Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 7th ed., 1887,
Owen Co.

THOMAS LONG was born in Owen County, Ky., September 22, 1842, and is the
third of a family of thirteen children born to Robert and Cynthia (Carter)
Long, natives of Kentucky.  Robert Long is still living on a farm in Owen
County, which occupation he has followed from boyhood.  Thomas Long was
brought up on the farm, and received his education at the common schools.
In 1861 he enlisted in the Confederate Army, as a private, in the Fifth
Kentucky Infantry, under Col. H. H. Hawkins, and served until the close
of the war, being a participant in most of the principal battles.  At the
close of the war he returned to Owen County, where he farmed a year or
two, then turned his attention to the tobacco business, and is now a very
extensive dealer in that article.  In 1868 he moved to Eagle Station,
where he has since been agent for the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, at
that place.  December 31, 1873, he married Miss Mattie L. Sanders, of
Owen County.  One child has blessed this union--Ludie B.  The family are
members of the Missionary Baptist Church.  Mr. Long is a Master Mason,
and a member of the F. & A. M.  Politically he is a Prohibitionist.
