Historic home owners say they have not been contacted about Confederate marker s relocation

Standing at 1320 Park St., the stately Federal-style columns of the Grider House, hidden mostly from view by thick foliage, are home to a largely forgotten history. The home, named for Union Army Col. John Hobson Grider – no known relation to the Hobson House – is said to have been where the provisional government of the Confederacy met when it briefly occupied and named Bowling Green as its state capital during the Civil War. According to its current residents and homeowners, Dr. Gordon Newell and Regina Newell, the effective Confederate state Capitol building hosted notable names like John C. Breckinridge – the native Kentuckian and Confederate general who was once the 14th vice president, serving under the embattled one-term President James Buchanan and the predecessor of President Abraham Lincoln.
