You might try:
: Magoffin Institute began almost 100
: years ago near Salyersville in
: Magoffin County. However, for some
: reason the school moved to a remote
: section of Breathitt County on Frozen
: Creek called Mountain Valley. Until
: the 1970s it included a grade and high
: school, both now closed.
:
: Information might be obtained from
: Oneida Institute in Clay County. They
: own the land where Magoffin Institute
: was located in Breathitt County, and
: in later years the two schools were
: closely connected.
:
: Also, Mr. James Allen in Salyersville
: would be a good source of information.
: I don't have his address, but he
: shares photos in the Kentucky
: Explorer. He once showed me some
: photos of Magoffin Institute while it
: was still located in Magoffin County.
:
: Also, you may want to contact the
: Magoffin County Historical Society in
: Salyersville. They are very active,
: and probably can help.
:
: There are probably graduates of the
: Institute living in the Frozen area of
: Breathitt County who might help.
