ALBERT W. HARDIN, a fine stock breeder in Oldham County, was born where he
now resides, June 21, 1830, the third of five children born to William A.
and Sarah (Trigg) Hardin.  William A. Hardin was a son of Harry Hardin of
Virginia, who came to Kentucky at an early date and settled where our
subject now resides.  He was brought up on the farm and received a common
school education.  He chose farming in early life, and has since followed
it where he now resides and owns 450 acres of fine land.  Of late years he
has devoted considerable attention to the breeding and developing of fine
stock. "Exchequer" died on his farm, the only thoroughbred living or dead
with two in the thirty list; Hetzel's Hambletonian, full brother to
"Volunteer" and "Sentinel" is also buried on his farm.  In 1854 he was
united in marriage with Adelia M. Young, a daughter of Richard Young, of
Shelby County.  To this union was born one child, Richard Y.  Mrs. Hardin
lived only a short time, and our subject next married Julia A. Young, a
sister of his first wife, who also died shortly after.  He married for
his third wife Ophelia Arterburn, a daughter of Norbourn Arterburn, of
Jefferson County.  To this union were born four daughters and three sons:
Sallie, Annie, William A., Albert V., Norbourn and two infants.  Mr.
Hardin is a Master Mason.  Politically he is a Democrat.
