Historical Marker 2136—Mary Elliott Flanery

Mary Elliott Flanery was a journalist, suffragist, and politician. She was the first woman elected to Kentucky legislature. Flanery was elected in 1921 to the state House of Representatives from Boyd County. She had worked for women's suffrage and was concerned with marriage and divorce laws and educational reform. At her death in 1933, a bronze marker was placed at her seat, No. 40, in the House chamber.

Born in 1867 in Carter County (now Elliott County), Flanery wrote for the Ashland Daily Independent from 1904-26. She also taught school in Elliott and Carter counties. She was chosen in 1924 as a Kentucky delegate to the Democratic National Convention in New York City.

Our Town—Liberty

Liberty, the county seat for Casey County, was established in 1808 by several Revolutionary War veterans and named for one of the values of their new country.

The county itself was established two years earlier, in 1806, and is named for Colonel William Casey, an early Kentucky pioneer and the great-grandfather of Samuel L. Clemens, better known as Mark Twain. Like many counties in Kentucky, Casey County grew from a wilderness outpost of settlers hoping to make a living off the land. Today Casey County's south-central Kentucky location places it within one of the fastest growing regions in the state.
