Owensboro is the county seat of Daviess County in north-central Kentucky. Originally part of Shawnee territory, white settlers first arrived there in the 1700s. Over time the city played a role in the Civil War era, serving as an important river port, which continues to this day. The city?s environs gave birth to the Bluegrass sound in American music, starting in the 1930s and 40s, continuing on through today.
