GOVERNMENTAL STATISTICS
OF
KENTUCKY BEFORE SHE BECAME A STATE.
GOVERNORS OF VIRGINIA, WHILE KENTUCKY WAS A PART OF IT.
Robert Dinwiddie-called " lieutenant-governor "-arrived in Virginia from Eng- land early in 1752, and departed in Jan., 1758. His vacancy was filled for a short time by John Blair, president of the council.
The Earl of Loudoun was appointed by the King the successor of Dinwiddie, and came to Philadelphia, but never to Virginia.
Francis Fauquier was appointed lieutenant-governor, and reached Virginia in 1758. He continued governor until his death, early in 1768; when John Blair, who was still president of the council, again acted as governor.
