❤❤❤wow that's so amazing this is a question idk who the parents are to the three brothers I know ones named James and David and Melvin McCoy they have a sister I forget her name but James and David passed I would appreciate any information thank you have a blessed day ❤❤❤
I know this guy is trying his best but he doesn't know as much as he thinks. He's getting names wrong and a lot of stuff. I know he means well. Like i said everyone has a different story.
Well I'm kin to the McCoy family also. I've always been told that when Harmen was killed that it was his daughter's footprints in the snow . The other guy is the one who found him died. I think all of us that live in the Appalachian area have different stories about the feud. My grandma had pictures, newspapers, bullets and much more about the feud. I've seen almost every movie about this feud and video I can find and everyone has a different story. I don't even think the papers got it right back then. One reporter made his was to talk to Devil Anse. Nobody ever ask Randall his side. And it didn't start over a pig. I can't stand that lie. Yes we are Hillbillies and proud of it but we are smart people. Heck how many of y'all out there can put food on your table without a store? Myself I think ole Randall got the worst of it. Children dead wife never the same house burned. He ask for justice and never got it. They hung cotton top. No other Hatfield for the murders. After all he went through in life the man burns to death. I still walk the trail from time to time just thinking about why that feud had to happen anyway. I hope they have finally found peace.
I just happened to watch the Kevin Costner series 'Hatfields and McCoys' last night. This was a great companion video to the series. Its great that Mr. Phillips was able to fill in blanks in that series.
My grandmother on my dad side was Georgia Hatfield. She married my grandfather Matthew Williams. They got married in the late 1920 move to Colorado to get into cattle ranching. They got some of there cattle stolen and got out of the cattle business. The bought a old bar and motel . It had old poker tables old spending wheels. This is in the late 1920's. The had alcohol gambling and rooms. In 1935 the new York mob came in and broke all of the gambling table's and the new York mob told them to leave town it was Colorado Springs they left and went to texas.
My grandfather and his sister taught school somewhere in the Tug Valley in WV. They were Herman S Sweet and Brunelle Sweet. Does anyone know where it was? It was about 1925?
I am a McCoy. I am a descendant of Randal McCoy. My father was very interested in learning all about this feud. And I was always interested in what he told me.
I am Jared E. McCoy. I am a 5th gen McCoy (That I know of) born in May 6th of 1975. I knew of my Great Great grandfather. I lived in the time with my great grandfather He passed in 88. I still know my grandfather and my father to this day! I will find out how far back we go. My grandpa said that us McCoy's are not part of that brood! Now I wonder! My grandpa says also the earth is flat and will argue this point!
My mother almost married a McCoy I asked if he was from the hattfield McCoy group that were dire enemies and he said yes he was. I can believe it he had the most horrible temper until he found out he was dying of cancer then he found Gods grace and made amends to my mom .
Just for the record having eaten squirrels and gone squirrel hunting which is a ton of fun, but imho they are not all that great to eat, oh for sure you won’t go hungry and plenty filling, but it’s not like eating filet mignon lol by any stretch of the imagination
Filet mignon sucks. Tomahawk ribeyes are the way to go, IMO. Squirrel is fine eating too, with gravy and dumplings. Squirrel has it's own flavor, not a bad flavor either.
I use to hunt squirrel fried was my favorite I was always particularly to fried. My x father inlaw loved the brains he would get mad if caught me throwing the head away. He would make squirrel stew the first time I ate his squirrel stew I didn't know he put the head in I went to get me a bowl at the stove fishing around in thier for a back leg head pops up to the top I look around said you put the heads in he said that's the best part. Kinda got get used to seeing that squirrel skull with them teeth shining at ya when you get a bowl. Good stew
I am related to Frank Phillips of the feud fame. Every story of the Hatfield-McCoy feud that I have ever heard has interesting variations. Too much time and too much embellishment has passed to ever know the real details. The Hatfield-McCoy Feud was the first example of “yellow journalism” in the United States or into today’s terms : exaggerated facts written to sell newspapers or other media. Many other families in the area including Blankenships, Clines, Dotsons, Hurleys, Rowes, Vances etc. were also involved in the feud.
@@brandonraykirk2925 yes he did, a Frank Phillips, my maternal grandfather married Emma Hatfield, my maternal grandmother. My grandpa Phillips was a farmer in Paragould Arkansas in the 1940s and early 1950s.
“The boys were just walking along and Ellison started on them” lol. Completely different account from a Hatfield descendant video I just watched . Priceless
Great video. I’ve spent a great deal of time researching this subject after connecting my branch of the hatfield family tree. Someday soon anyone old enough to have direct ties to this part of our history will be gone and having stories like this gentleman’s will be priceless.
In life there's hope and pain but revenge, revenge will never bring redemption Just put your trust in Jesus Christ He Is Salvation See John 5:24 believe me keep my Words Believe In Him That Sent Me You Will Not come under the Judgment you will pass from death to life Eternal See John 6:40 Honour The Son as You Honour the Father (That is God's Will) you have a free will to choose remember That !! Hebrews 13:5 Never Will I Leave You Never Will I Forsake You !! Trust Jesus Christ Know That He Is Always Faithful and True Everlasting To Everlasting Godbless You

Yes Roseanne MCcoy s daughter name was Sarah Elizabeth, i have seen a few pic"s of Roseanne, She was very Beautiful, Yes some said she died of grief, because of the way her father looked at her she said she cold see the hate in his eyes for, But i guess the loss of her daughter did not help also, i think her ex ended up marrying her cousin But was still unfateful
