Welcome To

Hickman, KY

Our Mission

The area now known as Hickman was originally home to various Indigenous cultures for centuries before European-American settlement began following the American Revolutionary War.

In 1819, James Mills built the first cabin on the site, laying the foundation for what would become the community of Mills Point. As the settlement grew, a post office was established in 1830. Around 1834, G. Marr purchased much of the surrounding land and expanded the community by laying out additional streets.

In 1837, the town was renamed Hickman in honor of the maiden name of G. Marr’s wife. The Kentucky General Assembly officially incorporated Hickman as a city on February 18, 1841, and just four years later, in 1845, Hickman was designated as the county seat of Fulton County.

Today, Hickman continues to honor its rich history while serving as a vibrant community along the banks of the Mississippi River.
