Just like most of Kentucky's 120 counties, the history of Breckinridge is captivating. The county was named for John Breckinridge (1760-1806), a Kentucky Attorney General, state legislator, United States Senator, and United States Attorney General. Divided from vast Virginia at that time, it was only the 38th Kentucky county in order of formation. Pictured is an old coaling tower.
