  	20241214GHLn- WikiTree- We know one more fact about Betty Vance that makes her involvement in the Horton affair unlikely. DNA research on the part of various Vance descendants, coupled with local knowledge passed down through the families, has shown conclusively that some, perhaps all, of Elizabeth Vance’s children were fathered by John Ferrell. John Ferrell was an early settler in the Tug Valley (his family was closely connected with the Hatfield family). He owned a mill near the current town of Matewan, West Virginia, and it was he, not her father Abner, who apparently bought (or helped buy) land for Elizabeth and their children on the Kentucky side of the river (we’ve seen copies of the deeds). So it was John Ferrell who brought Elizabeth and her children to the Tug Valley, who set them up on land just up the river from his own home, and who continued to take care of her, as far as we can tell, until his death.

  	Elizabeth's story Elizabeth was daughter of Abner and Susannah (Howard) Vance. Her father was hanged for murder. He was in an altercation with the Lewis brothers over the sexual advances one had made toward his daughter -- likely Elizabeth. The brothers provoked him into shooting and his shot killed one of them although it was intended for the other. He was sentenced to hang and after three trials the execution day was set. He wrote a song about what happened which is now recognized as the oldest piece of folk music existing. (See story attached to his data) On the day of the execution, Abner address the crowd of nearly 4000 for an hour and a half, saying that life imprisonment was a more fitting punishment. The governor's pardon arrived after he was dead. Elizabeth never married. She was sister to Nancy Vance, the mother of Devil Anse Hatfield. Her own son, James, cousin to Devil Anse became known as Bad Jim Vance. gkobryan1added this on 27 Apr 2011 RoChaVaoriginally submitted this to Vance Family Tree on 25 Feb 2009 John Ferrell and Elizabeth Vance Never married.
