run for the sinkhole. Then they'd go on. When I was young in the early elementary, most every Halloween night, you'd hear the fifty gallon oil barrels or drums rambling down the street toward the river. (Town Hilll) This was an annual thing. They were taken from the Ford Garage. This went along with the typical soaping of windows.
