The family betrayers were Devil Anse Hatfield which moved from Blackberry KY to Beech Creek WV. and became a confederate. There is actually NO civil war record available for Randolf McCoy. Read 39th KY Infantry to see for yourself the 99 percentage! Altina Waller admitted in the first chapter of her book that she spent the "BULK" her studies in the Logan Co. West Virgina court house. Heck, virtually everyone knows that the "BULK" of the feud happened in Pike Co. KY. Also in the first chapter Altina Waller stated that she liked some feudist and others she did not like. The remainging 300 pages Altina describes in details the ones she does not like. On the back cover of her book she admitts that she is a Hatfield ally because the back cover states A SOUTHERN STUDIES/NORTH CAROLINA. Altina is such an intelligent person. If she could have only been persuaded to spend some time in Pikeville Ky court house she would have writen the first and only true book of the feud. My question to Waller would be: Why did you not spend the "BULK" of your time in Pike Co. Ky where the "BULK" of the feud occured. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
