Footnotes

This distillery was constructed around 1880 as an addition to the well-established Blue Grass Distillery just across the river which Edward J. Curley had been the sole proprietor of since 1874.

In 1882, Bonfort's Wine and Spirit Circular noted "this house is entitled to take its place among the best distilleries in the world." By 1889, the distillery was absorbed by the "Whiskey Trust" a collection of distilleries at the time, and would remain in operation right up to Prohibition.
