The Hatfield-McCoy Feud 100th Anniversary By Dave Peyton Herald-Dispatch staff writer. Dutch Hatfield of Newtown, W. Va., never knew his grandfather, Ellison Hatfield. Ellison was murdered a hundred years ago this month a few miles from Dutch's home. That killed and a subsequent triple execution began the most infamous family feud in the history of America. On one side were Dutch's ancestors - the Hatfields. On the other side of the fight were the McCoys who lived in nearby Pike County, Ky. Dutch knows one sure thing about the feud: If someone says he knows the true story of the battle, he doesn't. No one knows the truth, he says.
