Friends, Seems as if the WebWorms ate Part 5 again. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that it starts with a double tab. I know Rootsweb can be a bit fussy about what looks to be spam. So............Here comes resend 2 of Part 5, but without the double tab. Here's hoping! Dean

Often times, in our rushing days, we do not stop to say "thank you" to our fellow mankind. Today I would like to say "thank you" to Sandi for all her wonderful postings. I don't know how she is able to do all of them! ..and it makes me wonder what "goodies" she is going to come up with next. Sandi, please know you are very much appreciated. Wayne Walker in Louisville

That does it for today. I might do Thursday's post (Hart Co) early as I'll be off line Thursday and Friday. One of my daughters is coming home this week to give me an assist thankfully. Charlie has posted the puzzler for the week and you can click on the URL in my signature line called gensoup to give it a try. You might have a few extra days on this puzzler; it might run 2 weeks based on how quickly I can safely look at a monitor again. Have a great week; I'll be back tomorrow on the SCKY list for more Monroe Co newspaper tidbits.

M. Dean Hunt is to be congratulated on the fine posting of Cave City. I find the postings to be very interesting and entertaining. Thanks, Dean, for a job well done! Wayne Walker in Louisville

Not so far as I know. This just came to me - 10:04 PM EST, and we're on Daylight Saving Time. Mail does seem to have been slow today, but I have not heard of any problem.

Friends, I have no idea what has happened to Parts 3 and 5 of the posts. Part 3 came back to me, but apparently no one else got it. Part 5 never came back to me (yet) so I assume it disappeared into the ether. So........I have resent them. If any of you get the posts twice, sorry! M. Dean Hunt Louisville, KY

Some of the men who gave Cave City a start were George T. Middleton, Daniel and Price Curd, Judge C. Roberts, Dr. E. M. Hatcher, N. T. Rogers, R. C. Hazelip, Joe Quigley, A. McCoy, R. L. Jolly, Dr. Ed Williams and W. L. Wilson. During the Seventies, Eighties and Nineties such men as Martin Dickey, "Billy" Neville, Albert Duke, Soloman Martin, George Smith, "Dink" Owens, Elkanah Dickey, H. Y. Davis, G. T. Tucker, J. Cope Walton, Dr. W. E. Garnett, "Buck" Shaw, Alphonso Whitney, E. W. Curd, S. J. Preston, W. T. Bush, "Billy" Wells, Samuel Davis, father of H. Y. Davis, Pouncey Nuckols, Jackie and Joseph Parker, R. M. Sanderson, B. B. Duke, Senior, Thomas King, Cyrus Mosby, others were prominent in the business and social life ot the town and community. Pouncey Nuckols was the grandfather of Mr. J. R. Nuckols, Miss Lelia Nuckols, and Mrs. O. P. Owens. He resided on the farm now owned by Mr. H. R. Amos. Jackie and Joseph Parked [typo, should be Parker] lived where Mr. Ike Owens now resides. Samuel Davis resided where Mr. N. B. Eubank now lives. Albert Duke lived where Rev. W. J. Puckett now resides. Mr. G. T. Gardner, deceased, came to Cave City in 1868 and lived here until his death. Mr.Gardner was one of the most useful men ever in Cave City and helped build the E. M. Ford and H. P. Curd homes -- all weather-boarding and flooring being planed and dressed by hand. Mr. Gardner also built many other of the older homes in and near Cave City. Mr. R. L. Jolly came to Cave City in the Spring of 1866 and was influential in the life of the town for many years thereafter. (To be continued) M. Dean Hunt Louisville, KY

One of the most colorful figures in Cave City years ago was Adolphus Franks. Mr. Franks and wife resided on First Street about where Handy and Reynolds coal bin now is. When oil was discovered near Glasgow years ago it was hauled to Cave City in barrels and unloaded into a tank that stood where E. T. Ford's warehouse now is. Mr. Franks pumped this oil from the tank into railroad tank cars by hand. The seepage from the tank was said to have ruined one of the finest water wells in town which was in the street near the corner of Hotel Dixie Garden across the street from the oil tank. The first water well dug in Cave City was dug by Jack Gavin, an Irishman, in the year 1865 just below the North end of the park and almost on a line with the center of Duke Street. The second water well was dug by the same man in 1873 or '74 at the Southwest end of the freight depot. The Cave City Baptist Church was originally "New Hope Baptist Church." The New Hope Baptist Church stood on the farm of Mr. Charlie Monroe about one mile East of Jennie, Ky. The plot was deeded to the church by Matthew and Polly Crews on the 31st day March, 1820. This deed is of record in Deed Book "1;" Page 267, Barren County Clerk's Office. The above church became a part of the Cave City Baptist Church when the latter church was organized in March 1867. For a number of years the Baptist congregation worshipped in the old Presbyterian meeting house but in 1879 it was decided to buy a suitable lot and erect their own church building. Mr. Elkanah Dickey has preserved the original subscription for the first Baptist Church building in Cave City and the following is quoted from the above mentioned list: (To be continued) M.

