SNIPPETZ LOOKS AT THE ORIGINAL FAMILY FEUD by Deborah Stumpf
T
he setting was the mid 19th century along the Tug Fork River, a tributary that ran between Kentucky and West Virginia. Two families – the HatďŹ elds and McCoys – once peaceful and even intermarried went to war, so to speak. Was it over the Civil War, a woman or a pig? Maybe all of the above. Nevertheless, the feud between these two families spawned movies, television shows and provided an historic setting for the tourist industry.
