"Black" John Nickell
"Black" John Nickell-son of Joseph Nickell of VA., who came to Madison County, Ky., about 1789. John moved from Mt. Sterling,KY to Morgan Co., Ky., 1802. Cabin home built two miles southeast of present Hazel Green. Two sons were Joseph and Andrew. Near the mouth of a ravine "Black" John Nickell felled a number of saplings and built a little log cabin. As this was temporary headquarters he did not hew the small logs but notched them so that there were no large cracks; and since there was only the earth floor, the walls were slightly higher than the top of the head. Within a short time, the crude structure was ready for the poles, brush and cane-brake which would keep out the wild animals and most of the rain. That family was literally lord of all they surveyed but there was no time to waste. And within a short time all members of that industrious family were busily and enthusiastically engaged in constructing a more commodious and more comfortable log house and preparing for the long lonesome months of winter.
