Lee County in the great state of Kentucky was formed on March 1, 1870, and was named in honor of General Robert E. Lee, a prominent Confederate general during the American Civil War. The county is located in the Eastern Coalfield region of the state, covering a total area of approximately 211 square miles. Beattyville, the largest settlement in Lee County, was established in 1850 and serves as its county seat.

The region was initially inhabited by various Native American tribes, including the Cherokee, Shawnee, and Chickasaw. European settlers arrived in the 18th century and began to develop the area's resources. Lee County's economy has been historically based on the coal, timber, oil, and natural gas industries, which provided employment for local residents.

One interesting fact about Lee County is that it is home to the historic Three Forks of the Kentucky River, where the North, Middle, and South Forks converge. This confluence played a critical role in the river and shipping trade in the 19th century and ultimately led to the establishment of the notable Kentucky River Museum.
