Manchester, Kentucky

Manchester is a home rule-class city〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Summary and Reference Guide to House Bill 331 City Classification Reform )〕 in Clay County, Kentucky, in the United States. It is the seat of its county〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2011-06-07 )〕 and the home of a minimum- and medium-security federal prison. The city's population was 1,255 at the 2010 census.
==History==
The town was founded to be the seat of the newly formed Clay Co. in 1807 on a parcel near the Lower Goose Creek Salt Works. The county court stipulated that the town be named Greenville in honor of the War-of-1812 general who gave the county its name.〔Rennick, Robert. ''Kentucky Place Names'', (p. 186 ). University Press of Kentucky (Lexington), 1987. Accessed 1 Aug 2013.〕 The Greenville in Muhlenberg County had already preëmpted that name, however, and it was changed to "Manchester" in December. There was a local legend in the town that this was in honor of the hometown of Gen. Garrard's second wife Lucy Lees, but Rennick points out that she was born well after the naming of the city. He opines that it is more likely that the local businessmen simply wanted a name evocative of the English industrial success.〔
