Owensboro
was first
settled in the 1790s by frontiersman William "Bill"
Smeathers, for which the park on the riverfront
is named, as well a Kentucky Historical Marker #
744 has also been erected in his honor at the park.
The settlement was called Yellow Banks, an allusion
to the color of the banks of the Ohio River. In
1817, Yellow Banks was incorporated as a city under
the name Owensborough, named after Colonel Abraham
Owen (who is also the namesake of Owen County, Kentucky).
In 1893, the name was shortened to its present spelling
of Owensboro. It is also known as the "Barbecue
Capital of the World".
