[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1476868, member: 27490"] Northern Kentucky has some history I have heard all my life but didn't know until I saw it on KET. [b]Stewart Iron Works is an American ironworks plant in Erlanger, Kentucky. It is one of the city's oldest manufacturing firms and at its peak was the largest iron fence maker in the world. Stewart's is the second-oldest iron company in continuous operation in the United States. Based at 30 Kenton Lands Rd, its first location was at 8th & Madison in Covington, Kentucky. Owned by the Stewart Iron Works Co., Inc., it was established by the Scottish American Stewart family. The company was founded in 1862 and incorporated in 1910.[/b] It is interesting. Covington and Newport was considered second only to Chicago in organized crime (gangsters). And third only to Atlantic City and Vegas in gambling. No wonder my family has so many ruthless characters. [b]From its beginnings as a military outpost in 1803, Newport had an aura of sin. Sitting at the edge of civilization in what was then the American West, the Northern Kentucky city developed into a lawless slip on the Ohio River – where drinking, prostitution, gambling and gunplay were the natural order.[/b] [/QUOTE]
