Clark County, Kentucky was created in 1792 from Bourbon and Fayette Counties, both of which had previously been part of Virginia. It was much larger area than present-day Clark County, as its original territory included all or part of the following counties: Bath, Breathitt, Clark, Estill, Floyd, Harlan, Knott, Lee, Leslie, Letcher, Magoffin, Menifee, Montgomery, Morgan, Perry, Pike, Powell and Wolfe. This book is similar to other history books of the era, but what does set it apart is the extensive section of religion and the churches role in its development. This book is filled with over 6,000 names that helped its development.
