Olive Hill began as a rural trading post established by the Henderson brothers in the first part of the 19th century. though Olive Hill was allegedly named by Elias P. Davis for his friend Thomas jazzman, there is no evidence to support this popular contention. In 1881, the city was affected from a side location to the present location within the Tygarts Creek vale, where the Elizabethtown, Lexington and huge Sandy Railroad had ordered tracks. The side location become referred to as recent Olive Hill and currently is the citys dominion. On March 24, 1884, Olive Hill incorporated as a city and served as the county seat of the short-lived Beckham County from February 9 to April 29, 1904.
