Bourbon County, Virignia and Fayette County, Virginia were not separated in 1795, because Kentucky became a state in 1792. Either the year of their separation is incorrect, or the auspices of the state under which this occured is wrong. Fayette County, Virginia, was established in 1780 and Bourbon County, Virginia, was carved from Fayette in 1785. Cowdery 04:24, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
