The Atkinson Griffin Log House is a historic two story wooden structure that was built in 1840. The log cabin served as a Confederate hospital after the Tebbs Bend Civil War Battle, which took place July 4th, 1863. The Tebbs Bend Battlefield is located near Campbellsville, Kentucky.
This small log cabin was the first post office in Kentucky, and the first post office west of the Allegheny Mountains of Maryland, a sub-range of the Appalachian Mountains. In 1792 Thomas Barbee was commissioned as its first post master, and the first mail arrived November 3rd of that year. The post office building was ultimately relocated from its original location to Danville’s Constitution Square.
