Wofford, Kentucky

Wofford is an unincorporated community in Whitley County, Kentucky, United States. It is located approximately three miles north-northeast of Williamsburg on Route 26.

History

Wofford was initially named Mahan for a local family in residence. When a rural branch of the Williamsburg Post Office was established on April 27, 1900, the community was renamed Wofford (Rennick 1984, p. 323). The post office was later closed and reincorporated into the Williamsburg Post Office.
