Notes for Nehemiah M. Webb:
The following is from the "Journalism Hall of Fame" on the University of Kentucky website:

Nehemiah M. Webb

Founder of the Mountain Eagle in Whitesburg, Letcher County, in 1903, at a time when 24 contiguous head-water counties in Eastern Kentucky had no printing press. Born on a mountain farm in 1865, attended a log cabin school learning land surveying. Taught school for several years. Struggled against terrible odds to start his paper in an area where most people were illiterate, roads were nearly impassable and travel was mainly by horseback. Once commented, "I started life as a poor farmer, became a poor surveyor and then a poor school teacher, and now I am a poor newspaperman!" Was first Kentucky mountain journalist to have photograph displayed in Library of Congress. Served eight years as postmaster of Whitesburg during the terms of President Woodrow Wilson. Credited with helping improve economic and educational conditions in Letcher County, especially after the opening of coal fields and coming of railroad in 1912. Started the Neon News about 1926. Continued to write for papers after reorganization forced by bankruptcy during the depression. Died July 30, 1945.
