Reply28w Kimberly McCoy-Kropp Marilyn Cota history has made us all believe it was over a "pig". I'm a McCoy descendant, yes a pig was involved, but it was a McCoy who betrayed the family over ownership of the pig. The term oil between the 2 men actually started when Devil Anse deserted his infantry during the war. Him and Randall both served as conf. soldiers.

'AUNT SALLIE' DIES IN LOGAN
Prominent Figure, 92, Succumbs at Home
LOGAN, July 28 (Special). --
Arrangements were made today for the burial of Mrs Sallie Garrett, 92, one of Logan county's best known residents. "Aunt Sallie," as she was known throughout the countryside, died Sunday at her home.
She was the widow of Rev W.D. (Uncle Dyke) Garrett, who died three years ago at the age of 96.
When they celebrated their 71st wedding anniversary on Feb. 19, 1938., he said: "If I married 50 times, I'd marry Sallie every time."
"Uncle Dyke," a pioneer mountain preacher, was a Confederate veteran of the war between the states. He fought with Captain John Butcher's "Logan Wildcates."
The Garretts lived at their home at Curry on the Garrett fork of Big creek, near Chapmanville, for 62 years, and "Aunt Sallie" remained there after her husband's death. The lived in a log cabin until 30 years ago, when a new farmhouse was built.
Mrs. Garrett, a native Logan countian, was a daughter of the late William and Mary Ann Butcher Smith.
"Aunt Sallie," the mother of nine children, was a young school teacher when she married "Uncle Dyke." She taught her husband how to read the Bible, because at that time he could not read or write. Industrious by nature, she was seamstress for her whole family and made her first dress when she was 13 years old.
Her husband was a mountain preacher for 65 years and was noted for converting "Devil Anse" Hatfield of Hatfield-McCoy feud fame.
Mrs. Garrett remained mentally alrert until her death. She sewed and did light housework until about four years ago. In recent years she had a daughter read to her.

UNCLE DYKE: THE QUICKEST MAN I EVER SAW
Until the war came, Uncle Dyke Garrett was like other young men in Logan County, West Virginia - a tall, slender, gangling six-foot two-inch farm boy who loved music, hunting, and woodlore. Sallie Smith, who married Dyke after the war, recalled that he was “the wildest, most carefree youngster on Big Creek. A neighbor of his, Henry Clay Everett, once recalled the impression Garrett made on him:
"He was tall and slim and worked at his father’s farm in Cabell. A low bridge gave way beneath the weight of an ox team once. I’ll never forget how fast Dyke Garrett moved. He was up in a flash, with his big, hawkbill knife open in his hand. One ox had fallen on one side of the wreckage, another on the other side. Almost in one motion he cut the thongs that held them together. That saved the team. He was the quickest man I ever saw ..."
When the war came, he joined the Logan Wildcats. When the troop was taken into the Confederate Army, however, the medical examiner found that Dyke was deaf in one ear. He would have been discharged, but agreed to join the troop as a chaplain.
His daughter, Ida Rose Garrett, said he was in a few small battles during the war. Yet, perhaps the most important experience during the war was that he began to think seriously about Christianity. When he came home, he married Sallie Smith, the daughter of William (Crawley) and Mary Anne Butcher Smith. “It was my job to tame him,” Sallie Garrett once recalled.
Then he heard Alexander Lunsford preaching one day and made his decision to be baptized and soon began preaching himself. He was tireless in that work.
Uncle Dyke traveled up and down every road in the county preaching, baptizing, performing marriage ceremonies for young couples, and preaching funerals. By the end of his life, one sentimental magazine editor called him, “The Good Shepherd of the Hills.” Jim and Ida Rose Garrett, two of his children, had fond memories of their father:
"He was always looking out for somebody else, say like a widow somewhere who needed help. I remember him taking his one mule and one of the older boys over the hill to a widow, when he was in his fifties, about once a week to cut and gather wood for her and keep her in a supply that way.
"And back in those times, they had their meal ground over at Pecks Mill, a gristmill settled by Ed Peck. He would always take enough to have some left for a widow over on Mill Creek.
"My dad once strung a little water mill about a mile down the road from his house. He would not toll a widow woman’s corn. The taking of a certain amount of meal, usually about one-eighth from a customer, in payment for grinding the corn, was known as tolling."
Uncle Dyke Garret was very proud of two achievements in his long life. One was the baptism of J. Green McNeely. The other was the baptism of Anderson (Devil Anse) Hatfield. The baptism of McNeely gave him much help with his ministry because McNeely also became a preacher and the two traveled together through the county until the end of Garrett’s life.
The second baptism is probably Garrett’s most well remembered action. Hatfield, whose family was involved in the bitter feud that tore through Logan County and Pike County, Kentucky, in the 1880s and 1890s, was baptized in Island Creek in October 1911. Garrett, who always had called his friend by his proper name, Anderson, instead of the more popular nickname, Devil Anse, remembered that day with more happiness than any other, according to some of Garrett’s friends.
When the ceremony ended, he mounted his horse and rode to Crooked Creek, where he often shared a meal with the family of Scott McDonald. That day, after he said grace, he turned to young Mollie McDonald and smiled. “Well, Mollie,” he said. “I baptized the devil today.”
Perhaps that particular baptism gave Garrett so much joy because he and Hatfield had been fellow members of Camp Straton United Confederate Veterans.

