Yes I am aware of Charles Wells Book, The Annals of Floyd Co. I have read the book. His book is available in the Denver Public Library here in Colorado where I live and I am sure it is available in libraries in Kentucky. Charles Wells stopped at a certain time frame in his book James Alan Williams, continued with court records, where Mr.Wells left off, and some of these court records were discovered in archives at the courthouse and no one had ever seen them before,including Mr.Wells.

Circuit Court Records 1808-1824 Floyd Co.Ky To: [email protected], [email protected] Cc: [email protected], [email protected] Date: Saturday, July 11, 2009, 5:41 PM Charles C. Wells published a book entitled "Annals of Floyd County,  Kentucky 1800-1824".  This book was published in 1983 and has been a great  resource for many researchers over the years.  The contents are:  Deed  Book A & B, County Court Books, 1, 2, 3, & 4 and the Marriage Bonds for  1808-1826. My understanding is that the book is no longer available for sale. Copies  are in most of the Kentucky Historical Libraries as well as Floyd, Johnson and  many of the eastern Kentucky counties.

Alan,  Thank you so much, I really appreciate all that you do and share with  me. The link on my website  is: http://nancygayheart.com/earlygearheartsfloydcocircuitcourt1808-1824.htm You   truely are a hard working researcher and I am proud you are my  cousin!! It is a tedious job to transcribe these old records and  requires alot of time. These old court records might not have ever been  seen, if it wasn't for you,Alan and your hard work, in transcribing and  publishing books on them. Stop by and read the Gearheart entries, other  surnames are in these also on my website and stop by and buy a book,  from a wonderful list of court record books on Alan;s  website..
