608. Johnson "Johnse" Hatfield
Note: Johnse is one of the most legendary figures in the history of the entire Appalachian region, certainly one of the most famous people in the history of West Virginia. The oldest son of "Devil Anse" Hatfield, Johnse has been called the "Romeo of the Mountains", after Roseanna McCoy ran off with him on election day in 1880. That event was one of the most important in the Hatfield and McCoy feud. Baptism: Baptized by "Uncle Dyke" Garrett Burial: Hatfield Cemetery, Sarah Ann, West Virginia Cause of Death: Heart Attack Religion: Hardshell Baptist
To mountain folk, elections were great social events. Men came to swap goods and stories, to drink and laugh and doze in the sun. The women grabbed the chance to visit, gossip and show off their gingerbread, a token bribe to influence votes of their choice. All in all, elections were not to be missed.
Johnse Hatfield understood that. Though only 18 and a West Virginia resident, he descended on Jerry Hatfield's Kentucky grounds that day dressed in his finest Ð yellow shoes and new mail-order suit. A notorious lady's man whose looks set hearts aflutter, he had romance in mind.
Then he spied Roseanna.
Though her age varies from source to source, as does the spelling of her name, she was at least a year older than Johnse, by then a well-established bootlegger with stacks of ignored violations against him in Kentucky. The attraction was instant and magical.
Soon Roseanna, considered one of Pike County's most beautiful girls, sauntered away into the nearby bushes with Johnse. The two returned hours later, when the sun was beginning to set and Roseanna realized her brother, Tolbert, had left for home without her.
Panic-stricken and with fear in her eyes, she turned to her new lover.
Johnse rose to the occasion, suggesting that she come home with him to the Hatfield cabin.
It seemed the only thing to do.
The Devil Resists
But though Roseanna had, quite unexpectedly joined his household, Devil Anse was far from pleased at the idea of the couple's marriage.
Some say he thought Johnse too young. Others swear he simply refused to have his own blood mixed with that of Randall McCoy. Whatever his reason, he turned deaf ears to Roseanna's pleading and when, months later, her mother sent her sisters to beg for her return, Roseanna went, in part, according to some historians, because of Johnse's wandering eye. But her stay with her own family, punctuated by Ole Ran'l's nagging and reproaches, was short-lived.In desperation, Roseanna fled to her aunt, Betty McCoy, at Stringtown, Ky., a spot closer to her lover and where the two could meet again with no prying brothers' eyes to disturb them.
But Roseanna had underestimated the male McCoys.
One night, as the lovers rekindled the magic of their attraction, her kinsmen surrounded them, took Johnse prisoner and set out for the Pikeville jail. The alleged destination didn't fool Roseanna, who understood Johnse would be killed at the first convenient spot. In an act of sheer devotion and family disloyalty, Roseanna borrowed a neighbor's horse and rode, hatless, coatless and saddleless, to Devil Anse. Quickly gathering sons and neighbors, he led his forces over a shortcut, cut off the McCoys and reclaimed his son without a scratch.
For her bravery, Roseanna received a cruel reward. From that day, Johnse never again risked returning to her side. Hopeless and pregnant, she went back to the father who considered her ride an unforgivable sin. There, amid hostility and shame, she contracted measles and miscarried her child.
To add to her heartbreak, Johnse married Roseanna's 16-year-old cousin, Nancy McCoy, only months later, on May 14, 1881.
In a twist of fate, Johnse Hatfield, convicted separately and later than the others of feud crimes, was pardoned when he saved the life of Lt. Gov. William Pryor Thorne as the latter was attacked by an inmate during the official's prison inspection. Johnse's wife Nancy had long since left him, moved in with and, upon the pair's mutual divorces, eventually married his pursuer, Frank Phillips. She died at 36.

BLUE RIDGE COUNTRY Magazine, March/April 1996, "Hatfield-McCoyFeud, Roseanna: Juliet of the Mountains," by Norma Lugar, pp.28-33: Johnse Hatfield, eldest son of Devil Anse, seduced and impregnated Roseanna McCoy; he did not marry her, as she was a member of the rival clan and there was too much family resistence. Her relatives kidnapped Johnse and took him to the Pikeville jail, but Roseanna ran to Devil Anse and the Hatfields rescued Johnse. Because she had betrayed her family, they turned on her, plus Johnse also deserted her. Her hostile family did take her in, but she got measles and miscarried her child.Months, later, Johnse married Nancy McCoy, Roseanna's own cousin, on 14 May 1881! The next year, Roseanna died and was buried in Dils Cemetery, Pikeville, KY.
Johnse married four times, according to "West Virginia - ABicentennial HIstory" cited by Karen A. Belcher, 39 SaybrookAvenue, Trenton, NJ 08619; internet: KarenBW5@aol.com (1998) onGenServ.com/
