So sad!! RIP

[@DeborahFlorian-gy6lw]

I remember reading about this in the newspaper when it happened. How brutal.

[@allenpenrod919]

I absolutely love both of your channels! Just trying to figure out why I have to re-subscribe almost every time I watch your videos? KZbin keeps unsubscribing me 😒

[@marlenataylor8758]

A sad ending for him. Thank you for the story and your perseverance in finding the gravesite.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thanks Marlena =)

[@ohmeowzer1]

I watch your channel and the faces of the forgotten with Ron. Both channels are amazing I thank you for not forgetting the common people. I keep mentioning your name in faces of the forgotten .Hopefully, you all can meet up with Ron one day. Great channel .please stay safe .

[@tessaducek5601]

It has gotten to where more of these punks think its their right to steal. No one is safe regardless of where you are or what you're doing. If they need money your life means nothing. Times are changing.

[@FeralSheryl1818]

I have a murder case from 1804 in Hardy County WV if you are interested. It's sad to say I'm a relative way down the line. I have info on court records etc. I love what you do TY!!!!!!!!!!! Found info on a find a grave. Church told me not there.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Sure what's the name

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thanks Nancy! we love you too!

[@cathymcglasson6947]

RIP BEN AND WIFE

[@deniseackermann7116]

My cousin started doing his genealogy for our family. When he had a hard time finding some of the older Graves, he started going out to 'Find a Grave' and puting the GPS and photos of the Grave. He has been doing this for several years and now he built up his Family's Tree. So far he is back to the 1700's and has even gone to Germany to find the really old ancestors and met our their living decendants from that branch of the family.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Awesome

[@cherylverhelst8245]

Interesting video, sad story. Thank you for sharing and your determination to find his grave.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

My pleasure

[@terryrosendahl3173]

You sound like me, I don't give up very easily especially when I'm looking for something of importance.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thanks for watching

[@kimberleyannedemong5621]

What an awful tragic story. A life taken for nothing. Sometimes it feels like the whole world has gone mad. Even though it's a modern story I'm glad you did it.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thank you!

[@FluffyMatt]

That is a crazy and sad story. Thank you for all your videos.

[@annarobinson8183]

that is a awful ending the way he passed very beautiful headstone of him and his family ty for sharing

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thank you!

[@billrothrock6477]

Thank you Heather. I always look forward to you guys videos!

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thanks for watching!

[@robinfreyburger3097]

Thanks for your perseverance, loved the memorial stones. And woman I'm going to say this because you seem to be a responsible, sane human...a small pistol in your pocket, or bear spray would be advisable. I visit many cemeteries in the middle of nowhere and have learned my lesson. Love your videos and hope to get to that part of the Appalachians.

[@jamielieberg7053]

Great video and you are not alone God is with you remember that

[@thehillbillyfiles]

🙏🙏

[@kevinrice7635]

Agreed 👏

[@naomisaleem5396]

Sorry about that last text I meant we hear a lot about the Hatfields can we hear something about The McCoys also

[@bunnysthndr]

Very Unique grave stones.

[@cynthiacarter514]

Wow! This is one of those stories where life is crazier than fiction.

[@Perfectly-Imperfect]

I have been to that cemetery a few times and passed it quite often because I lived close by there when that happened 🤔it was unbelievable

[@susandavis6883]

Wasn’t this the same Ben Hatfield that was involved in the Sago Mine Tragedy?

[@suzybailey-koubti8342]

I always found it interesting as a young girl driving by the cemetery by the road. Mommy took us to the doctor at South Williamson, KY, in the early 1960’s - mid 1970’s to see our pediatrician. We took different routes over time.

[@Amethyst_Dragon_]

Please stay safe..... We love your videos but your safety is more important than a video..

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thank you Kay! very sweet

[@Katseye102]

Have you ever used “Find A Grave”? It helps to find the graves of people.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

That's how I tracked him here, it doesn't tell you where he is in the cemetery though

[@Katseye102]

Sadly I have been discovering that! Hoping it could have helped more!! Love your stories by the way!!

[@Historyfreak-f7o]

@@thehillbillyfiles I noticed sometimes they do and sometimes they don’t, sort of depends on that persons notoriety. Keep up the good work. I always enjoy a good graveyard story.

