Researching the Benjamin Long cabin at Brushy Creek

If you have information about the history of the cabin at the intersection of Wise Road and Brushy Creek, or about Benjamin Long, either Junior or Senior, use our Comment Form and we'll get you in touch with Pam.

By Pam Long

We, the Long family, are attempting to learn more about the land records of this "Benjamin Long cabin" to determine if it was the Benjamin Long Sr, that died about 1773 or if it is the son of Benjamin Long Sr - Benjamin Long Jr that owned this cabin (father of George Horace Long)

I dont know if this is of interest to you or not, but was struck to write when I found the photo here, CM photo: Scenic Taylor Co., KY: Wise Road Bridge over Brushy Creek, that is so very near the same location of the cabin of Benjamin Long.

I have other photos of the cabin that were supposedly taken about 1980, by Beverly Gorn a local historian.

We so want to discover more about the history of this cabin.

By Daisy Rodriguez

He read Hebrews 12:1: "Everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith for the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
