Frankfort, KY Real Estate

Frankfort is the capital of Commonwealth of Kentucky, a state of the United States of America. It is also the county seat of Franklin County.

As of the 2000 census, the city has a population of 27,741.

The town of Frankfort probably received its name from an event that took place in 1780 when Indians attacked a group of pioneers from Bryan ™s Station who were making salt at a ford in the Kentucky River. One of the pioneers, Stephen Frank, was killed and the crossing became known as Frank ™s Ford. Later this name was shortened to Frankfort.

After Kentucky became a state, five commissioners were appointed on June 20, 1792, to choose a location for the state capital. They were John Allen and John Edwards (both from Bourbon Co.), Henry Lee (Mason Co.), Thomas Kennedy (Madison Co.), and Robert Todd (Fayette Co.). A number of communities competed for this honor, but Frankfort won by perseverance and, according to early histories, the offer of Andrew Holmes' log house as capitol for seven years, a number of town lots, 50 worth of locks and hinges, 10 boxes of glass, 1500 pounds of nails, and $3000 in gold.
