There is a road in Fayette County called Betty Knox Road. It is named for a settler who lived in Fayette County by Kentuck and Tharp knobs around the Revolutionary War who disappeared along with her ox. Betty was never found. The gruesome discovery of the ox's skeleton tied to a tree years later left only more questions for those who searched for the woman. Now, if you go to a certain place along the road, you may hear the mournful cry of the ox and hear someone calling, "Betty Knox! Betty Knox!"
