Unless the person is the 'legal guardian' of the felon, there should be no reason for the person to be convicted of any crime to do with a felon being around a firearm.

It is the responsibility of the felon to NOT be around a firearm, not anyone else but the felon's responsibility.

The person however may get into trouble if they knowingly give/sell/purchase a firearm to/for a known felon.

Can a felon live in a house with a gun in Ky?

No. Not a good idea! US Code, Title 18 stipulates that it is a federal offense for a convicted felon to ever own or "POSSESS" firearms of any type. To live in a residence where there are firearms puts the felon in what is known in the law as "constructive possession" of the firearms (i.e.- the felon would have ready access to them - which is exactly what the law is written to prevent). That is a violation of the law, and the person who owns the guns and who knowingly resides with a convicted felon could also be charged as an accessory to the offense.

Can a person be convicted of a firearm if it was made 70 years ago and is not working?

No one is convicted of a firearm- you are convicted of doing something with it that was illegal. Carrying concealed, brandishing, threatening, etc. In the US, firearms made after 1898 are considered firearms- guns made before then are antiques. My 1940 firearms still work quite well, and they are 70 years old. You need to talk with an attorney, and not WikiAnswers.
