Seeking info on FCI McDowell and previous landowners

I'm researching the links between corporate land ownership, the coal industry, and prisons in Appalachia. I'm trying to trace how the federal government acquired land for FCI McDowell. Any longterm residents of the area know who the prior land owner was and whether and/or not the federal government bought land from individuals or companies? In some other cases land was donated by the corporate landowner (e.g. Pocahontas donated the land for USP Big Sandy in Martin County, KY; land was also donated for Red Onion State Prison in Virginia). Any help appreciated!
