Inez (〔Rennick (1987), who also claims some locals pronounce the city as .〕 and ) is a city in and the county seat of Martin County, Kentucky, United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2011-06-07 )〕 The population was 466 at the 2000 census. ==History== The area was first settled by James Ward and named Arminta Ward's Bottom. This community was made the seat of Martin County in 1873, replacing its earlier court at Warfield. Upon the occasion, J.M. Stepp renamed it Eden after the Biblical garden. As there was already a post office named Eden, Kentucky, the local postmaster was obliged to rename his Inez on June 23, 1874. The name is usually held to have been derived from that of Inez Frank, the daughter of Louisa's postmaster in neighboring Lawrence County.〔 Accessed 8 Apr 2010.〕 President Lyndon B. Johnson visited Inez in 1964, landing by helicopter with his party at an abandoned miniature golf course, to promote the War on Poverty. "At the time, the poverty rate in this coal-mining area was more than 60 percent."
