Leo dear you don't owe us any explanation your true followers including myself love what you and Heather do and anything you make from this great work you do here for your channel you dam well deserved and more. You just keep doing what you're doing because your seriously preserving our history and doing it honestly and that's more than I can say about the narrative history we've been lied to about so I admire your honesty greatly it's like a breath of fresh air. Never stop telling and taking us a long on this awesome channel. Y'all work hard to get this out to everyone and we could never pay u enough ever for your honest truth and preservation of our true history Love y'all Lori in Louisville Kentucky
Arnold Norman,Kelly Norman,Jessie Norman ,Elvie Jean Smith we're 4 of 12 children of Ted & Bessie Norman whom are also there!As well as Hazel Smith was their Granddaughter!😇❤️🙏 My Grandparents & Uncle's/Aunt's!😇 Thank You Soo Much for what your doing it's Amazing & May God Bless Y'all! ❤🙏💗🥰
I’m a WV girl living in Florida and I love your channel! It’s unique and that makes it even more special. You and Heather are adorable and I love how friendly, honest and genuine you all are (that’s the WV in you!) sending all my love from Florida!❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
I love the headstones with pictures... there are several headstones 🪦 😀 with pictures in our family cemetery that was filled and closed in the late 1890's. Almost every headstones has a picture. We were there a couple of years ago and it is so strange to turn around and see a picture that looks exactly like me... 👍 the one picture that I could be a twin to died 1854...
I did genealogy of my ancestors in WV for over 20 years. Been in many cemeteries in the mountains just like this one. Such peace! I’m looking forward to the rapture now. It won’t be long and many of your ancestors will be raised. Hopefully you will hear that call to and not have to experience death. God bless you. Wonderful video.
Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania once again! If I was going to write a book on The Hatfields&McCoys, you folks would be consulted FIRST. This is an amazing, fascinating, and WELL-RESEARCHED part of your channel. You should get an award from TH-cam! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR DEDICATION AND WORK IN THIS FIELD. 👍🙏☦
Leo I just want to say thank you and Heather for the great videos that you do and all the research you do I'm a 74-year old man in Kansas and you don't know how I appreciate watching your videos God bless you both and if I've messed up in here it's because I talk to text when you get my your fingers don't work too good son take care and keep the videos of coming
Thank you for your video. We enjoy your videos. My dad was born and raised in a very small town in southern Illinois. Yes, he was a hillbilly. The town is still a small town today. I was stumped trying to find more information about his parents and siblings from when he was young. For some strange reason I reached out to the local library. On a chance, I call the library one day and spoke with a very nice lady and she explained that their town does not have the budget to put their little local newspaper on the internet. However, they do have seniors from the community who come in to volunteer to look through the newspaper's archives at the library to find news articles of any kind for people doing geneology. The library does ask for a small donation to pass along to the volunteers for their time and effort. A very nice elderly woman spent hours going through the microfilm between the 1930s and the 1940s. She found some wonderful little articles. The largest article was about my uncle who was killed in WWII. It was actually a couple of articles. I sent a small donation and then the 70+ year old lady sent me a Thank You card. I'm slowly learning unique ways of finding details of stories. Something to think about when you aren't able to find details to an unusual or young death.
Leo,my granparents was Hatfield.they lived on blue springs hollor and we are direct decendants from the feud my great great granpa is constable Floyd Hatfield cousin of Devil anse.we have 2 family cemeterys there one is across from the old blackberry school on the hill to the left facing the school that is where floyd and my great great great grandparents are and the other is up blue springs hollor less than a mile thats where my great grandfather wayne Hatfield floyds son and my grandpa thurman and granma bessie Hatfield and other family members including my brother Larry Taylor if you have the time id love to see you do a video of the cemataries.the cemataries arent marked the one on blue springs is above a old white house that was my grandpa's my cousin gary Hatfield lives behind the cemetery on the hill
I love what you and Heather do. My mom always said you die twice. The first time when you leave your earthly body and the final time when someone speaks your name for the final time. So every time you read those names you are helping keep those people alive. I've lost 3 sons and I never want anyone to stop speaking their names . William ,James, and Zeb. I speak their names every time I can. Thank you guys for what you do and the respect you show for all those people.
Hi, I just read the comment from the West Virginia girl that lives in Florida...I am a Florida girl that wants to live in W Virginia... I have relatives in PA and it's beautiful there..found your wonderful channel today and you got me hooked. I'm so looking forward to the day I live by mountains, streams, and REAL dirt. Thank you for you channel ❤
I am related to everyone in that cemetery. They are all related by blood or marriage. My 2nd great grandmother is there. Elizabeth Hatfield who married William reilly Norman. You can barely read her gravestone now. My dad is there. Eph of all Hatfield is there he is my 4th great grandfather and Anna Mckinney is there she is my 4th great and my 5th great grandmother. My 2 great Aunts are there. Its an entire extended family buried there. My great grandmother Mary Norman and John L. Ratliff are there in unmarked graves or gravestones that have worn off. And I am sure that my great uncle Albert is there also in an unmarked grave. There use to be a cemetery map of everyone buried there. But when the old caretaker died, it was in a notebook, and they can't find it now. Some of us would pay big money to find that notebook! 😏 I know he had it there in 1989. It is now lost forever. 😢
