HISTORY
BATH COUNTY
was established in 1811 from land given by Montgomery County. Its
name is derived from natural springs said to have medicinal
qualities. The courthouse in Owingsville was destroyed through fire
in 1864.
In 1932, an archaeological field survey observed
fourteen archaeological sites in Bath County, including the Ramey
Mound near Sharpsburg and multiple ancient burials near the
Springfield Presbyterian Church.
