Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William McCoy and His Descendants: A Genealogical History of the Family of William McCoy, One of the Scotch Families Coming to America Before the Revolutionary War, Who Died in Kentucky About the Year 1818; Also a History of the Family of Alexander McCoy IN the following pages is given the history of an average Western family. It began with a middle - class Scotch family, that came to America about the middle of the eighteenth cen tury. This family, like most others emigrating to this country in an early day, remained for a time in the eastern portion of the American Colonies, their descendants rapidly multiplying and swarming westward. A few of the mccoys who came to America at this time remained in Maryland, and others in Pennsylvania and Virginia; but the great majority of them are scattered over the northern half of the Western States, between the Alleghenies and the Pacific Ocean. The two brothers, Daniel and Alexander, sons of William mccoy, first settled in Maryland, then in Pennsylvania and Virginia, and lastly in Kentucky. Most of their sons and daughters, finding the institution of slavery distasteful to them, pushed north ward and westward, until they are found in all the Northwest ern States; and yet some are in Tennessee, Georgia, Arkansas, and Texas.

Download or read book The Feud written by Dean King and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The gripping new history of the most famous blood feud in American history, by the bestselling author of Skeletons on the Zahara. For more than a century, the enduring feud between the Hatfields and the McCoys has been American shorthand for passionate, unyielding, and even violent confrontation. Yet despite numerous articles, books, television shows, and feature films, nobody has ever told the in-depth true story of this legendarily fierce-and far-reaching-clash in the heart of Appalachia. Drawing upon years of original research, including the discovery of previously lost and ignored documents and interviews with relatives of both families, bestselling author Dean King finally gives us the full, unvarnished tale, one vastly more enthralling than the myth. Unlike previous accounts, King's begins in the mid-nineteenth century, when the Hatfields and McCoys lived side-by-side in relative harmony. Theirs was a hardscrabble life of farming and hunting, timbering and moonshining-and raising large and boisterous families-in the rugged hollows and hills of Virginia and Kentucky. Cut off from much of the outside world, these descendants of Scots-Irish and English pioneers spoke a language many Americans would find hard to understand. Yet contrary to popular belief, the Hatfields and McCoys were established and influential landowners who had intermarried and worked together for decades. When the Civil War came, and the outside world crashed into their lives, family members were forced to choose sides. After the war, the lines that had been drawn remained-and the violence not only lived on but became personal. By the time the fury finally subsided, a dozen family members would be in the grave. The hostilities grew to be a national spectacle, and the cycle of killing, kidnapping, stalking by bounty hunters, and skirmishing between governors spawned a legal battle that went all the way to the United States Supreme Court and still influences us today. Filled with bitter quarrels, reckless affairs, treacherous betrayals, relentless mercenaries, and courageous detectives, THE FEUD is the riveting story of two frontier families struggling for survival within the narrow confines of an unforgiving land. It is a formative American tale, and in it, we see the reflection of our own family bonds and the lengths to which we might go in order to defend our honor, our loyalties, and our livelihood.

Download or read book Feud written by Altina L. Waller and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hatfield-McCoy feud, the entertaining subject of comic strips, popular songs, movies, and television, has long been a part of American folklore and legend. Ironically, the extraordinary endurance of the myth that has grown up around the Hatfields and McCoys has obscured the consideration of the feud as a serious historical event. In this study, Altina Waller tells the real story of the Hatfields and McCoys and the Tug Valley of West Virginia and Kentucky, placing the feud in the context of community and regional change in the era of industrialization. Waller argues that the legendary feud was not an outgrowth of an inherently violent mountain culture but rather one manifestation of a contest for social and economic control between local people and outside industrial capitalists -- the Hatfields were defending community autonomy while the McCoys were allied with the forces of industrial capitalism. Profiling the colorful feudists "Devil Anse" Hatfield, "Old Ranel" McCoy, "Bad" Frank Phillips, and the ill-fated lovers Roseanna McCoy and Johnse Hatfield, Waller illustrates how Appalachians both shaped and responded to the new economic and social order.
