History

The community at the site was first known as Centerville from its supposed location at the center of the state. (Having since gained the Jackson Purchase, the present geographic center of the state remains nearby at Cowherd Road and McCarty Lane on Ky. 429 northwest of Lebanon.) The settlement was renamed Bradford’s Mill after Peter Bradford’s combined saw- and gristmill at the site; this became “Bradfordsville” after the establishment of a post office in 1834.
