When did Kentucky become a slave-free state?

Kentucky became the first state to be carved from the great western wilderness on June 1, 1792; during George Washington's presidency. Kentucky was the fifteenth state to be admitted to the Union and Isaac Shelby, a military veteran from Virginia, was elected the first Governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.


On June 1, 1792, Kentucky became the fifteenth state.
On 1 June 1792, although some would argue that because it is a Commonwealth it never became a state.
AnswerFriday June 1, 1792 Kentucky was named the 15th state of the United States. Correct AnswerKentucky is

a state, however the date is accurate. It was adopted to the United States on 6/1/1792 as a state and later changed into being a Commonwealth, like Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Virginia. It is commonly referred to as a state in generic terminology. However consider the fact that it was admitted to the Union in 1792 as a State. It was the 1850 Constitution that made Kentucky a Commonwealth, and it had already been "a state of the Union" for 58 years when it declared itself to be not a state but a Commonwealth.

It may simply be a matter of semantics, should a US State like California change it's Constitution and declare itself the Ashram of California or the California Commune it would be and remain a US State. Pennsylvania, Massachussetts and Virginia have a legitimate claim to the the title of Commonwealth. Kentucky is more like Constantiople becoming Istanbul or New Amsterdam becoming New York City.
