Howell speaks at Ancestral Trails Historical Society meeting

Ancestral Trails Historical Society met earlier this month, when Carl Howell presented a program on “Post Offices and Post Marks.” He said there are 7,730 post offices in Kentucky, mentioning several in Hardin County and the years they opened and closed. The years of 1905 to 1915 were the golden years for post cards. Beverly Heath will presented the program at the next meeting, Nov. 2. She will discuss when LaRue County went dry, alcohol in a dry county and moonshine.
