  	20230913GHLn- Ryan Hardesty August 5 2023 · Hatfield-McCoy Feud History This wonderful photo, from about 1910, is of Preacher Anse Hatfield's 74th birthday. This photo, I would argue, is a better representation of who we were. This photo includes the extended family of Preacher Anse, as well as other members of his church and neighbors. My own great grandmother, Octavia Farley Hatfield, is the young girl in the white dress in the center of the group. This photo shows a congregation. This photo represents how those people thought of themselves. They are openly facing the world, celebrating the birthday of a man who ran both the local church as well as the local school (he had a school in his home and educated, among other people, your Henry Drury Hatfield who later became governor of West Virginia). These people are not afraid of the world. They are a family, a congregation, a community. I have often felt that, on some level, this photo was explicitly designed as an answer to the widely-circulated images of the Hatfield family, armed to the teeth and hiding in their "mountain fortress."

Reply 3w Ryan Hardesty Barbara Chafin Aunt Phoebe was your great grandmother? I did not know that. I remember Phoebe well. Reply 3w Barbara Chafin Ryan Hardesty Phoebe was married to Thomas Farley , her parents were Ephraim and Phoebe Vance Hatfield . Phoebe Vance Hatfield was a sister to Nancy Devil Anse Hatfield mother , and Jim Vance . Ephraim and Phoebe owned Rose Siding hollow, now called Lovers Lane , they’re buried up there too .Reply 3w Ryan Hardesty Barbara Chafinwrong Phoebe. I meant Phoebe Farley. Daughter of James Farley and Lydia Stafford. Reply 3w Thomas Fannin Barbara Chafin My grandmother was a Farley and her mother was a Hatfield Reply 1w Keith Richmond My great great grandmother must be in that picture. She is Rebecca Chafin Hatfield, Levicy’s sister. On the 1910 census, she and her daughter were living with Anse and Levicy. Unfortunately, I don’t know what she looks like Reply 5w Ryan Hardesty Keith Richmond Keith - I don't think. She didn't live on Blackberry Creek in 1910 when this was taken, and this is mostly Preacher Anse's kids and some close neighbors - the Farleys and a few others. Reply 3w Ryan Hardesty This is the most beautifully arranged group photo I have ever seen. The line of little children is particularly awesome. Several of those little folk are sisters of my great grandmother, Octavia Farley Hatfield. Reply 5w Dewey Norman I seen a colored enhanced picture of this photo in days gone by with numbers on it . My Great Grandmother Elizabeth Hatfield is in the front row with a child in her lap . I cant remember how long it has been since I seen this picture . Reply 2w Sue Larck I seen a picture like this at my Grandparents house and I couldn’t make out the writing on the back only certain words,