The picture is not the best quality, but this picture is taken at the funeral of two of my great uncles who were killed in WW1. Preacher Garrett also married my great grandparents, John Lewis Vance and Mollie Mae Lucas in 1906.

"Aunt Sallie," the mother of nine children, was a young school teacher when she married "Uncle Dyke." She taught her husband how to read the Bible, because at that time he could not read or write. Industrious by nature, she was seamstress for her whole family and made her first dress when she was 13 years old.
Her husband was a mountain preacher for 65 years and was noted for converting "Devil Anse" Hatfield of Hatfield-McCoy feud fame.
Mrs. Garrett remained mentally alrert until her death. She sewed and did light housework until about four years ago. In recent years she had a daughter read to her.

Hatfield Family on porch-

Uncle Dyke Garrett (with white beard). Uncle Dyke stands directly behind Levicy and Devil Anse.

Dyke happened to be a longtime friend, hunting buddy, and spiritual mentor to the feud patriarch. It was Uncle Dyke who eventually led Devil Anse to the Lord, and baptized the feudist on Sept. 23, 1911 in the waters of Island Creek. This image may have been taken early on the day of the baptism.

Hatfield descendant, Wendy Griffith - a reporter with CBN News, co-anchor of The 700 Club, and the Anchor of Christian World News - once reported, "Devil Anse spent the last 10 years of his life in peace, knowing that he was forgiven, his sins washed away in the cool mountain stream.”

I'm a relative to the Hatfield family. Borned in Cow Creek, WVA near Davey... got relocated over 55 years ago to the northeast. We went to visit the old stomping grounds years ago and some of my kin brought us up into the holler and showed us an old cemetery that had a few headstones bearing the names of some of the Hatfield clan... that's when I discovered we were related to them. Pretty interesting.

Does anyone know what started the feud between the two men?

Brian L. Hatfield
Marilyn Cota : reputedly, about the ownership of a pig.

Kimberly McCoy-Kropp
Marilyn Cota history has made us all believe it was over a "pig". I'm a McCoy descendant, yes a pig was involved, but it was a McCoy who betrayed the family over ownership of the pig. The term oil between the 2 men actually started when Devil Anse deserted his infantry during the war. Him and Randall both served as conf. soldiers. This was not punishable as today.Reply28w

Marilyn Cota my family is related to the McCoy's as well. We're probably related. My family line is through Moses McCoy. Brother to William.