Wow, that is a beautiful resting place. I can feel the history as you walk through and say their names. Thanks Heather for the info on these folks. Leo, I appreciate you taking care of these gravestones by wiping off debris and clearing vines wherever needed. This is the only cemetery I have ever seen with so many pictures! Amazing place!
I really enjoy your videos...I have met Paul Hatfield when he had his museum in Cave City, Ky...really good man!!! I love how he is preserving the family history...and now I have found your videos...time to binge watch a channel about one of the facts of history that I find very interesting...don't mean to babble...again...thanks for the great videos ❤😊
Fascinating. I really enjoy the cemetery tours. My dad and I would wonder around the cemeteries each year looking at different stones during Memorial Day. It was always a special day for me. Thanks to you and Heather for your hard work.
GM2 would probably be Gunner's Mate 2nd class, if my US Navy rank/rate memory serves correctly. My father served on board the USS Iowa in WW2 in the South Pacific. He dies in 1999, but he was also a Gunner's Mate. He was born in 1926 and his father, my grandfather (whom I never met; he died years before I was born) had to sign for my dad to join the USN because he was just 16 years old. But this was wartime and, nowadays, we have no idea what it's like. I have 21 year-old and 15 year-old sons and I can't imaging sending either of them off to fight.
According to my family's story, my 4 times great grandmother and Devil Anse Hatfield's mother were sisters. My great grandmother name was Susan "Susie" Ramey Stapleton. Her husband's name was Robert Stapleton. They had a bunch of kids.
Thank ya'll for all that ya'll do to get these videos to us. I know it can be challenging to do all the research and all the traveling to find all these sights. I truly hope ya'll know how much we appreciate all that ya'll do. Even though I'm not related to these folks, i really appreciate and enjoy the stories. God bless ya'll and may God protect ya'll on all your travels. Keep up the great work.
I just found your channel. Excellent. I really liked how you showcased the Hatfield and then went on to show the other stones. I am a life long Charleston, WV native.
I appreciate your kind words my grandfather was George hyden and my dad which was reserved beside him has been laid to rest at Anderson Hatfield Cemetery.
I like what you said about as long as someone is out there saying their names that they aren't forgotten. I recently lost my dad he is buried by my brother and my mother will he laid to rest on the other side of him. I pray not for a long long time. I want to thank you for what your doing. I am not from there I am from southern Indiana but what your doing is a great thing. ❤
Thank you so much for this video. Its the first of yours that I have seen but not the last! The background history is brilliant and told very respectfully
Bless your heart!! First time I have seen your channel! Was very educational and well presented! Will be watching your videos again.God bless you and your wife.
I love these beautiful cemeteries & the legacies they represent. They remind me every single day that it's not about the dates, it's about the dash. These monuments, however reverent & beautiful, are usually inscribed by 2 dates, the day we were born and the day we die. These were just 2 days in our lives however important, are just an abbreviation for all the days in between. Some are many, some way too few, but all of them are precious. Thank you for your respectful work.
Hi iam from UK i love your videos of people passed away and its fantastic how you know there history , and what thay died of its brilliant and very interesting glad I found your video keep the good work up thank you xx
Leo mentioned how many people die not long after their spouses. Randolph McCoy's uncle and aunt, John and Margaret Jackson McCoy, died the same day. They supposedly promised each other that when one died, the other would soon follow.
My kin are from Panther, WVA., along the Tug Fork River. Many Mc Coy mailboxes along the route into Hurley, Va. Both Hatfield and McCoys have married into my Walker bloodline. My uncle Junior worked in the coal mine with one of them.
I have been trying to follow you and it's been great watching you go through the history. I don't think I learned the truth about the Hatfield and Mccoy. That's a real shame we can't get the real history taught in schools.
You all are so amazing because I'm in my family history right now and in my genealogy there is George Oliver Hatfield Sr, who was married to Cosley Blackburn, who are also supposed to be buried there at Anderson Hatfield Memorial Cemetery in McCarr, Pike, Kentucky! What I find strange is that their son, Jeremiah H Hatfield, died in Pike, Kentucky but was buried in Blackberry City Cemetery in Blackberry City, Mingo County, West Virginia! Let me know what you all think about that, George was related to my late husband!
I wonder what the parents would make of a lass from Lancashire England crying over their 4 year old son nearly 100 years later. Heartbreaking. I know a few Hatfield’s that live near me.
@@thehillbillyfiles I enjoy you both SO much!! Thank you! Heather is a BOSS on research. Camera skills and editing are wonderful and you do an amazing job on naration. God bless and keep you both safe🥰
Thank you doing my history that complete the history niw iam going find the history of the ines from United Kingston they gad lit mire things if good on besides , sadness,they are my cousins the 11 th Moses Hatfield, your a nice nan for sharing
Leo & Heather, thanks for all the work you do! I have a cousin who is descended from the John McCoy line (son of Old Wm). I’m from the Harmon McCoy line. I turned him on to your videos & he just watched the John McCoy cabin video. He wants to know if it’s possible to get a copy of that video. His name is Gary McCoy & I’ll tell him to give you all some money each month! Thanks, D. McCoy Autry
Thank you. We don't keep copies once they're posted, but he can save it in his youtube, or get an app called "mini tool utube downloader" to download it to his computer.
@@thehillbillyfiles I just watched the Ruth McCoy video & wanted to say the pic of Daniel McCoy is not our Daniel. I learned this many yrs ago when I posted it in my ancestry tree. A person who actually owns this ancestor told me very kindly that he is in a Union uniform. Our Daniel predates the CW. I can understand how important it Is that a pic of your ancestor isn’t attributed to another person. I lost count, long ago, how many times my 2X great grandmother’s photo is mistaken for Randall’s wife, Sarah! I still try to correct it when it pops up.

