For many years, there was a fued between the Hatfield's & McCoy families beginning in the early 1860's through 1891 when the fued finally came to an end. Do you know Why or How it came to an end.

Joe, without going through my history books I am only going to tell you what my memory serves up today. I think that one of the Hatfield's and one of the McCoy's children fell in love with each other. Their determination to see each other finally helped the family work to a resolution of the feud. Hollywood has made movies on this subject but I remember many years ago in my life reading something about this that was a documented article, so you may be able to find it, hope you do, John
