The first three days of October, 1954, have been set aside for the celebration of the 100th birthday of the City of Ashland. The Celebration is based upon the actual starting of Ashland in 1854, when the Kentucky Iron, Coal & Manufacturing Company was chartered, purchased a large part of the present site of the city, laid it out into lots and Levi Hampton suggested the name of Ashland. As early as 1786 there had been the beginning of a settlement, known as Poage Settlement or Poage's Landing, on the banks of the Ohio, but it was not until 1854 that the real potentialities for a great industrial city were realized.

Ashland, first known as Uniontown, was established in 1815 on a trail blazed and traveled largely by Native Americans in a setting covered by primitive trees nestled in the heart of Ohio. Growing from a single street of dust in the summer and mud in the winter, the town expanded from its agricultural roots to become the hub of industrial Ohio. With the introduction of the railroad, Ashland was escalated to the forefront of the manufacturing giants. By 1915, the little city with big vision saw spectacular achievements and inventions fall on the heels of one another, leading the world in the production of pumps, balloons, animal remedies, and auto jacks. Ashland's past is remembered and admired today by a new generation, which has brought economic change to a city that still carries a big vision for its future.
