Today is the birthday of Jackie Parson Coffey - happy birthday! This picture was made recently at a Metcalfe County High School girlfriends lunch meeting at the new Gradyville cafe. After high school we went in the directions of Green and Adair Counties for our careers when most of our classmates went to Barren County but we still meet as often as possible. Jackie and her husband Billy Dean Coffee live in the Clay Ridge area of Adair County and will likely be heading out this sunny Sunday morning for services at their Milltown United Methodist Church. - LW Comments | Permalink Jim: The Earliest 'Block Ad' for the Royal Cafe, 1921

An ad appearing late in 1921 gave the location of the Royal Cafe as "south side of the Public Square" and noted the offerings included "candy and grapes, the finest on the market" as well as refreshing beverages, along with a piano player to provide entertainment. No proprietor was named. In the spring of 1922, Mr. Young had surgery and was down for several weeks. By mid-July, he was the Adair County agent for 7th Street Garage, a large used car operation headquartered in Louisville and headed by Adair native C. T. Stults. - Jim Comments | Permalink Older Photos
