Biographical History
Capt. Henry Metcalfe was President of the Board of Water Commissioners of the Village of Cold Spring.
Thomas Metcalfe, governor of Kentucky from 1828-1832, was captain of volunteers during the War of 1812. Before serving as governor, he was a Kentucky representative and a U.S. representative. After serving as governor, Metcalfe served as state senator (1834-38) and then held a brief term (June 1848-March 1849)in the U.S. Senate, where he denounced secession. In 1848, he campaigned on behalf of Zachary Taylor in his bid for the presidency. Metcalfe lived the rest of his life at his Nicholas County farm, Forest Retreat, where he died of cholera in 1855.
