Tway, was a business, agricultural and political icon in the Louisville, Kentucky area.
His activities provided a long-lasting footprint in Kentucky as his farm (named Plainview Farms) evolved into a large subdivision and business center located off Hurstbourne Lane, and his former Kentucky Trailer Company continues to manufacture trailers in Jefferson Riverport International.
He is the namesake of Tway, Kentucky, where he owned a coal mining company for over forty years.
