William Bard, the son of Irish immigrants, first traveled to Kentucky in search of salt to ship back to his home state of Pennsylvania. A surveyor, William created the first map of Louisville, Kentucky in 1779. He soon thereafter settled south of Louisville where he, along with his brother David, created the town that would bear his name and that would become legendary as the “bourbon capital of the world.”
The Bard family has remained on the same piece of land for nearly 200 years. This is their home. They’d love for you to think of this place as your home, too.
