Ephraim Hatfield Info
Ephraim Hatfield, born in 1812, was the father of the active participants in the Hatfield and McCoy feud. Because of his massive size he was best known throughout the region of the hills as "Big Eaf." He was said to have been seven feet tall and to have weighed well over three hundred pounds.

“Devil Anse” Hatfield Dead
Noted Feudist of Hatfield - McCoy Mountain War Dies at 85
Huntington, W. Val., Jan. 7 - Anderson Hatfield, long ago nicknamed “Devil” Anse” for his exploits in the Hatfield-McCoy feud that brought violent deaths to so many members of both clans, died quietly in his bed last night of pneumonia at the family home at Island Creek, Logan County. The old mountaineer was in his 86th year.
The famous feud started in 1880 with the theft of some hogs by a McCoy, but did not become murderous until Ellison Hatfield was fatally wounded in a gun fight two years later. “Devil Anse” then captured three McCoys and kept the in the mountains until the wounded Hatfield died, when he and his followers shot all three prisoners.
The brutal burning of the McCoy home in 1888 and the killing of male and female McCoys as they fled from the flames has been laid to “Cap” Hatfield, eldest son of “Devil Anse.” The latter, in 1911, after two of his other sons had been shot to death announced his reformation, was baptized and joined the church.
