Early - Hasley Feud

Date: 1865 to 1869
Location: Bell County, Texas, United States
Surnames/tags: Early Hasley

Early - Hasley Feud was mainly between John Early and Samual Hasley.

It was following the Civil War, and took place mostly in Bell County, Texas. Early and his supporters were on the Union side and Samual and his father Drew were on the Confederacy's side.

Each side had additional people who supported their side and pretty much it was just low violence fighting such as stealing from the other side. There were some shootouts however and two of them resulted in death for one participant.

The first of these shootouts was on 30 Jul 1869 which resulted in the death of Outlaw, Jim McRae. The second was when one of the supporters of the Hasley side followed Dr Calvin Clark. He was pursued into Arkansas where he was killed.^[1][2][3]
