Cap Hatfield- his home and grave 160 years after he was born.-Hatfield McCoy Feud Files
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2024
- 160 years ago this month, William Anderson Jr. (Cap) was born to the infamous clan leader William Anderson (Devil Anse) Hatfield in Logan county West Virginia. The second son to Devil Anse and Levisa Hatfield, he was clearly one of, if not THEE most ruthless of the family in his early years. He eventually became a man of god and changed his ways as he became older as many do. But the wake of damage left was real.
We revisit the homesite and grave of him and his close family. The only video of its kind in existence to date.

I've not been down that way since the new road got built. When I was going down Island Creek way, it was very sad driving by there and seeing that home rot away. So much history has been lost, thanks to both of you for keeping it going! God Bless you and Heather, (Glen). WV.
Too bad that house couldn’t have been saved!!! Up here in Pa and eastern Ohio and northern WV I’ve seen alot of old log homes built back then still being used. I’ve seen some as far back as late 1790s 😎💪🇺🇸🙏 I love this old history
Murderers all. Hey UTube can’t you find someone else to pester, what are you a gay liberal
Vance, Hatfields, McCoys, Browns, and Brumfields and Thompsons all very very historic names in southern West Virginia. I’m from Lincoln County myself and I have family in the mountains and I believe I have lots of Hatfield relatives from the area of Logan. This place here. West Virginia. Is the most prominent history you could ever sit and read over. It needs much more light and respect
Can anyone find my Great Grandma's last place she lived and where she is layed to rest!!! Please
Sarah m.Wolford McCoy
That's a beautiful headstone in a beautiful spot.
My Granny was born in 1900 and lived 100 years. All those changes in their world. Can you just imagine?! I'd love to hear what they thought of the differences in their childhood years and all the advances in everything by the 1970s when they passed.
If you bring a pray bottle of water to squirter on the older headstones sometimes that helps bring out the letters. Just plain water.
I just love your videos. I live in Detroit, MI and my family is from Canada, but I love seeing and hearing about your family heritage. It's so comforting for some reason :)
Agreed I’m in eastern Ontario. I might get down there but if not I’m seeing it!
I've been all over those woods that's in my part of West Virginia. Makes me homesick
We literally just got home today from visiting Kentucky from AL and did the Hatfield McCoy driving tour (not all the stops because we had small kids with us) I wish I had known where this was! Love your videos ❤
Also.. I bout fainted walking up the hill to the Hatfield gravesite.. 😅
My goodness I might be related to you. I'm a decendant of the Hatfield clan. My great gramma told me in 1978 that she was a Hatfield decendant. She was in her 90's then. Her name was Lucy Hatfield. And I believe her. She was a sweet gramma. Bless her heart. She passed away shortly after our visit & our 5 generation picture with her.
❤❤❤ Good morning Leo and Heather!! God bless you both it does my heart good to know y'all helping to keep the history alive it's so sad the fued between the Hatfield and McCoy the good Lord knows I pray there's peace now idk love y'all I appreciate everything you guys do ❤❤❤
I just love family history! I've not been down that way for decades. If I can find someone who can drive and has a desire to go, I'll be coming back that way again. Family from the area has long been gone, but that just means... nothing. It is one of the most beautiful places on earth in Spring. Many thanks, my brother.
I greatly appreciate the fact you take your time to show us these places like Cap's home place and grave that most will never have the opportunity to go and visit . It really puts the old stories into a new prospective.
Great job you two.love and respect.
Love your videos and the hard work you and Heather do to bring them to us. Thanks so much!
I so appreciate all you share on your channel, absolutely wonderful content. Thank you 🙏
You guys due such a great job on these stories of real ppl and show them respect..
Love your videos. Very inspiring and informative. Greetings from Norway
I stumbled on your wonderful videos! Ty so much! I’m now a subscriber! ❤❤
I was just struck with how beautiful and peaceful that cementary is. Cap marker is fabulous Such a pretty piece of land my god. What a nice place to rest. Thank you for the video. .
Thank y’all again for another wonderful video and story. 😇
Wow! This was exciting to see!! Thank You!!
GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for sharing ❤.
I enjoy the videos and the history lessons and knowledge. Your work is very much appreciated...God Bless You and your Family!
Thank you for sharing this one !
Leo glad you brought us Caps story and grave sight especially being on private land. It should help the land owners keep people away from needing to visit what draws interest but still tell an interesting part of history of that area. Chickens in a graveyard are a interesting story in itself so capture that one Leo
Really enjoyed this video a lot great job you guys do
Thank you for sharing..
I cant imagine living in that time ! Its beautiful there for sure! Thank you for this video!
Total respect for yas Heather & Leo ..🤝
Thank yas so much for sharing the history of that fabulous area .
See yas on the next one 🙌🏼😏
Thanks for the tour
Excellent video Leo.
Cap's gravestone is beautiful. Sad that others rest in unmarked graves their names known only to God. It's a shame that Cap's house is gone. A piece of history just gone. Very interesting tour. ❤
I really enjoy your channel you two put so much work into it and it really shows. 😊
Glad you enjoy it!
I watched that home rot away for years, Leo. It made me so sad over the years. 😢 I was raised all my life at Omar. The best years of my life ❤
It was beautiful over there when I was growing up.
I love you got to go see the grave of Cap, Leo. I’ve been there many times when I was little.
Thanks for showing us around , sure is beautiful country !
Another good one my friend
Another interesting and informative video ❤. So sad they let that house go like that 😢
I really love your videos. God bless y'all
Nice video, guys. Thanks for all the errort ya'll put into these videos.
It's a shame that we, people, can not respect other people's property the way it should be.
