The light bulb shown here was invented by a man whose name was Theron Clark Crawford. Crawford was also the co-inventor of something much more lasting than was his light bulb-The Hatfield and McCoy Feud!
Crawford visited Logan, West Virginia in 1888. He also penetrated the wilds of Island Creek for a visit with Devil Anse Hatfield.
This essay, in its entirety, can be read in my book, “Lies, Damned Lies, and Feud Tales.” https://www.amazon.com/dp/1977716814/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1511238586&sr=1-1&keywords=Lies%2C+Damned+Lies%2C+and+Feud+Tales
