Description: The history of the now thriving city of Florence, Kentucky may be divided into three stages, two of which are covered in this article.  The first stage encompasses the growth of the small crossroads into the most important town on the turnpike between Georgetown and Covington.  The second stage was a period of stagnation and decay caused by the bypassing of the railroad, while motor vehicle traffic revived the town in the third stage of its history.This article does not purport to be a comprehensive history, but does include assorted information assembled about the past of the author's childhood home.
