Weston, Kentucky

Weston is a Crittenden county community about 12 miles northwest of Marion on the Ohio River at the mouth of Camp Creek. An important river port in the early nineteenth century, Weston declined with the decline in river commerce and little remains of the old town.

Weston was incorporated in 1854, but was later dissolved.

A Westonburg post office opened in 1859, was renamed Weston in 1877, and closed in 1916.
