Day 7 –Frankfort, KY to Huntington, WV - 132 miles

“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.”
“Frankfort is the capital of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, a state of the United States of America.” Our walk continues today to West Virginia.
