I was born in War Memorial Hospital in Princeton on 16 August 1969. At 6:40 Kim, Todd & Faith Odum, my childhood friends in 1977, used to live in the brown brick home on the right. It used to be a gasoline station years before. I’ll never forget when Elvis died on my birthday. Mrs. Odum cried and played records for over a week. The next driveway on the right was our driveway, the Bonn’s, but it was owned by the Jones’s who we rented from. The next driveway on the right was the Hagy’s and they were big farmers.
you wouldnt happen to know anything about a real old, haunted white farm house out by the quarry off of hopkinsville road, it was on 128 just south of the quarry. would ya? it burned down around 87.
Thank you for posting this video. It really brings back memories. I can remember when downtown Princeton was wide open. I first saw Star Wars there when it first came out. I never get to see my family anymore because my dad moved us away from mom’s family but there’s not a day that goes by when I don’t think of them all. To all of Van and Opal Robinson’s grandchildren, I love you all and I think of you often.
My hometown. I know I'll see people I'll know in the video. Bobby Flay used to order his holiday hams from here at a little store called Newsom's in Princeton KY.
you wouldnt happen to know anything about a really old white farm house that was haunted off of 128 s of hopkinsville road, burned down around 87 would ya. looking for a back story to a house that has haunted me for almost 40 years.
At 8:37 I can remember my dad barely missing a head on collision at this S curve during the snowstorm of either 77 or 78 while we were rushing my little brother to the hospital who had went into convulsions. Mom held his tongue with her fingers the whole way and I remember seeing her fingers being almost bitten through.
My last name is Bonn. My family from Princeton includes the Robinson’s, Brown’s, Tyree’s, Blackburn’s & maybe more. I left Kentucky in 1988 & live in Saltville Virginia now. 🇺🇸
No joke my family lived in Princeton 100 years ago too! My great gradparents moved from there to California in 1936 I think. I have one cousin in law who lives there now, the widow of one of my ggms nephews Oh wow I wonder if our families knew each other...it being such a small place
I'm thinking about visiting Princeton, actually. Never been there myself, but my wife's got some family down there that she ain't seen in forever, so I might be making a trip soon. Honestly, it looks a lot like the town in NC I grew up in.
this brought back so many memories. i lived here as a kid, the irony of me living in detroit is kinda funny. did you guys stop at gravity hill, pretty cool spot. i lived in a old farm house by the quarry off of hopkinsville road. if your reading this and know anything of a haunted white farm house just south of hopkinsville road from the quarry, cross the tracks 2 miles down on the left please respond. that house has haunted me for years. it dont exist anymore it burned to the ground around 87 after we moved. my dad said people told him about the house when we lived in it. he says he never seen anything.. but all us kids seen some crazy crazy stuff in that house. im 45 and it still haunts me today, ive always been curious of the story of the house. lost in time now.
Hey, I'm a new subscriber to your channel. In the future if you are ever in this area again, go drive up to my hometown Evansville Indiana. I don't live there anymore but would be nice to see it again.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS Like East St. Louis,Cairo,historically,has had a tragic,violent racist past that has greatly contributed to it's decline,the population peaked at about 18,000 in 1920 to around 1,700 today,according to wikipedia.
Great video you guys I'm curious when you guys were in Paducah did you all go across the Irvin Cobb bridge from Paducah to Brockport. It's the scariest bridge in America or the most intimidating.
This video isn't where the tornado damage was. On RU-vid lookup 12-10-2022 tornado, Mayfield, Princeton, Dawson Springs, Bremen Ky. It hit our house at 10.22 pm is when our clocks stopped. Our house and big shop were totaled and 3 killed here between Dawson and Princeton. We went to some family's house north of Princeton because they had a basement. I think 12 or 13 were killed in Dawson Springs.
It’s got a lot of natural beauty and great hiking spots. The further north you go the more you see midwestern influence and the further south the more southern culture you notice. Living smack dab in the center you see where culture collides.
