Guest **DONOTDELETE** Posted April 18, 2000 Share Posted April 18, 2000 I am interested in acquiring any items bearing the name "Wathen" from the old J. B. Wathen & Brother Rolling Fork Distillery in Lebanon, KY. Also any items from the "American Medicinal Spirits" company. Please send description and price. Link to post Share on other sites
jvanwinkle Posted April 18, 2000 Share Posted April 18, 2000 You might give Charles Medley a call. He is a Wathen family member.Julian(270) 926-4460 Link to post Share on other sites
cowdery Posted April 19, 2000 Share Posted April 19, 2000 You might also want to call Ted Wathen, in Louisville. I don't have his number, but he's a photographer there and descended from J.B.By the way, the Wathens owned more than just the distillery in Lebanon. They were a pretty big deal in Kentucky distilling up through Prohibition. They owned Old Grand-Dad for a time too, when it was in Nelson County.If you're interested in sharing, I and perhaps some others would be interested in hearing why you are interested in collecting Wathen memorabilia.--Chuck Cowdery Link to post Share on other sites
