Am looking for information on the Brown family of Catlettsburg, Boyd County in 1850-1900 time period....Can anyone suggest books (or other research items) that might be available on that time period that list the families of that area and their family history/biographies..

I am particularly interested in Isham (born about 1792 in VA; died before 1860) and his wife Christina Hounshell Brown (born 1796 in VA and died before 1880 in Boyd County). Known children are: Isham Jr, Levisa (married Wilcox), Peter--possibly John and Louisa.

They are in land records in Boyd County in 1850s and appear in first census in 1860 in Catlettsburg, Boyd County.

I do not live in Boyd County area so can not check microfilm records etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanking you in advance.
