seems they have dicovered a genetic problem in the mccoy line that cause tumors and ill tempers.
having grown up right where the feud was, and going to school with both sides i did a lot of reading about it in my youth.
from memory the last death in the feud was a legal haging in pikeville KY when jim vance was hung in 1919.
by the way it was NOT one of the big feuds in eastern KY, far more deaths happened in harlan and breathitt counties in other feuds, but the H vs M got publicity because it was across state borders and governors got involved.
