"Millers Creek is located about 3 miles south of Irvine on the east
side of the Kentucky River. One of the early roads in the county to
have been built was from Irvine to Millers Creek. The community of
Millers Creek, along with the Creek itself, was named for a man named
Miller who operated a grist mill within the vicinity. The Creek was
long, being a "Big" and "Little" Millers Creek and played an important
part in early industry of the southeast section of the County. In early
days, logs were rolled down Cobhill to the Furnace Fork of Millers Creek,
then into the Creek and thence into the Kentucky River to float down to
the mills placed along the river. According to Colling History, in 1870,
iron from Estill Furnace and the Fitchburg Furnace was taken by train
way, 6 miles, to Scott's Landing on the Kentucky River near the mouth
of Millers Creek.
