Summary

Since Cynthiana's founding along the South Fork of the Licking River in the late 1700s, its residents have exemplified the pioneering spirit befitting the "Maiden City" of Harrison County. This county seat claims an exciting spot in Central Kentucky history and a colorful time line dotted by events, including two Civil War battles, the city's early growth as an agricultural and marketing center, and later, its role as the industrial heart of the county. From schools and sports to large and small businesses, from houses of faith to family farms, Images of America: Cynthiana turns the page on time to capture history through the photographic memories of residents who cherished community.
