Locust Grove and George Rogers Clark
1790
Louisville, Kentucky

The Georgian house where the founder of Louisville, George Rogers Clark, lived out his last broken years, bankrupt, one leg gone, the state that owed him for winning the Northwest unwilling to pay. His younger brother William stopped here with Meriwether Lewis in 1806 on the way home from the Pacific, to report to the old man in the parlour. Three presidents were guests. It stood as a working farm until the 1960s.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
