Simpsonville Live Cam

Simpsonville is a small city located in Shelby County, Kentucky. The area was originally inhabited by the Shawnee tribe, who used the land for hunting and fishing. In the late 1700s, European settlers began to move into the area and establish farms.

The town of Simpsonville was founded in 1819 and was named after Captain John Simpson, who was a veteran of the American Revolutionary War and a prominent landowner in the area. The town quickly became a hub of commerce and trade, with several businesses and mills located in the area.

During the Civil War, Simpsonville was a strategic location due to its proximity to the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. The town changed hands several times during the conflict, with both Union and Confederate troops occupying the area at different times.
