Never been there yet but lived close in eastern Kentucky and my great grandmother was a Griffith and found out I was related through ancestry, but would love to visit someday. My great grandmother was Meredith Griffith, which be my mas grandma on her maternal side. Plus I'm a Cole do related to Jesse James too

I'm so happy to see this history being kept alive. They helped me with my own Hatfield geneology; very knowledgeable.

Neat spot to stop and check out. Lots of history at that place. Hatfield Cemetery is just down the road and a short hike up the trail. Lots of graves up there so look where you are walking as some headstones are small and almost covered up.
