History

Established in 1938.

In 1860, the architectural treasure now known as Haley-​McGinnis & Owensboro Funeral Home began its legacy. Then, a fortune of $ 5,000 spent on this castle-​like structure by Dr. William Stirman would never be completed, consequently dubbing it «Stirman’s Folly.» In 1915, Samuel Ewing, a prominent tobacco farmer and businessman, purchased and remodeled the Folly. It was during this time that notables like Clara Barton, the founder of the Red Cross, who came to Owensboro because of a flood, were entertained here.

In the 1940s, Owensboro names like Haley, McGinnis, Medley, Huebner, Cannon, Bowlds, McIntyre and Burns began a tradition of funeral service excellence to our area. These humble beginnings are the foundation to which Haley-​McGinnis stands firm to this day. In 1966, Haley-​McGinnis consolidated its services to include the Owensboro Funeral Home, which was established in 1938.
