Many persons have discovered small jugs, made of brownish pottery, inscribed with Wallace and Gregory Pure Vinegar. These jugs were used by a firm in Paducah, both as utilitarian pieces and as a means of advertising. Here's a little piece of connecting history to those collector jugs! Paducah's one time restaurant, 'Ninth Street House', located at 323 North Ninth Street, was home to George C. Wallace. He married Mary Wisdom (daughter of Paducah's first millionaire) and began his employ with the Joseph Friedman firm, and later, headed the Gregory Vinegar Works. in 1897, Wallace sold his interest in that comapny to become vice president of the Paducah Railway and Light Company. But in  1911, he organized the Wallace Vinegar Company of Paducah. Wallace commissioned Brinton Davis to design the three story Victorian mansion, complete with oriel window and bracketed cornice, on North Ninth Street. The building was almost lost through lack of interest, when it fell into disrepair, but luckily it was acquired and successfully renovated and used as a popular restaurant by Curtis and Norma Grace. In recent years, it became a private residence once again, standing proud among its peers.
