Livingston County is located in the western part of the great state of Kentucky. Established on December 29, 1798, the county was named after Robert R. Livingston, a prominent jurist and statesman who helped draft the United States Declaration of Independence and administered the oath of office to President George Washington. The county's seat and largest city is Smithland, situated at the confluence of the Cumberland and Ohio Rivers.

Early settlers in the region were hunters and trappers who ventured into the land during the late 1700s, taking advantage of abundant natural resources. The fertile soil also attracted farmers, contributing to the growth of the local agricultural economy. With the construction of the lock and dam system on the Ohio River in the early 1900s, Livingston County's significance as a river point trade hub grew.

Livingston County has a long history of mining fluorspar, a mineral used in the manufacture of steel, aluminum, and chemicals. During World War II, the demand for fluorspar increased dramatically, propelling the local mining industry.

A fun fact about Livingston County is that it is home to the Mantle Rock Preserve, a 367-acre nature preserve that features unique sandstone rock formations, forests, creeks, and various plant and animal species. The preserve also has historic significance, as it played a role in the Trail of Tears - the tragic relocation of Native Americans in the 1800s. The Cherokee used the natural sandstone bridge at Mantle Rock to shelter themselves during their forced march along the Trail of Tears.