I was raised, that you respected another person's property more than you would your own. If you hunt or fish on someone's place, with permission, leave it better than you found it.
A few can spoil it for everyone.
Wouldn't it be great to go back 100 years and get all the facts and be able to remove the doubt and conjecture.
Again, guys, thanks for all that ya'll do bringing us these stories.
God bless ya'll for what you do and stay safe out on your travels.
I was raised in Logan county WV in a little place called harts I love and appreciate your videos keep up the good work
I was just in Harts a few days ago
Thanks for sharing this story Leo hope you have a wonderful day ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️ and those flowers are called daffodils
You guys do a great job. I spent alot of years there up 27 holler if you know where that is. Keep up the great work
I sure appreciate you guys. I really enjoy these videos
Glad you like them!
I love back in the old days love your story
I visited many years ago when the house was still standing. There was a trailer next to it, which somebody lived in, but I could not find anyone around. But I did take several pictures of the house. Wish the house still stood.
Beautiful land where Cap's house once stood, unfortunate that the house was not preserved. It looks like the family takes pretty good care of the cemetery, Cap has a cool looking headstone 🪦
Why do you think that Cap and his father had that falling out? Were they too much alike?
This was a very interesting video, thank you very much Leo and Heather. Have a great day. 😊
Love this love history thank you
What beautiful country, thank you
Heather, loved the colored photograph. Who owns the property today?. Every time you mention Devil 's final resting place, I can't help but remember the story of someone who visited the cemetery where he is buried and actually ran out it because it is haunted. Great video Leo and Heather.
Thanks so much for this video tour, I enjoyed it. Such a mezmerizing story, of the Hatfields & McCoys feud. (What is up with all the roosters crowing throughout the valley? Is that normal??)
The guy on the hill had a bunch of them.
I think that plate is probably bronze, sad to see people picking away at it
I recall an episode of Pawn Stars when this guy brought in what was supposedly Cap’s rifle. The provenance just wasn’t there. Dude was majorly disappointed.
Leo you done told everybody watching this where the bridge is and what route ....
HEY, THANK YOU I grew up with a Hatfield
Everytime I visit my families, and ancestors graves I put atleast a flower on it to let them know I was there : they aren't forgotten. I have a backpack I call my cemetery bag so I can clean the grave if needed, cut away brush from it etc
Sucks that people get mad about looking at the history of that area especially when your just looking I understand if someone was being disrespectful but to look and pay your respects makes the whole thing seem kinda not worth it … sad I visited those areas while riding the trails but was nervous the whole time
LOVE YAW LEO THANKS AGAIN BROTHER TAKE EM EAZY
I like seeing and hearing about the original person instead of what movies said they were.
Action Speak's More Than Word's !! When Come's To There Children !!
Thank you for sharing this. I'm a descendant of the Hatfield's but not 100% sure where I'm placed. I was born Mary A. Hatfield of Anthony and Evelyn Hatfield. My dad is from Owensboro KY. My Grandfather was V.T. Hatfield and great grandfather was Payton Hatfield. VT was his name but the Army gave him the name Valentine because they didn't allow names that were initials only. If anyone would like to help place me in the family tree of who I descended from I'd appreciate it. ❤
Hello Leo and Heather
Hey Leo. Headed your way in October. Staying in delbarton. Would love to take a tour with you. Give me a shout if you’re available. Thanks
There was even a mustang on the trail. lol. Very pretty and peaceful.
Fighting roosters at Caps.
Look at all those fighting roosters
Please put names with pictures for us Thanks
Hi, how are you related to the Hatfields
That’s a lot of chickens . 🐐🐐🐐holy crap could they go any higher . Can you imagine hauling coffins up there ? ! I cannot !
❤❤❤
Easter lily's the flowers
He was a product of the time. I think he should have never gone on the run out west. His son died during that time. Maybe karma? Maybe it could have been prevented if he stayed to look after him? But he was there during the cabin massacre a very cowardly act. It was horrible what they did. Either way, interesting story.
I agree 👍 💯 😢
Rooster's doing their job too. lol 🌞
Witness tree, could tell some stories.😊
Daffodils
Did you get into trouble for being on the bridge over the creek to Cap's old homesite?
No. lol We didn't know each other, but we knew of each other's family. We talked about half an hour.
@@thehillbillyfileshave you ever been to where the three McCoy boys are buried? Are there any pictures of their headstones? Love ALL of your videos!
Didn’t Cap pass in Baltimore?
Yes. At John Hopkins Hospital.
I'm sorry but all those roosters!
ERRR A ERRRR ERR, ERRR A ERRRR ERRR, ERRR A ERRRR ERRR BROCK, BROCK, ,BROCK, BROCK!
Does the Hatfield family own that cemetery???
I think it might be Vance, but yes, still relatives.
@thehillbillyfiles OK so Jim Vance's descendants? I know he's also kin to Hatfields I'm just asking if Jim comes in there somewhere? The reason I was asking about ownership of the cemetery is because I didn't understand why you would have to get permission to visit and in some cases like the McCoy's you have to prove that they are a descendant. I'm from Virginia and we have family that's on old mountain cemeteries and you have to cross through land owners to get to them and they don't really say anything about visiting but of course it's not the Hatfield and McCoy's either 😅 I'm sure that can draw a crowd.
Vance owns the Diles cemetery where the McCoy children are buried and yes you have to prove your relationship and can only visit once a year on memorial day with permission 😢
I didn't realize the cemetery where Cap is buried was private also 🤔 but thanks to Leo I know now 😊
Interesting history. PS that is one noisy rooster, lol
human kind cant stop trashing GODs green earth or destroying private property I mean come on chipping away at history like that people would get mad if someone damaged there old home place
