Swift was a miner in the 1700s and is said to have owned the largest mansion in Alexandria, Virginia. Was the mine in Kentucky or Virginia or Tennessee? Some traditions say it is/was in Kentucky. What is the true identity of the mysterious silver miner? Sources of information provided in Kentucky history books were generally attained through verbal accounts; therefore, no written verifiable description has ever been provided to disclose the miner’s full identity. Mr. Prather says that the identity of the mysterious silver miner is revealed in his book. The author also states, “As with all folk stories and legends, only basic information regarding any particular story is passed on by verbal accounts and in most instances the stories have been embellished and altered from one telling to the next.” Swift’s mining activities took place during the late 1700’s, so how much truth has survived? The Greater Jeffersontown Historical Society meetings are now held on the first Monday of the even numbered months of the year. Everyone is encouraged to attend to help guide and grow the Society. February, 2016 Meeting As part of Black History Month along with the Jeffersontown Branch Library we will have a program presented by local author, Carridder Jones, “Voices from Historical African American Communities Near Louisville, Kentucky.” October Meeting Kadie Engstrom, Education Coordinator for the Belle of Louisville, has worked with the historic steamboat Belle of Louisville in several capacities since 1972, and has been Education Coordinator since 1992.
