  After 79 years of calling Woodford County its base of operations, the Kentucky United Methodist Homes for Children & Youth plans to move to neighboring Jessamine County. This past summer the nonprofit corporation that cares for abused, neglected or abandoned children purchased nearly 31 acres on Ashgrove Road in northern Jessamine for $915,000 from David and Alta Marshall. The property is just south of Brannon Crossing shopping center off U.S. 27.
