History

Formed in 1869 from Bath County, Montgomery County, Morgan County, Powell County and Wolfe County

An old deed may name a county that no longer exists, or a boundary that has since moved.

Menifee County was created on May 1, 1869, from parts of Bath, Montgomery, Morgan, Powell, and Wolfe counties. The county was named after Richard Menefee. Over the following two decades, Menifee exchanged small areas with neighboring counties to accommodate local property owners.
