- Although the feud theoretically ended in 1891, it wasn’t until 1976 that representatives from the two sides came together to shake hands, and even that wasn’t the end of all contentiousness; in 2000, the issue of access to a historic cemetery led to a legal dispute that set Hatfields against McCoys yet again.

The Hatfield–McCoy Feud involved two American families of the West Virginia–Kentucky area along the Tug Fork of the Big Sandy River from 1863 to 1891. The Hatfields of West Virginia were led by William Anderson "Devil Anse" Hatfield, while the McCoys of Kentucky were under the leadership of Randolph "Ole Ran'l" McCoy.
The eye-for-an-eye-for-an-eye retaliation began: three McCoys were captured by Hatfields under the command of Ellison’s brother Devil Anse, tied to a pawpaw bush, and shot to death.
Oct 3, 2024 · Back in 1878, Randolph McCoy accused Floyd Hatfield, a cousin of Devil Anse Hatfield, of stealing one of his pigs. This accusation led to a trial that further fueled the fire between these two families, setting off a series of violent encounters and disputes that would last for years.
The Hatfields eventually took the McCoy boys into a stand of pawpaw bushes, tied them up and shot them some 40 times. The second big event in the feud happened on New Year's Eve 1887, when Devil Anse's uncle, Jim Vance, led a group of Hatfields into Kentucky to capture Randall McCoy at his farm.
