==History==
The city of Glasgow was established by the Kentucky [[Kentucky Assembly|state assembly]] in 1799.<ref>Commonwealth of Kentucky. Office of the Secretary of State. Land Office. "Glasgow, Kentucky". Accessed 28 July 2013.</ref> The same year, the community was selected as the seat of a new county, owing to its central location, its large spring, native John Gorin's donation of {{convert|50|acre}} for public buildings, and its being named for the [[Scotland|Scottish]] [[Glasgow|hometown]] of the father of [[William Logan (Kentuckian)|William Logan]], one of the two commissioners charged with selecting the county seat. A post office was established in 1803, and the town received its city rights in 1809.

[[File:Plaza Theater Glasgow Kentucky 03-15-2014.JPG|right|thumb|200px|Historic Plaza Theatre in downtown Glasgow]]

;Civil War
The [[American Civil War|Civil War]] affected many smaller towns like Glasgow. There are many places that were part of the [[Underground Railroad]] in Glasgow, such as Big Spring Bottom for keeping horses and the Spotswood House on North Race Street for hiding enslaved people. Other places include the Old Glasgow Seminary Home on East Main Street; this house has several rooms dug out in the earth with tunnels running into them for keeping the enslaved people hidden and safe. Early in the war a Confederate sympathizer living in area raised a [[Flag of South Carolina|Palmetto flag]], but it was soon taken by a group of Unionist who dipped it in barrel of tar and set it on fire.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Sacramento Daily Union 2 March 1861 — California Digital Newspaper Collection |url=https://cdnc.ucr.edu/?a=d&d=SDU18610302.2.17&srpos=480&e=------186-en--20--461-byDA-txt-txIN-Flag----1861--- |access-date=2024-12-16 |website=cdnc.ucr.edu}}</ref>
