Historic Creelsboro, KY: Polston Grocery Store In the 1960's the store was a great place to stop for a bologna and cheese sandwich, a Pepsi, and more. The Rusell County, KY, store was owned by the grandparents of Egypt, Adair County, Kentucky's own Robert W. Bell Click on headline for story with photo By Paul Patton The store building at Creelsboro which is featured in today's Columbia Magazine is the Polston Grocery Store which was owned and operated by Jim Al and Eliza Polston. Occasionally when I was visiting in the communities of Creelsboro and Rock House Bottom, back in the l960's, I would stop in and enjoy a bologna and cheese sandwich with a Pepsi and top it off with a Little Debbie cup cake. This store was a good place to trade (today we would say "shop" and also a good place to hear some interesting stories about the community and its residents. After the Polstons ceased operating the store it was kept open on weekends by their son-in-law, Robert M. Bell. The Polstons were the grandparents of Robert W. Bell of the Egypt community. The store building is currently owned by the Polston heirs. - Paul Patton Comments re photo 44919 Scenic Russell Co KY Old Creelsboro This story was posted on 2012-04-27 16:43:25
