If you’re like me, you’ve always assumed that Kentucky Fried Chicken founder, Harland Sanders, was born and grew up in Kentucky. But he was actually born at Henryville, Indiana! He worked there, Greenwood, Indianapolis, New Albany, Jeffersonville and Columbus before he became a household name and world famous! This is the Colonel Sanders story you’ve never heard!

I rode on an airplane twice with the Colonel in the early 70's. He was a nice man. I also live in Clark County ( Henryville,)

@richardrogerson2383 Год назад

My family knew him. As Paul Harvy said, "this is the reast of the story". Moral of the story, never give up.

@AdventureswithRoger Год назад

I have retold myself his story, of being retirement age and could’ve ended his story there, but got some guts and changed his life and the world. He is practically worshipped in Japan!

@mrbr549 2 года назад

What an extraordinary life he led! I can't imagine how a kid that young could do the things he accomplished. A kid of five taking over a household just blows my mind.

@AdventureswithRoger 2 года назад

I was thinking about how could a 5 year old take care of himself, let alone two younger siblings! His mother had no choice to go to work, but today child protective services would’ve taken the kids. Such a tragic beginning, and then he left home for good after his mom married someone he couldn’t stand. He had no childhood. Makes me appreciate the Mother and childhood I had.

@AdventureswithRoger Год назад

After I published, I had a few people tell local stories about him. One was that he ate at a Corydon restaurant, and was so impressed with their cole slaw, that he asked to speak with the cook. They had a short conversation and he asked if he could get the recipe. For free, he got the cole slaw recipe that would end up in KFCs across the world!

@jasonrodgers9063 Год назад

When I was in High School, I had a part time job running my grandmother's parking lot in downtown Louisville. The Colonel parked there a few times, to go to a business meeting in a nearby office. One of my best friends bought a 1974 VW Karmann Ghia from the Colonel's personal aide, that she used to drive him around in. Picture that! Colonel Sanders (in full white suit) getting out of the passenger door of a baby-blue Karmann Ghia!

Lee Cummings another chicken restaurant chain owner who was Harlan Sanders nephew was also from area. My grandfather was related to Sanders and was a lawyer in Henryville who grew up in Henryville in early 1900s ..told me when I was young that Sanders was a scoundrel as a young man and into bootlegging in his early days...doesn't look like the hit the official recall of life :-)...Like you stated he made a success of his life...

@sandyhaworth4181 Год назад

Did you know him and his family went to Mt Moriah Baptist Church just outside Henryville? He donated to that church. During the massive tornadoes in 2012, the original church was destroyed. They built across the road.

@AdventureswithRoger Год назад

I had not heard either. The one local story I heard, was that he was at a Corydon restaurant (same area where Flip Daddy’s is now), and really liked their coleslaw. He asked to speak to the cook, which happened to be the owner. He complimented the owner, and asked for the recipe. The colonel took the recipe and it became part of the KFC menu! 🙂

@ViralTuber 2 года назад

Another great video! I remember seeing Harland Sanders with my own eyes once, at the Indianapolis 500 Festival Parade probably around 1973. ...I also admit to reading a book my mom had about Claudia Sanders. Was a decent read, lol. I honestly think I learned "Thursday" because that was the day the Colonel's 2-piece snack was on sale. Not even kidding. That's important information to a very little kid who's favorite food is the Colonel's chicken. He seemed extraordinarily honest and forthright, if you watch old clips or read old quotes.

@ViralTuber 2 года назад

Marion Kay spices (supplier of KFC spices back in the day) used to sell "Claudia Sanders Chicken Seasoning", which I made a point to buy every year at the Indiana Sate Fair, where Marion Kay always had a vendor booth. They no longer offer a blend with her name on it.

@AdventureswithRoger 2 года назад

Thank-you! From researching for the segment, I got the sense that he really cared about quality. He and his wife Claudia once drove about a thousand miles, round trip, to meet with a potential franchisee. After he looked at the place, he turned around without even talking to them: if they didn’t take pride in what the restaurant looked like, how could they care about maintaining a quality food offering to customers? The original gravy recipe was changed by the company, that bought KFC, citing that Harland’s process practically took a chemistry degree. He was very particular! I’m hoping to visit Claudia Sanders Dinner House, to see if the gravy and chicken are any different from KFC’s today. Supposedly, all the recipes are exactly original!

Thank-you, Ken! Harland Sanders is the ultimate come back story. Facing a small social security check, and failed business, he could have accepted his fate, sat in front of a tv screen until he died, and no one would remember him today: just a name and two dates. But he refused to accept what most people would have. I have thought of him often, when I don’t see a way out of things I face, and say, “No, this is not how my story ends.” 🙂

He cussed like a sailor, but was said to have a soft spot for children and babies. I think it had to do with knowing what it was like to be alone as a child, after his dad died and mother had to work at a cannery.

@tsf5-productions Год назад

Wow! I didn't remember that "the Colonel " was a native Hoosier! I got a hardback book of his biography way back in 1974 while I was in college (LaGrange College in Georgia). I should reread it. And, I love the "original recipe " KFC. Seems to taste better to me. So give me a small bucket of that good stuff! I'll eat it all!

