Taken from The Johnson County Kentucky Historical and Genealogical Society Web site:
“Blair, Frank
“1930
“BATTLE ON LITTLE PAINT “BIG FRANK” BLAIR Guns flared again on the head of Little Paint in Johnson County near the Magoffin county line and as a result “Big Frank” Blair is dead and Hobart Saylor is at his home with several wounds in his body, and Arthur Saylor, brother of Hobart Saylor is in the Johnson county Jail at Paintsville in connection with the shooting. The shooting took place at the home of Blair Sunday night. In the absence of evidence before the examining trial not much could be learned of the affair, nor what caused the trouble. However, it is claimed that the Saylor brothers went to the home of Blair and the shooting began. When the firing ceased Blair lay dead on his own front porch with a charge from a shot gun in his breast just over the heart while Hobart Saylor lay in the yard desperately wounded. The charge from the shot gun was evidently fired at close range as the hole could be covered with a silver dollar. Saylor had been shot with a shot gun and a heavy caliber revolver. Sheriff W. M. Preston was notified of the killing 7 o’clock Sunday evening and left immediately for the scene of the trouble with seven deputies and went to the home of Arthur Saylor where four of the brothers had assembled and arrested Arthur Saylor. As the sheriff knocked on the door the door was thrown open from the inside and Arthur Saylor pointed and automatic shot gun at the officers. However, he was covered by the officers before he had a chance to shoot. A search of the inside of the house disclosed three more shot guns in addition to the one held by Arthur Saylor. The guns were taken charge of by the officers and brought to the Sheriffs office. The outcome of the shooting is said to be an old family grudge, as the parties to the affair are closely related. Frank Blair being an uncle of the Saylor Brothers. Blair was a witness against Dennie Saylor, brother of Hobart and Arthur Saylor, who is now in the penitentiary charged with the murder of Lee Gibson, Cassie Gipson, Bernie Gipson and Wallace Hannah on Silver Heel Branch in April 1929. Blairs testimony at the trial of Dennie Saylor is believed to have led to the trouble. Sunday night’s shooting occurred near the scene of the slaughter on Silver Heel Branch in 1929.”

Allen of Martin, KY that William Allen was found dead in the woods after leaving the home of his brother George Allen who lived in Floyd Co. It was told that animals had partly eaten his body by the time he was found. It is not known exactly when he died but the entry in the Vital Statistics is 8 Feb 1854. Clyde Allen says the story is that there was some kind of a party or gathering that lasted for days at the home of George Allen, and William grew tired and left for his home in Breathitt Co., KY. It is not known where he is buried.
