		Kentucky has had a rich and varied history since frontier times, when it was the haunt of Daniel Boone and other famous pioneers.

		Chief among these are Kentucky Lake, on the Tennessee River behind Kentucky Dam; Lake Barkley, behind Barkley Dam on the lower Cumberland River; Lake Cumberland, behind Wolf Creek Dam on the upper Cumberland River; and Buckhorn Lake, behind Buckhorn Dam on the middle fork of the Kentucky River.

	Kentucky Dam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kentucky Dam is a dam on the Tennessee River on the dividing line between Livingston County and Marshall County in the U.S. state of Kentucky.
		The impetus for construction of a dam in the area was the devastating 1937 flood of the Ohio River, and the desire for electric generation.
		The dam is near the New Madrid Seismic Zone, which produced earthquakes of estimated magnitude 7.0 to 7.9 in 1811, approximately 60 miles (100 km) northeast of the zone's center.
