Early History of Vine Grove, Kentucky
Vine Grove, Kentucky is a small town located at the northern end of Hardin County, just a short drive from Louisville and Fort Knox.
Though it had an early settlement, the town grew up and developed along the railroad, which provided both a stimulus and vehicle for that growth.
These pages contain the basic story of its early years of development and the excitement of those changing times. The same basic story was reenacted numerous times in small towns throughout Kentucky and America's Heartland. It is the story of farmers and small businessmen, their enterprise, their faith and hope.
The little over one hundred years detailed here covers some of the big inventions and industrial developments which helped bring America into the modern age. The building of the railroad was only the beginning. The coming of electricity and the telephone, the transition from the local live performances to the coming of the motion picture are all seen here from a rural Kentucky perspective.
Relive the tragedy of war and its effect on small town America. The local people who gave unselfishly of their energies, crops and in some cases their lives to see that we have the freedoms we enjoy today.
In essence this is the history of America, as told in a condensed form in one small Kentucky community.
