The Tolliver-Martin feud in Rowan County, Kentucky resulted in 20 men
dead and about the same number wounded. It featured an Election Day
Killing and a house-burning raid.
It reached its climactic end in June, 1887, when about 60 men fought a
battle in the Main Street of Morehead, the county seat. Four of the
Tolliver faction, including their leader, Craig Tolliver, died in that
battle.

Anse's daughter Betty Hatfield married John Caldwell. John's mother was
Jestine "Jessy" Caldwell. Jestine was the first cousin of Floyd Tolliver,
who was killed in Morehead in 1884. Floyd's brother Craig Tolliver took
over the feuding after the death of his brother, Floyd. Jestine's brother
Hugh Tolliver was the father of Floyd and Craig. So the connection is
both close and direct!
