Governor Charles Scott
- The new county seat was laid out in 1816 and named "Scottville" after Governor Charles Scott, fourth governor of Kentucky. This was the name used by the Kentucky Legislature and in the early records until the Post Office Department in Washington erroneously recorded the new post office as "Scottsville." Gradually, this replaced the original name.
