Bracken County is mainly alot of country and farms. There are a few very small cities located in Bracken County.
Bracken County was organized as Kentucky's 23rd county in 1796 from parts of Mason and Campbell counties. It is named in honor of William Bracken, an early pioneer and surveyor, who first came to the area in 1773, then settled here. He met his death at an early day at the hands of the Indians. The original county was composed of all the way to southern Nicholas County, north to the Ohio River, west to the Licking River and east to Dover, Kentucky. The county government moved from Augusta to Woodward's Crossing (now Brooksville) in 1833.
The elevation in the county ranges from 455 to 980 feet above sea level.
