Hustonville, Kentucky
Hustonville is a 5th-class city in Lincoln County, Kentucky, in the United States. The population was 347 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Danville Micropolitan Statistical Area.
==History==
The community was originally known as The Crossroads from its location on trails connecting the Kentucky and Green rivers and the Falls of the Ohio with Logan's Fort (present-day Stanford). It was then known as Farmington and, after the 1818 erection of a post office, Hanging Fork after a local stream named for two bandits who were hanged by Virginia officers rather than escorted back for trial. For three months in 1826, it was known as New Store, but the name then returned to Hanging Fork. When the town was established on February 29, 1836, it was renamed Hustonville after two local landowners; the post office adopted the name the next year. The city was formally incorporated by the state assembly in 1850.〔Commonwealth of Kentucky. Office of the Secretary of State. Land Office. "Hustonville, Kentucky". Accessed 29 Jul 2013.〕
"The church at Hustonville having no suitable house of worship, (Logan Williams ) raised a sufficient fund--six thousand dollars--to build the present commodious edifice, which stands to-day as a monument to his energy and liberality. It was dedicated in 1855 by H. T. Anderson. Encouraged by this success, () entered the field again to raise funds to build a college to be under the control of the church. In a short time he secured twelve thousand dollars with which was erected Christian College, a handsome brick structure about one hundred feet long by fifty feet wide, and three stories in height."〔http://books.google.com/books?id=YbPRAAAAMAAJ&dq=The%20church%20at%20Hustonville%20having%20no%20suitable%20house%20of%20worship%2C&pg=PA432#v=onepage&q=The%20church%20at%20Hustonville%20having%20no%20suitable%20house%20of%20worship,&f=false〕
After graduation from Centre College in Danville, Kentucky in 1889, Augustus O. Stanley, who was at one time, member of the US House and Senate, as well as governor of Kentucky, served as chair of ''belles-lettres'' at Christian College.〔Johnson, E. Polk.