I love your laugh, and history. I was told that my paw paw went to Kentucky to get his wife. We have ties to those folks.
What a beautiful place! Thank you and Heather for making such amazing videos.
Glad you like them!
Leo, you did not mention that Annie, was around 105 years of age. That was a remarkable feat, in those days. Worth mentioning.
Maybe I didn't notice? pretty sure id have mentioned it otherwise.

Another beautiful episode-thank you!
My kin are from Panther, WVA., along the Tug Fork River. Many Mc Coy mailboxes along the route into Hurley, Va. Both Hatfield and McCoys have married into my Walker bloodline. My uncle Junior worked in the coal mine with one of them.
I really enjoyed this video! It was so great how you would put in the extra facts about who their parents were and how they passed away. 😊
Thanks so much ❣️
I love your podcasts. I noticed it is rainy in almost every video.... lol
I have been trying to follow you and it's been great watching you go through the history. I don't think I learned the truth about the Hatfield and Mccoy. That's a real shame we can't get the real history taught in schools.
Really appreciate all you two do
So enjoyed this program be blessed my friend ❤️🙏
Same to you!

It is sad to think that your future, is reached back to pre CW as most of these tombstones do.
Yes GM stands for Gunner's mate 2 is second-class
GM 2 (Gunners Mate 2nd class)

Hello like your videos and the GM2 is Gunnery Mate second class
Willam M. Fields is one of my ancestors.
I could do a family tree of that whole cemetery and show you how everyone there are all related.
Thank you
You're welcome
Leo & Heather, thanks for all the work you do! I have a cousin who is descended from the John McCoy line (son of Old Wm). I’m from the Harmon McCoy line. I turned him on to your videos & he just watched the John McCoy cabin video. He wants to know if it’s possible to get a copy of that video. His name is Gary McCoy & I’ll tell him to give you all some money each month!
Thanks,

Thank you. We don't keep copies once they're posted, but he can save it in his youtube, or get an app called "mini tool utube downloader" to download it to his computer.
@@thehillbillyfiles I just watched the Ruth McCoy video & wanted to say the pic of Daniel McCoy is not our Daniel. I learned this many yrs ago when I posted it in my ancestry tree. A person who actually owns this ancestor told me very kindly that he is in a Union uniform. Our Daniel predates the CW.
I can understand how important it
Is that a pic of your ancestor isn’t attributed to another person. I lost count, long ago, how many times my 2X great grandmother’s photo is mistaken for Randall’s wife, Sarah! I still try to correct it when it pops up.
My tree goes past them to Joseph Hatfield Jr. Just learning about my family 🤷♀️
