Washington was founded in 1786 and was part of Virginia. In 1792 Kentucky was admitted to the Union, being the 15th state. Washington, Kentucky was the 2nd in population with Lexington being larger. Now the historical community, part of Maysville, struggles and depends on tourism.

Is there lots of water damage? And on and on.
