Notes:
"Marion, a landing on the Kentucky River in this county, known to the mailing public as Moxley, named in honor of a much esteemed and good citizen, A. Moxley Riggs, has improved so in the last two years that the place is now familiarly spoken of as a 'town,' and honored as a hamlet. A. D. Daniel & Co. began selling goods there in the early part of '84, at which time no other business was carried on and only two dwelling houses stood in the vicinity. Now the place has all the accommodations of a village. Besides general merchandise, blacksmithing, shoe-making and saddlering are among its accommodations." - Owen County Democrat, 10 Dec 1886
