Dear Researchers of the Lewis County, Kentucky Mailing List, Small communities sometimes have one main industry that is the lifeblood of the village. This could have been the case with Quincy's stone quarry, which was probably worked by the Ohio River Sand and Marble Company. This company was in existence in the 1850's, but I do not know when or exactly where the operation began, or when it ended, although a Dec 1881 Vanceburg newspaper article mentioned the stone quarries at Quincy. The article stated that the Southwestern Railroad was purchasing great quantities of the stone for constructing railroad bridges. Benjamin WOODWORTH was the owner of the land on which the stone quarries were principally located. There was also a steamboat landing at Quincy, called, appropriately enough, Quincy Landing. If you can add any details to this description of the quarries at Quincy, or of the Ohio River Sand and Marble Company, please help! I am renewing my efforts to write a history of the small community of Quincy, Lewis County, Kentucky, motivated by the fact that my third-great grandfather William COOPER lived in Quincy from about 1852 to about 1859, and again from 1865 to about 1876.
