A long time coming, considering Fort Knox has been a major player in the history of Hardin, Meade and Bullitt counties since World War I. What makes this book indispensable to the local historian is the pre-Fort Knox history. The families on farms that occupied this land before the military purchased the land are profiled. Genealogists will find genealogical information spread throughout the book as survivors and descendents of families talk about past experiences in interview sessions. Includes a complete cemetery listing, including current maps indicating all locations. Cemetery listings are organized in two different groupings (by cemetery or by name of individual). This should cut down on needless “page flipping”. There are many photographs of people, places and events from the past.
