Nelson County
Bardstown, KY
Longitude: -85.4262169
Latitude: 37.8522189
Historical Significance:
Colonel Isaac Cox and his party of settlers established the station in 1752, but its site had never been determined. We were able to prove where it was by maps and historical documents and the stone springhouse was the only structure left. The water courses on the old map show the definite site, along with a drawing of 4 cabins and stockade. The map was dated 1803, along with its historical documentation.
Who is Buried Here:
Cemetery was located here as evidence of 1880 ATLAS. It no longer remains. We believe Col. Isaac Cox is buried here.
