There’s not much Gin Chaudoin hasn’t seen in her 93 years.
Last week, though, the lively born-and-raised Pewee Valley resident saw her family’s historical artifacts on display for the first time.
Chaudoin is the granddaughter of infamous town blacksmith Jacob Herdt, who started a family business with Jacob and Son Blacksmith Shop. It eventually turned into a wagon shop, a Ford dealership, an automotive repair center and is now known as the Herdt Motor Co. building.