Cave City took its name from the cave within the limits of the town through which runs a small creek and where the water system of the L&N Railroad is located. This sink and creek was originally known as "Sink Hole Spring" and in 1860 was the only water supply of the town. The Cave City post-office was established in January 1860 and Beverly D. Curd was the first post-master. The office was moved from Woodland, where the Piatt home now is about a mile North of Cave City, and the Woodland post-office was established in 1850 with Wilson Ritter as post-master. The late B. B. Duke, Senior, and the late S. S. Martin, who are remembered by most adults of Cave City, cultivated the land where the business section of the town now stands when it was farm land. Both of these men were veterans of the War Between the States. The first mercantile establishment in Cave City was built and occupied by two brothers -- B. D. and H. P. Curd, ancestors of the Curd family in this community. Mr. D. T. Curd states that he was told quite young that when the timbers for this store building were hauled into town from near Flint Knob that corn was being gathered all along where the business section now is. This building was erected on the corner of First and Kirby where the Peoples Bank Building now stands. The second person to enter the mercantile business in Cave City was Judge C. Roberts and Judge Roberts was the first to build a residence in Cave City. He built the home now owned and occupied by Mrs. Fannie Curd Davis and this residence is, therefore, the oldest in Cave City. The S. J. Preston home, now owned by Mrs. Ella Jameson, was built about 1868. The Preston home was built by John White, a contractor of Horse Cave. Just East of the Preston home is the old H. P. Curd home, now owned by the writer, and built about the same time. O. F. Curd, Glasgow, and Mrs. Lizzie Curd Tucker were born in this house. Mrs. Fannie Stark Williams, mother of W. T. Williams, Jeffersonville, and Mrs. Ida Dickey Creel, deceased, conducted a boarding house in this home before her marriage to Mr. Elkanah Dickey. Another old Cave City home is the one owned by Mr. Elkanah Dickey. This residence was built by Thomas Quigley, one of the Knob City Land Company, for a summer home. Mr. Dickey bought this place from H. V. Loving, executor of Thomas Quigley, in the year 1876 and has owned and occupied it continuously ever since. (To be continued) M. Dean Hunt Louisville, KY

(Most of the material in this article was obtained from the writings of the late Judge H. Y. Davis, the scrap-books of the late Mr. S. B. Davis and from conversations with Mr. D. T. Curd and Mr. Elkanah Dickey.) A comprehensive history of Cave City would require the writing of a book. Within the limits of a brief article it is possible to merely touch upon some of the outstanding points in its history. The site upon which Cave City stands was acquired in October 1853 by the Knob City Land Company - which company was composed of Messrs. Graham, Quigly, Adams, and Hopson, all of whom were Louisville men and who envisioned the place as a resort town due to its proximity to Mammoth Cave. 200 acres of the original site was acquired by James Perry by land grant in the year 1798. In 1811 Henry Roundtree, as assignee of James Perry, in consideration of the sum of $190.00, deeded the tract to John Owens who was the ancestor of the Owens family in this section. John Owens added 142½ acres to the tract. After his death his executor sold the 342½ acres to Thomas T. Duke for the consideration of $1,732.00. Thomas T. Duke was the grandfather of Mr. B. B. Duke of Cave City. Thomas T. Duke, in turn, sold the entire tract to the Knob City Land Company. Duke received $6,850.00 for the land, or $20.00 per acre, and that price set a record for land sales in Barren County to that date. The company surveyed and laid off the town site, the main streets being 80 feet wide, and began to sell lots about the time the L&N Railroad was finished through the County. The first train ran through Cave City in 1859. Prior to that time the old time stage coach was the means of transportation and coaches ran regularly through Cave City from Louisville to Nashville over what is now known as U. S. Highway 31-W. A stage coach line from Cave City to Mammoth Cave was operated for many years by the late Andrew McCoy. In November 1900, Mr. McCoy, testifying in the celebrated water works case in Cave City, stated that he came to Cave City in March 1860 and gave his occupation as "staging and hotel." He further stated that he operated stage lines from Cave City to Mammoth Cave and from Cave City to Glasgow; that he operated the hotel in Cave City from 12 to 15 years; that the hotel was opened in 1859 and the railroad completed in that same year. Mr. McCoy went on to say! that when he came here in 1860 there were only about two families living in town - one at the hotel and one this side and that no one was operating the hotel at the time he bought it.

Hello Friends, It was an important year for me, 1936. Kentucky was still in the throes of the "Great Depression" when I was born 70 years ago now. Even now I still recall some images of that time, with my parents struggling to survive and put food on the table. Recently, I came accross an article that appeared in The Glasgow Times, written June 9, 1936, I believe it was, by Mr. Earle Dickey. Let me test your memory - how many of you remember Earle Dickey? So, for your enjoyment and edification, (sounds so important, doesn't it) I am going to make a series of posts of this article over the next week or so. I hope you find it as interesting as I did in reading it. I plan to number each post so that it will be easier to keep it all in order. M. Dean Hunt Louisville, KY
