| Stories of Kentucky Feuds INDEX |
 |
| These stories of Kentucky Feuds are from the book written by Harold Wilson Coates "Stories of Kentucky Feuds"- published by Holmes-Darst Coal Corporation 1923 I am attempting to make them as sort of an E-Book. Because the author who wrote these stories based them on actual court records I feel they will be of interest to some of you who have families connected to the people in these stories. |
