Genealogy From The Record & The Breathitt County Historical Society

The Record is the official quarterly publication of the Breathitt County Historical Society. It has been published continuously since 1980. Through the years many members of the Breathitt County Historical Society have shared family histories in its pages. Since the earlier issues of The Record are out of print, information from its pages is hard to get. Thus, we are gleaning some of the more interesting material to share, courtesy of the Breathitt County Historical Society. Please note that every member of the Breathitt County Historical Society gets "The Record" as part of their membership which is $7.00 per year. (You are invited to join. Follow this link to the home page of The Breathitt County Historical Society for membership information and how to order books the Society has for sale.)
