Joseph Desha
Joseph Desha (December 9, 1768 – October 11, 1842) was a U.S. Representative and the ninth governor of the U.S. state of Kentucky.
After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, Desha's Huguenot ancestors fled from France to Pennsylvania, where Desha was born.
Eventually, Desha's family settled near present-day Gallatin, Tennessee, where they were involved in many skirmishes with the Indians.
Two of Desha's brothers were killed in these encounters, motivating him to volunteer for "Mad" Anthony Wayne's campaign against the Indians during the Northwest Indian War.
Having by then resettled in Mason County, Kentucky, Desha parlayed his military record into several terms in the state legislature.
In 1807, Desha was elected to the first of six consecutive terms in the U.S. House of Representatives.
A Democratic-Republican, he was considered a war hawk, supporting the War of 1812.
In 1813, he volunteered to serve in the war and commanded a division at the Battle of the Thames.
Returning to Congress after the war, he was the only member of the Kentucky congressional delegation to oppose the unpopular Compensation Act of 1816.
Nearly every other member of the delegation was defeated for reelection after the vote, but Desha's opposition to the act helped him retain his seat.
He did not seek reelection in 1818, and made an unsuccessful run for governor in 1820, losing to John Adair.
By 1824, the Panic of 1819 had ruined Kentucky's economy, and Desha made a second campaign for the governorship almost exclusively on promises of relief for the state's large debtor class.
He was elected by a large majority, and debt relief partisans captured both houses of the General Assembly.
After the Kentucky Court of Appeals overturned debt relief laws favored by Desha and the majority of the legislature, the legislators abolished the court and created a replacement court, to which Desha appointed several debt relief partisans.
The existing court refused to acknowledge the legitimacy of the move, and during a period known as the Old Court – New Court controversy, two courts of last resort existed in the state.
Although popular when elected, Desha's reputation was damaged by two controversies during his term.
The first was his role in the ouster of Horace Holley as president of Transylvania University.
While the religious conservatives on the university's board opposed Holley because they considered him too liberal, Desha's opposition was primarily based on Holley's friendship with Henry Clay, one of Desha's political enemies.
After Desha bitterly denounced Holley in an address to the legislature in late 1825, Holley resigned.
Desha's reputation took a further hit after his son, Isaac, was charged with murder.
Partially because of Desha's influence as governor, two guilty verdicts were overturned.
After the younger Desha unsuccessfully attempted suicide while awaiting a third trial, Governor Desha issued a pardon for his son.
These controversies, along with an improving economy, propelled Desha's political foes to victory in the legislative elections of 1825 and 1826.
They abolished the so-called "Desha court" over Desha's veto, ending the court controversy.
In a final act of defiance, Desha threatened to refuse to vacate the governor's mansion, although he ultimately acquiesced without incident, ceding the governorship to his successor, National Republican Thomas Metcalfe.
At the expiration of his term, he retired from public life and ultimately died at his son's home in Georgetown, Kentucky, on October 11, 1842.

Isaac B. Desha
Isaac Bledsoe Desha (January 1, 1802 – August 13, 1828) was a 19th-century American tanner who was convicted of murdering one man in Kentucky, and confessed to murdering another in Texas.
He was notable as the son of the Kentucky Governor, Joseph Desha.
Shortly after his father's election as governor in 1824, Desha was accused of robbing and killing a man named Francis Baker, who was passing through Kentucky.
Circumstantial evidence implicated Desha, who denied the crime.
Given the heated political environment of the Old Court-New Court controversy, allies of his father claimed that the governor's political enemies had framed his son.
The governor's legislative allies passed legislation providing for a favorable change of venue for the trial, and the governor used his appointment power to ensure that sympathetic judges would hear the case.
Isaac Desha was twice convicted, but both times, the judge in the case set aside the verdict on procedural grounds.
While awaiting a third trial, Desha attempted suicide by slitting his throat, but doctors saved his life, reconnecting his severed windpipe with a silver tube.
Shortly after the suicide attempt, Governor Desha issued a pardon for his son.
Isaac Desha left Kentucky and assumed an alias.
He went to New Orleans.
From there, he traveled with a man named Thomas Early to San Antonio, Texas.
When Early went missing during their travels, Desha fell under suspicion.
A former Kentuckian living in Texas recognized Desha.
Arrested soon after Early's body was found, Desha confessed to the murder after being recognized by a second man from Kentucky.
A day before his trial was to start, Desha died of a fever.
A legend soon arose that he had faked his death and fled to Hawaii, where he married a native woman and fathered several children.
Later historians have debunked that myth.
