Historic Adair County: Buck Watson, Bobby Beard, '55 Crown Vic



2007-04-05 - Old Neatsville, KY - Photo From collection of Tommy Giles.
Old Neatsville was located just southeast of the intersection of KY 76, the Elkhorn Road, and KY 206. Locals say that Neatsville once vied with Columbia as the possible site for the county seat. It was still a thriving trading center when T.M. Buck Watson operated the store where this picture, of the proprietor himself, left, and local resident Bobby Beard, was taken. They're standing by a 1955 Ford Crown Victoria, the top of the line car sold at the time at Adair Sales Co., at the time located where Madison Square office building on Burkesville Street in Columbia is today. Mr. Watson later was in the real estate business with Richard Lee Walker and was in the Kentucky legislature.
