Favorite old photo: The Paul Bostons, North Metcalfe Co., KY



2011-12-21 - North Metcalfe Co., KY - Photo from Reba Boston collection.
Paul and Bertha Edwards Boston are photographed in the beautiful oak shaded yard of their home which faced Bill Poynter Road at its intersection with the Sulphur Well-Center Road. Paul Boston was a political power in Metcalfe County. He called his wife "Fat Mama." The house had been the home of his parents. Famous and powerful people often visited at the Boston home, including Governor Lawrence Wetherby, who feasted on a partridge - or 'patterdges' as they were called in those days - prepared by Fat Mama, a cook of wide fame in the Sulphur Well area. She was always concerned for the welfare of all her friends, relatives and acquaintances.
