After statehood in June 1792, the Kentucky General Assembly maintained the same method of land patenting established by royal proclamations and Virginia Land Laws. Grants signed by Kentucky governors conveyed title to land in the Commonwealth after Kentucky became the 15th state. Patent numbers in the Old Kentucky Series (OK) range from 1 to 7668. There are 7771 patent files in the series due to patent number duplications. A few patent numbers were skipped.
