Blackacre State Nature Preserve & Historic Homestead – Louisville, Kentucky
A historic farm house built in 1844, at the Blackacre State Nature Preserve. The historic Blackacre homestead was established south of present day Louisville, Kentucky by Edward Tyler, who provided wood planks, flour, and a courier service to the army of George Rogers Clark, during the American Revolutionary war. For his efforts, he was eventually given the land grant that would become the Blackacre farm seen today.
A number of outbuildings on the same property date back to the 1790’s.
