French Eversole Feud
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The French-Eversole Feud was a long-lasting conflict from 1882 until the early 1900s, centered in Hazard, Kentucky. The fierce feud was between the followers of two men who had once been friends: Joseph C. Eversole and Benjamin Fulton French. An estimated 40–50 people lost their lives during the conflict, which saw a two-day pitched battle on the streets of Hazard.
