Sutton's Landing
— 1850's —
This county seat and trade center of over 4,500 people daily welcomed freight-hauling steamboats bringing in goods and visitors and picking up hemp, tobacco and whiskey at the bustling foot of Sutton Street. Senator Henry Clay and others stopped overnight at the red brick Lee House, mixing and talking with old citizens and Irish and German newcomers.| HM Number | HM1KV3 |
