1
Valley View Ferry is the oldest continuous business of record in Kentucky. It stands on land acquired by John Craig in 1780 through a military warrant, and in 1785 the Virginia Assembly granted a perpetual and irrevocable franchise to establish the ferry. The ferry is presently named for its location in the picturesque Valley View community.
