This is in our state constitution:


Kentucky Constitution
Section 233
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

General laws of Virginia in force in this State until repealed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All laws which, on the first day of June, one thousand seven hundred and ninety- two, were in force in the State of Virginia, and which are of a general nature and not local to that State, and not repugnant to this Constitution, nor to the laws which have been enacted by the General Assembly of this Commonwealth, shall be in force within this State until they shall be altered or repealed by the General Assembly.

Text as Ratified on: August 3, 1891, and revised September 28, 1891.
History: Not yet amended.

Probably is because Kentucky was Virginia before we became a state.
