   The Givens family is of Scotch-Irish descent, and came first to Virginia, from what part of Ireland is not known. George Givens, grandfather of George Givens, of this town, came to Bourbon county, and built a house on Silas creek, which is part of the division line between Harrison and Bourbon. Samuel Larame had come to Kentucky at the same time George Givens came, and built a house in Harrison county, on Silas creek.
