Not Embroidery - I was a Hatfield for many years, and my older kids are Hatfields! I'm really excited to see the mini-series Hatfields and McCoys on History starting tonight. Any other Hatfields or McCoys on Cuties? I promise NOT to start a feud :-) Are there famous family feuds in other countries? Hugs, Jan Hatfield Wharton

We've been watching it. After the second part shows they start over with part 1. But than they keep showing part 1 over and over until midnight before they show part 2 again. So if I miss it I have to stay up until 2 just to watch that part!!! Don't get why. Oh well

So nice to meet you. We watched the mini series (ALL 3 nights) and LOVED it!! Very interesting. Would love to know the whole and true story. Is there someplace to find it?
22354Doggone it! I missed the start last night...hopefully it will be on demand..... Will watch the rest.
We saw the live outdoor drama Hatfields and McCoys in West Virginia last year. It was one of the best outdoor dramas we have ever seen... The story is very interesting!
Happy to "meet" a Hatfield! :) Never met one before.. or a McCoy for that matter.

I JUST married into the Hatfields - my ex used to tell people I was a Mccoy! They are showing the first part over and probably will show it and part two over again too. Lots of shooting and blood and guts.
7672My ex husband was from Kentucky and we went once to the are where this people used to live...it will be good to see that story!!!***
60484I've heard lots about them. I think even on the "Hillbillies", granny and the others mention them a few times. Hear the song many times (just not recently).
Saw the advertisement for the mini series - want to watch it - yah!
38558We seem to mostly hear about bikie gangs feuding here of late :( But there was a character named Bob Hatfield in one of our long-running TV drama series. Wonder if they got his name from yours...
23163I've heard of the Hatfields and McCoys too way over here in Australia. Can't wait to see the new mini-series. I too have only heard that they were a coule of feuding families way back in America's history near the end of the Civil War. Love Chris
234506Well my Grandmother was a MCCoy and her mother was Hulda Jane McCoy. Her father was Robert(Bob) MocCoy and they were out of West Virginia and North Carolina. Yes they were some of the feuding bunch. but the stories grandmother told me were not near as bad as the books and movies. She said a lot of it had been made up to make it seem worse than it really was. So don't believe everything you see and hear./Lillian

17718Wow! You're a piece of history! I'm not a Hatfield, but have you seen the hillbilly designs at Sew Weird? Love them! Reminds me of my father's family from Appalachia.
3873I was just watching the commercial on the the program, it really sounds interesting. Must be exciting for you and your family to see this about your heritage.
21593Not sure if there are any relations or not. Been working on our family tree off and on for several years and I keep finding all sorts of names on the branches. So far the only famous name I have found is Daniel Boone, I'll keep looking - maybe we will be related. lol No feud here. :)
3681Looking forward to it as well. That's neat that your family is related.
23222LOL, Jan.....I am recording this mini so I can watch it all the way through, I want to understand what it was all about.....looks good!!
