Home

 

Home: Zachary Taylor House NHL, 5608 Apache Road, Louisville, KY

Visited: 4/21/21

Log Excerpt: "This was the boyhood home of the President, who lived there from 1795 to 1808, held his marriage there in 1810, and returned there periodically the rest of his life. This is in a very upscale neighborhood, and they had a big KY historical sign right out front, along with nice signs on the gates across the driveway. The formal front of the house is in fact around back with a courtyard; maybe they needed the gates to keep people like us from trying to check it out!"

Gravesite

 

Gravesite: Zachary Taylor National Cemetery, 4701 Brownsboro Road, St. Matthews, KY

Log Excerpt: "Zachary Taylor Grave, in Zachary Taylor National Cemetery. With the spring growth, lower sun and classic rows of military gravestones it was an oddly pleasant place to be while we photoed ZT’s mausoleum and monument/statue."
