Hatfield Family Cemetery

Omar, WV

Pieces of the Hatfield-McCoy feud are found throughout the region surrounding Matewan, but few pieces of the feud are as tangible as the Hatfield Family Cemetery. Twenty miles north of Matewan, the cemetery is slightly off the beaten path, and visiting the cemetery is likened to a historic hike.

The cemetery contains a life-size marble statue of Anderson “Devil Anse� Hatfield, marking his place of final rest. Although Devil Anse was the patriarch of his family, his children also lived interesting lives.
