I know about this book. I have a copy, which was given to me by the author's widow. Bill Thompson wrote it. He was a teacher in Breckinridge Co.KY. It's a good one. Has lots of interesting articles on different towns, people, and stories of Breckinridge Co.KY. I found it extremely interesting. Some examples of articles are:
Formation of Breck. Co.
Big Bill Hardin and the Fort
Glen Dean
Cloverport (several towns profiled)
Lincoln Trail
The Dowell Family(family names include: Huston,Allen,Beard,Murrayy,Kincheloe,Holt & Coleman)
County Folk Lore
History of Catholicism
and others. Small book, 171 pages.
You might be able to order from Mrs. Thompson, directly. Didn't see what EBay was charging;but she may still have copies left. I think hers were $25.00 each.

There's a book up for sale on ebay. I've never heard of it before. Called History and Legend of Breckinridge County, Kentucky. There's a few of our county's names listed. Here's the link

Anyone out there familiar with this book? Is it worthwhile?
