Van B. Snook House

The Van B. Snook House, in Shelby County, Kentucky near Cropper, Kentucky, is a house was built c.1820. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.Its exterior is brick laid in Flemish bond and it is Federal in style, perhaps especially in its front doorway with sidelights and elliptical fanlight above.The property was deemed significant "as a well-preserved example of the early 19th century (1800-40) brick center-passage plan in Shelby County," whose historic resources were studied in 1986–87. The study identified 17 one-story center-passage plan houses, but "[t]his house is particularly noteworthy as it appears to be the only known example with an original projecting pedimented porch containing beaded flushboarding and a tripartite window in the tympanum." Also, its elliptical fanlight is unusual for Shelby County.The listing includes two historic outbuildings and are contributing: a board and batten-clad meathouse and a weatherboarded kitchen or wash house. The meathouse "is an integral part of a later period's domestic space, exhibiting the way outbuildings are replaced or added through time" and the kitchen or wash house is a frame outbuilding with a stone chimney that is "an extremely rare survivor from the house's original period of significance."Its listing followed a 1986-87 study of the historic resources of Shelby County.It is located on Mulberry-Eminence Pike, 1 mile (1.6 km) north of Stoney Point Rd.The house may have association with what was known as the Snook-Herr Wedding Tragedy, in which 65 or so persons became ill from poisoning and seven persons, including the father of the groom, Mr. Van Buren Snook, died. According to the account published by The Filson Historical Society (of Louisville, Kentucky), the groom lived in Henry County, Kentucky, adjacent to Shelby. The bride and groom, out of touch in Cincinnati, also were ill, and, two weeks after the wedding, the groom died too.

Cropper, Kentucky

Cropper is an unincorporated community within Shelby County, Kentucky, United States. It was also known as Croppers Depot. Their post office is closed. The town of Cropper (Population Cal. at 205 in 2010) is located in northeast Shelby County, Kentucky. The origin of its name comes from the town's founder James Cropper, a blacksmith and store keeper who was the first person to build a house there sometime in the 1790s. He also was the town's first postmaster. The majority of Cropper's original citizens were members of the Low Dutch colony who were in the area as early as 1786. In 1807, a new group of settlers from Virginia increased the town's population. In 1855, the Louisville and Nashville Railroad (L and N) along with a depot opened on the east end of town. A hotel soon opened afterwards. This railroad line was closed in the early 1970s. Another occurrence, in 1855, was the founding of Union Grove Church. This church had three different denominations that included Christian, Methodist and Baptist. The only cemetery in Cropper is on the church grounds. In June 1900, the Baptist separated from the Union Church, and by 1903 it had its own building. In 1967, the Union Grove Church was renamed Cropper Christian Church. In 1905, a bank was opened by Ben Allen Thomas, but it was closed in 1921. An 1882 map shows the first school in Cropper which was a large two-story building with grades one through twelve. It burned in 1951 and was replaced with a one-story elementary school. The team mascot was the Yellow Jackets.
