The Peacock Distillery |
The Peacock was located 1/2-mile east of Kiserton on the KY Central RR. The following timeline comes from Cecil (1999: p. 57) 1857: The distillery was built by H C Bowen. 1869: Bowen's son assumed control. 1890: The distillery was sold to parties in Cincinnati: presumably this was the Peacock Distillery Co. found in city directories. 1892: Insurance underwriter records suggest that the distillery was built of stone with a metal or slate roof. The property included an iron-clad boiler house 10 ft from the still, and a cattle barn. There were two warehouses: 1902: The distillery was sold to the Trust. 1905: KD&W -- an arm of the Trust -- installed two new boilers and roller mills. 1911: The distillery was acquired by the H E Pogue distillery. 1916: The plant was scrapped. |
