Did you know that entire towns, one with over 2500 residents, had to be completely relocated when the lakes were built?  And did you know that thousands of people were relocated when the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) purchased over 170,000 acres of land to form a national recreation area?  It's true. 

Something of this magnitude doesn't seem possible.  But it happened, beginning in 1938 and lasting over the next 30 years.  We invite you to take a look at the wonderful history of the Kentucky Lakes Area - from yesterday to the Civil War.
