Kentucky was a part of Virginia from 1789 until 8 November 1792 during which time a single US Representative from Virginia was elected from what was to later become the State of Kentucky. After becoming a US State on 1 June of 1792, it achieved on 9 November 1792 representation by two Congressmen until 1803 when it was given six seats in the US House. It has had as many as 13 seats (1833 - 1843), but that number has varied and it has slowly decreased to the 2010 level of 6 seats.
