I have several family members listed as being born in Mt. Vernon, Rockcastle county before 1810, however Rockcastle wasn't established until 1810. Does anyone know when Mt. Vernon was first recognized as an actual town? I use AniMap to plot and check locations and it lists Mt. Vernon in Rockcastle county which indicates to me that Mt. Vernon was established on or after 1810 when the county was established. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give. Thanks
