Somebody correct me if I am wrong....Guyandotte sat at the spot where the Guyandotte River entered the Ohio River. Now remember that this is 1800's. Rivers would have been main thoroughfairs. The Guyandotte River would have served as a route for MANY families living as far south in what is now WV as Logan....tying them with trade on the Ohio River.

As far as I know...since Cabell was created out of Kanawha in 1809, these records would be in Cabell. Also, Marsha is right about where Guyandotte sits. It is on the east side of the Guyandotte River where it empties into the Ohio River. Still called Guyandotte today, but is really a part of Huntington legally.
