Discover London
The area around London was Cherokee territory for centuries, and Daniel Boone passed through in 1776. When Laurel County was created in 1825, a vote was held to choose its seat, and land offered by John Jackson and his son Jarvis was selected, along with their suggested name of London, honoring their English heritage. The town was founded the next year, its post office opened in 1831, and it received city rights in 1836. One of John Jackson's sons, Hancock Lee Jackson, became the 13th governor of Missouri, and his second cousin Claiborne Fox Jackson was the 15th.
More about London
In 1861, early in the Civil War, the Battle of Camp Wildcat was fought north of the town. The First Christian Church of London was founded in 1865, and Pennington General Hospital, later St. Joseph's, opened on April 20, 1926. During the Depression the Works Progress Administration set up the Pack Horse Library Project to bring books to people in the mountains, and London served as a central collection point for donated books and had its own pack-horse riders who delivered them to rural homes. On the night of May 16, 2025, a violent EF4 tornado struck the southern part of London, destroying about 280 homes and killing 17 people in the city. Sources Wikipedia: London, Kentucky
