The Hatfield-McCoy feud, a famous family feud, took place in the Border of West Virginia and Kentucky.

This notorious conflict between the Hatfield family from West Virginia and the McCoy family from Kentucky spanned several decades in the late 19th century, fueled by a mix of personal disputes, land ownership issues, and regional tensions. The feud gained national attention and has since become a symbol of Appalachian culture, often romanticized in literature and media. The rugged landscapes of the Appalachian region served as both a backdrop and a significant factor in the events of the feud, highlighting the complexities of life in the mountains during that era.