@AdventureswithRoger Год назад

There is a cool place in Kentucky called “Claudia Sanders Dinner House”. It looks like a Southern mansion. Colonel Sanders wife continued the restaurant business there, with his original recipes, despite him selling those rights to what would become Yum Brands. Supposedly, the recipes are the truly original ones, not modified to be cheaper to produce. There was a large lawsuit, but the colonel prevailed. I’ve ate there several times, it’s pretty good if you like Southern home cooking.

Do you know the name of the tomato cannery his mom worked at? I wonder if it was tied into the morgan packing company in austin.

@AdventureswithRoger 2 года назад

I couldn’t find a name or location of the cannery. It sounded like it was just far enough away, to make it impossible to be close to the kids. Austin isn’t that far away, but it is without a car.

@furgulley8077 2 года назад

@@AdventureswithRoger after thinking some the timeline might be just a little off. Morgan packing company (now morgan foods) was founded in 1899. I have family that retired from there and thought it would be fascinating if there was a connection. They used to have canning plants spread around in other locations like scottsburg and brownstown. I dont think thats the case considering the transportation issue.

@AdventureswithRoger 2 года назад

Some of your ancestors may have worked side by side with Mrs Sanders! The folks over at the Scott County Heritage Center might have some insights.

@patriciaberry4630 Год назад

Fur. If it was it would be in Austin, Indiana. Next to Scottsburg. They had a canning 🏭 there. Close to Hardy Lake. I believe it was the Morgan canning co.

@leskobrandon691 Год назад

To think I'm from Greenwood & never knew he had lived there as a child. What's ironic is when the KFC opened at the corner of Co. Line Road & SR 135 or S. Meridian Street in Greenwood around 1972 I want to say, I met Col. Sanders at the grand opening of that store.

@AdventureswithRoger Год назад

Colonel Sanders, Jonathan Byrd, and Dave Thomas (Wendy’s) were tight, did many KFC franchises before doing their own thing. It’s just ironic that there are no historical markers of where Colonel Sanders lived, in Greenwood, despite how famous he became.

@hollyweber6597 2 года назад

Thank you Rodger what a wonderful documentary on the colonel. I have always heard that Harlan lived in Greenwood but wasn’t for sure . do you know where he lived in Greenwood? I worked for Jonathan Byrd for 39 years. Jonathan‘s father Carl I believe was number three or number four franchise owner and I had often wondered if they knew each other before the Colonel started selling his chicken do you know where he lived in Greenwood?

@AdventureswithRoger 2 года назад

Hey Holly! One of the best friends I ever had worked for Mr Byrd, at the cafeteria, many years ago, you might have known him: Dean Rainey. I used to hear about their conversations in the office over there, Dean thought he was great! Every place I looked, there is no mention of where Harland lived in Greenwood as a boy, or even the farm where he worked. Living in Greenwood for over 33 years, I know that most of the farms were sold to developers and now modern homes are there. That is except for the one on Main Street, close to Meijer. I once lived next to the field by the church and spoke to the farmer: the deed was signed by President Jackson! At any rate, Harland never lived in Greenwood again, after leaving as a boy. He did keep many connections with Indiana people, made lots of franchises here, including with Jonathan Byrd’s family and a young Dave Thomas at Fort Wayne, which would go on to create the Wendy’s chain.

@AdventureswithRoger 2 года назад

From all I read, his Cadillac and suits were about the only splurge items he bought. His houses in Louisville and Canada were both fairly small and modest. I was reading how during the civil rights era, he would mess with hotel staff upon arrival. He had a black personal assistant that would ride in the back of the Cadillac, like a celebrity, while Harland was in front with the driver. When they pulled up to the hotel, Harland would get out and take his assistants luggage to the desk, like he was working for him! He got a kick out of seeing the staffs reaction! He was a character.

Ha! To each their own, I guess. Ay Shelbyville, Kentucky, there’s a place called “Claudia Sanders Dinner House.” After the Colonel sold KFC’s American rights (he still owned Canadian KFC), he illegally kept selling food with the original recipes, at his wife’s restaurant. It was a legal battle that he finally won, and you can eat there today, with recipes that haven’t changed in decades. In his lifetime, the Colonel complained that KFC changed his recipes to save money. Claudia’s Sanders Dinner House is a really pleasant southern experience, place looks like a mansion, elegant inside, and the food is good. On Sunday’s they have a buffet, and that’s a great way to sample many things. Their desserts are very fancy, my favorite being the bread pudding!

@privatepilot4064 Год назад

@@AdventureswithRoger I remember that legal battle. I definitely know that recipe changed over the years, you could tell, it just didn’t taste the same. I used to live across the street from a KFC in the late 60s and early 70s and I ate there a lot because it was convenient. It was not unusual to smell the chicken cooking at the house and I never got tired of it.

@AdventureswithRoger Год назад

Lots of fond KFC childhood memories here too. I did a short film about finally making it to the Corbin, Kentucky KFC restaurant. Dad had always wanted to see it, but both he and Mom passed away before they could make it. It has a great museum that they’ve actually expanded since I visited.

@marzellstennis9628 Год назад

It’s Indiana fried chicken then. I’m not happy about that

@AdventureswithRoger Год назад

😀 As long as it’s original recipe, call me anything but late to dinner! Had you ever heard of Claudia Sanders Dinner House in Kentucky? The Colonels wife retained the original recipes for that restaurant. There were some early lawsuits, as they did sell the secret recipes, but ultimately the Colonel and Claudia prevailed. I’ve ate there twice, it’s good if you like country cooking. Service has been excellent. I have no idea why people on Yelp were so negative.
