The Extensive Bracken County Area in Kentucky was founded in 1796 from parts of Mason and Campbell counties. The Area contained parts of what is now Robertson, East Harrison, Bourbon, most of Nicholas, north and central Fleming, and the southern tip of Mason counties.
Over the years the county shrank until all that remained was Robertson, tip portions of Harrison, and the southern tip of Mason Counties. By 1900 It had been reduced to what is now known as Bracken County.
