Welcome to Bath County

Bath County was formed in 1811 from the east part of Montgomery County. It was named for the medicinal springs in the area soon known as Olympian Springs. In 1818 parts of what was then Floyd County were added to Bath County. In 1823 parts of Bath County were included in the newly formed Morgan County. Bath County acquired its current boundaries in 1869 after parts of the county were removed to form Menifee County.

Be sure to check Montgomery County for families who were in the Bath County area before 1811 and Clark County for families who were in the area before 1797.