[@kimberleyannedemong5621]

Is there a cemetery office that could tell you where it was

[@thehillbillyfiles]

It was closed, or I think it was a office, some kind of building. I didn't mind looking, exercise I guess lol

[@steveball1339]

Sad situation, thank you for sharing. This is a good reminder to all, to look out and be on guard and be prepared at all times.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Well said!

[@elayneplanche4031]

Well at least you get your exercise walking around all the cemeteries

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thats a bonus

[@jeanlawson9133]

. Sad ending for an innocent Man...

[@naomisaleem5396]

I really enjoy watching your videos I've heard a lot about that and feels but nothing about The McCoys can we hear something about The McCoys

[@thehillbillyfiles]

we have done a lot on the McCoys, maybe you should go back in the videos you must have not noticed. Either way, we do what we have history on and McCoys arent as photographed and pretty private, I cant do anything about that.

[@naomisaleem5396]

Thank you for your reply I must not have went further back I'm your videos I guess I have to do some catching up LOL thank you once more cheetahs videos coming I do enjoy them

[@naomisaleem5396]

Sorry my phone's acting up again

I swear my mother moves every time I've been a while visiting. A lady was in the same area that I was, calling her sister name :)

I was dating the sister of one of the people who was involved but soon as I found out about it I dropped her like a bad habit.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Good call!

[@lethalarms1979]

@@thehillbillyfiles she asked me do you think my brother a murder I replied he may not have pulled the trigger but he just as guilty her brother gave one of those Ohio boys the gun to shoot that Hatfield man. After that event happened I started to pack a gun myself

[@kerrydennison7947]

A very sad ending to a good man, Miss Heather you should have taken Leo's cousin to help you find a grave. You could have had the video done in less than 15 minutes. And that is kind of dangerous leave in your car running and the door open considering the mustang is in the top 10 cars to be stolen in the United States each year, considering the remoteness of some of the videos you and your husband do you should get you a concealed carry permit, then you would never be alone carrying a Glock, I've always had the philosophy it is much better to have it then never have to use it and then that one in thousand times that you need it and you do not have it, a little side note, ben Hatfield was the president of sago mine when they had the disaster, and from what I understand if the other videos are correct, one of the few survivors out of sago mine of the alleged twelve survivors where they had the big mix-up at was Randall McCoy, and supposedly the guy that was charged with shooting ben Hatfield to death, was the grandson of one of the fatality of the sago mine disaster, isn't it ironic how people can cross in the history of tragic events😢,

[@mariallen3995]

Where did he park his car?

[@thehillbillyfiles]

I don't know

[@cathymcglasson6947]

Your doing a fine job on your own you have strength and I have faith in you being able to take care of yourself.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thank you Cathy =)

[@JennyBerry-b7k]

Heather, I can tell by your voice, this one really effected you.

[@craighoward4446]

You should have brought Leo with you.

[@Crystalblue58]

Making a video is not worth being in danger-take care.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

I was just creeped out, thanks for caring =)

[@michaelbedinger4121]

Very interesting video 📹, thank you, Heather. This is the first time, I have heard of someone being shot in a cemetery. It was probably a once-in-a-million-years situation; Like the sheriff said, Ben was in the wrong place at the wrong time. If economic conditions in this country get any worse, you might see people getting desperate 🤔 and doing stupid, desperate things. If it gets to that point in Kentucky or West Virginia, you may want to consider having Leo go with you, when filming a video. Thank you again Heather, you did a very fine job with this video. Take care.

[@thehillbillyfiles]

Thanks Michael, I think I was just paranoid. But me and Leo cant go together a lot of the times, I just think I was creeped out

[@michaelbedinger4121]

@@thehillbillyfiles Thank you very much for getting back to me. It is very easy to get creeped out. It happens to me on occasion. These days, a person really, really 😕 needs to be aware of his/her surroundings, and err on the side of caution ⚠️. So please 🙏 be careful out there, and thank you for all your efforts.

I don’t know if you know you can ask the office for location. Lol you just need name and date of birth.

Oh no you're there alone. Did you bring a gun? Or you should bring Leo to watch your back. Your fans appreciate your videos but we're not worth dying for.

I do have a gun, I was just paranoid because of the story I think. I was most likely safe, thanks for caring though =)
