CATLETTSBURG. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, eastern Ky. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. There are Catlettsburgs in Ohio and Kentucky, although the title probably honors the Boyd County, Kentucky, town at the confluence of the Ohio and Big Sandy rivers. It was named for an early pioneering family, Alexander and Horatio Catlett, who settled the area at the end of the 18th century. The town was also early known as Mouth of Sandy and Big Sandy Landing.
