Built between 1820 and 1830,the Gower House was a 35 to 40 room inn for weary travelers. It was situated on the south bank at the confluence of the Cumberland and Ohio Rivers at Smithland Kentucky in Livingston County. In 1966 The Kentucky Historical Society placed a marker which read: "Erected about 1780: one of the luxury inns built to accomodate the travlers on the Ohio River. Host to many celebrities of that era, including Presidents James K. Polk, Zachary Taylor, founder American Red Cross, Clara Barton; authors Charles Dickens and Lew Wallace; and Henry Clay. Lafayette was a guest here in May of 1825 while on his trumphal US Tour." The back reads: "Ned Buntline, pen name of Edward Z.C. Judson, author of Western stories and maker of the "Buntline Special" revolover, came to Smithland to publish his works; lived here in 1845." Buntline was the author of the Wild Bill and other western ledgens. Among the famous that are reported to have slept at the Inn are: Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Jackson, Aaron Burr, John James Audubon, Benedict Arnold, Jenny Lind. Ulysses S. Grant and his troops are said to have drank from the mineral well in the courtyard. Local folk lore reports that President Zachary Taylor was informed of his election to the Presidency while staying at the Inn.
