Dover, KY

united states

Dover is a tiny Ohio River community in northeastern Kentucky, reached via US Route 68 east-west or State Route 9 along the river. Most traffic comes from Maysville 15 miles northeast or connects to the AA Highway for longer trips. The town sits on fertile bottomland with wooded hills inland, typical of the Ohio Valley's rolling terrain. Dover marks one of the historic Ohio River crossing points where Native American trails and early ferry routes shaped regional settlement patterns.
