SUMMARY:“The Hatfields and the McCoys – From Civil War to Family Feud”
DESCRIPTION:At the Brandy Station Volunteer Fire Department Hall\, special guest speakers Reo Hatfield II & Ron McCoy present “The Hatfields and the McCoys – From Civil War to Family Feud”. This is part of the Brandy Station Foundation Lecture Series. The names of speakers Reo Hatfield II and Ron McCoy are instantly recognizable because of the world-famous feud between the Hatfields and the McCoys. However\, in 2003\, Reo and Ron signed the historic Hatfield-McCoy truce\, which was broadcast live on national television. That document would be a formal truce ending all hostilities\, implied\, inferred\, and real between the Hatfields and the McCoys. This talk will include the Hatfield family’s military service during the Civil War and the years long feud between the families. We look forward to hearing the true story behind the family feud. Please come prepared to hear answers to many of your questions. There will be a book signing after the event.\nReo B. Hatfield II is the President and CEO of Prince Michel Vineyard\, Brewery\, and Winery in Leon\, Virginia. He is a former Vice Mayor\, City Councilman and Planning Commissioner member of Waynesboro\, VA\, as well as a retired Chief of Police of Waynesboro. Hatfield also served for two years in Korea with the U.S. Army as a Sergeant and is a private pilot. Ron McCoy is the great-great-great-grandson of Randolph McCoy\, patriarch of the family at the time of the feud. He helped organize the first national reunion of the Hatfields and McCoys in 2000. He is the author of Reunion\, a book which chronicles the reconciliation of the Hatfields and McCoys. The Brandy Station Foundation is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) community organization which operates the 1858 Graffiti House at 19484 Brandy Road in Brandy Station which contains Civil War graffiti and a museum.
