Robert - River is the name of the township/village etc. It is where Jenny Wiley is buried. The Big Sandy River does flow by there.

Hello everyone. If someone said to me, "I think your ancestors lived on or near the River in Paintsville," about where are they referring to? Looking at a map, I don't see a big river going through Paintsville. Was there a street named "River" at one time? Thanks.
