Founded by the Louisville Mining & Manufacturing Company, it bears the abbreviation of its home state (Kentucky), and the termination of the state in which it is located.[5] A post office was established at Kyana in 1882, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1982.[6] Kyana was the site of a plane crash on August 28, 1948. A two-seat Aeronca training plane piloted by William Mullen, Jr. was flying at a low altitude when it suddenly dived into the ground in a field near Kyana. The passenger in the plane, Emil Prechtel of nearby Schnellville, died as a result of injuries from the crash. The pilot survived.[7] Notable peopleJoel Newkirk, Major League pitcher (Chicago Cubs) GeographyKyana is located at {{coord|38|18|18|N|86|46|56|W|type:city}}.
