Family memories shared



2005-08-07 - Columbia, KY - Photo courtesy. MEMORIES of BUELAH VILLA are shared by writer Don Graeter who used to come here as a child with his Gran. Pictured with him above are, from left: son Drew, 28, and his wife Heather; Don and Diane Graeter; Teal Baxter and their son, Spencer, 24, who will be getting married on September 24, 2005.

Memories of 'Gran' and Sulphur Well's Buelah Villa Hotel shared by Don Graete

The place Sulphur Well, Kentucky holds unique memories for people across Kentucky and surrounding states because of the fame for its artesian sulphur "healthy" water well and for it's country ham and hospitality at the Buelah Villa Hotel. Don Graeter recently caught himself wondering about it and used the Google search engine for information about the name King Crenshaw. Google matched him up with ColumbiaMagazine.com and our following communications resulted in his sharing of . . .
"MEMORIES OF BUELAH VILLA"
By Don Graeter

August 1955. There in black and white was my grandmother, just as I remember her, and a smart aleck seven year old making a face. No denying it, that was me.

Fifty years ago. FIFTY YEARS? No denying that either. Mom took the picture. She would have been thirty five. Now, as I helped her get some things in order, this treasure had risen to the surface of the "picture drawer." There were "Gran" and me at the Buelah Villa Hotel in Sulphur Well, standing on the short footbridge from the main hotel to the annex. At the time, Mom had been furious with me for ruining the picture. King Crenshaw's assistant, James, had been behind her laughing and exclaiming, "He made the ugliest face I ever saw."

John Dillinger was a guest at Sulphur Well's Buelah Villa Hotel

In this story by Geniece Marcum (Senior Quest, late 1990s) Mr. Paul Froggett of northern Metcalfe County is interviewed.
Paul Froggett remembers when John Dillinger was a guest at the Buelah Villa Hotel at Sulphur Well, Kentucky
Most of us are familiar with stories of the notorious James Gang, and of how they spent the night in a cabin located near Edmonton after their reported robbery of the Columbia bank. But this little- known story is one remembered by Paul Froggett, 87, who says back in 1933 another infamous bank robber, John Dillinger, also spent some time here as a guest at the Buelah Villa Hotel.

Paul says in August of 33, his brother Luther went to Louisville to pick up a new car which he had purchased. Cars were scarce here in those days and on his return trip home that afternoon Luther noticed that he was not the only motorist traveling in this direction on Highway 68.
