The Baker Beam Home stood on the distillery grounds at Clermont and was named for Baker, Jim Beam's great-nephew, who lived and worked there as the plant distiller. Built in 1911, it served before 1934 as a boarding house for railroad men, coopers, and government distillery gangers. In 1934, Jim Beam's son T. Jeremiah moved in to oversee rebuilding the plant after Prohibition, and in 1947 he moved out as his cousin Carl Beam, whom Jim had named Master Distiller, moved in with his wife Edna. Carl and Edna lived there until 1972 and raised their children Baker, David, and Carliss in the house. After Carl retired, Baker moved back in to oversee the running of the plant, walking down Beam Hill each morning to manage operations and uphold the Beam name. Because of its location on the distillery grounds and the role Jim and Jeremiah played in restoring Kentucky's bourbon business, the house was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places. Though no longer a family residence, it remains a reminder of Beam family heritage, perseverance, and an active place for family meetings and distillery business.
