Mccoys HATFIELD AND McCOY FAMILY FEUD Bang! This was a sound heard often in the Tug Valley area during the Hatfield and McCoy family feud. It was the sound of rifles blowing off shots and the sound of the Judge trying to keep order in the Logan County Courthouse. The Tug Valley area divided West Virginia and Kentucky. The McCoys lived on the Kentucky side and the Hatfields lived on the West Virginia side (Waller 1). That means that they were both on the Confederate side during the Civil War. Union sympathizers were rare in the Tug Valley. Asa Harmon McCoy was one of those Union sympathizers. He joined the Union Army in 1864. He was later killed by a Confederate guerilla unit known as the Logan Wildcats, when he returned home on January 7, 1865 (Waller 17). This was the cause of the 30 year feud between the Hatfields and the McCoys. The Hatfields lived on the West Virginia side of the Tug and were lead by William Anderson Hatfield, better known as “Devil Anase” (Waller 1). Devil Anase was tall, with stooped shoulders, a black beard and a prominent nose (Waller 2).
