ALMOND B. SLAUGHTER, a native of Owen County, Ky., was born September 12,
1867, and is a son of R. F. and Mary (Noel) Slaughter, the latter a
daughter of Barnett Noel, of Owen County.  R. F. Slaughter, also a native
of Owen County, was a farmer by occupation until 1875, when he engaged in
general merchandising at Poplar Grove, Owen County, in which business he
is still engaged.  He was a soldier in the Confederate service, having
enlisted in 1862, and served under Gen. Morgan.  Robert C. Slaughter,
grandfather of Almond B., was born in Owen County, and was long one of
the first farmers of that county.  He and his wife are still living.  The
maternal grandfather of our subject, Barnett Noel, was a native
Kentuckian, and a soldier in the war of 1812, in which war he held the
rank of captain.  He died in 1865, leaving a widow, who is still living,
at the age of eighty-four.  Almond B. Slaughter was raised on a farm in
Owen County, and received his education in Owen and Fayette Counties.
He attended the Kentucky University at Lexington, and graduated in the
commercial department in 1885, when he entered the mercantile business
at Harrisburg, Owen County, in which he still continues.  He is unmarried,
and politically he is a Democrat.
