Uno is a small unincorporated community in Hart County, Kentucky, United States.
Geography
Uno is located east and slightly north of Horse Cave on U.S. Route 31E.
History
Uno was settled at some point in the mid-19th century. The community's post office was established as Uno at sometime in the 1880s; its original name Clear Point belonged to another town before mail routes were established in the community.
It originally was known locally as a trading point of moonshine. According to tradition, discreet buyers of moonshine would say they were going to "You know" in order to get their supply.
