The Hatton family, a typical old
English family, is recorded in Cheshire (English) records beginning with the
Norman Conquest in 1066 with many marriages and
relationships extending down to the families of old Sullivan County, Pennsylvania. It
seems they came to America before Ellis Island opened, but just kept moving
back and forth between England, Canada and the United States until the late 19th
and early 20th century when they stayed put here in the good old
U.S.A. and started to spread out. This genealogical tale is a
combination of letters, and personal thoughts from family members, with Ernest
Hatton Jr.’s personal reflections. The Hattons, the Potters, the Exleys,
the Orloskys, the Munsons, the Henleys and many, many more families entangle their way
into this exposition contributed by Ernie Hatton Jr. and enhanced
by Carol Brotzman. It is a labor of love on Ernie’s part, and the Sullivan County Genealogical Web Project thanks him for it.
The following is an ancestor chart for Dawn Ann Marie Hatton, which depicts the intermingling of the families.

JOHN1 HATTON1 was born 1774 in Hereford, England. He married MARY HATTON2, daughter of THOMAS HATTON and MARY NELMES. She was born April 02, 1786 in Ruardean Parish, Forest of
Dean, Gloucester, England.
JOHN HATTON
According
to family records, all of which have been correct to date, we are related to
Sir John Hatton who wrote hymns in 1793 period. This is not the "John" mentioned at later
dates.
The family chart covers from Cornelius of Hereford to
John Hatton. Since I know the family personally back to all the children of
Cornelius, I know that to be correct. From that point, I have the family chart
that runs to a very early Sir John Hatton, based on the fact that everything
was correct long before the LDS records were available and that they proved to
be exactly as the family chart states. I can only state that the chart is
correct and that we descend from a Sir John Hatton, as previously noted.

These are old
markers placed against the wall. Because of space requirements, family headstones that have been neglected are placed here. The graves, apparently, have been used again. This is the church in Ruardean Village, Gloucester where hundreds of Hattons are listed in the records. There appears to be three branches of one family that goes back to
John Hatton in the early 1600s. I haven't connected to the main branch yet, but have
been able to go back a few more generations. The family of Cornelius Hatton
appears to have also been a part of the Hatton family of Hereford and Wales. In
fact, they were. Our family may have arrived from elsewhere. A good guess is
Hereford and Shopshire, where the name Cornelius is found. Isaac is a name found
more often in the family, and more closely connected to that of the Sir Christopher
Hatton’s. If you do a search you will find "Isaac" in the locations of
a few family members at Holburn. The more you research, the more apparent it is
that these Hatton families all descend from Ivon (also known as Ivo) and Emma (Emme). .
The
father of Cornelius Hatton appears to be John Hatton, a cousin of Mary Hatton,
from Hereford, a short distance from the Hatton home. I would say that it's
quite possible that we are of the same family [cousins, generations
removed] as John Hatton of 1585 who sailed to America and was one of
the " Ancient Planters." The names Cornelius and
Ernest Arthur Hatton are found in Shopshire where John Hatton was born.

1888, Nanticoke, Luzerne Co., PA.
Generation
No. 2
2. CORNELIUS2 HATTON (JOHN1)2,3,4 was born June 19, 1808 in Ruardean,
Royal Forest of Dean, Gloucester, England, and died October 14, 1888 in
Nanticoke, Luzerne Co., PA. He
married JEMIMA DAVIS December 24, 1842 in Ruardean, England, daughter of JAMES DAVIS and MARY. She was
born July 29, 1813 in East Dean, Gloucester, England, and died December 14,
1891 in Nanticoke, Luzerne Co., PA.
They were married in the Churchyard at Ruardean Parish Church. Cornelius
lived in the Forest of Dean as a free miner. A
free miner was one who owned his own mine and would pass it on to the next
generation. When the reference to "collier" is used, it refers to a
Coal Miner. Other references to miners are usually those who were not coal
miners. Refer to the notes regarding the Forest of Dean. In the census of 1881,
Charles William Hatton was the only child living with Cornelius at Bailey
Brook, Lea Bailey. Cornelius gave his age as 72, Jemima 67, Charles 26. Charles
had not yet married Alice Ann Walby at the time of the census, as he is listed
as unmarried. He was a Collier at that time. The census place was Westbury On
Severn. Cornelius was an exceptional man. He adopted his sister-in-law’s child,
he took in his wife's ill sister, provided for both, and he raised a large
family.

This is a letter sent to me (Ernie Hatton) from a
professional English genealogist, Ron Neep. Comments from Ernie Hatton Jr. are at the end of the letter.
Well !! ..what can I say?
Those Americans who think that a visit to London is
coming to England are missing so much!! The Forest of Dean is backwoods and
beautiful, but this afternoon I have been to a place so out of the way and so
beautiful that it brought a lump to my throat.
The lane from Bailey end lane direct to Bailey brook
is now closed off and is a forest track so I took the road to Dancing Green, a
single track road through the woodlands, and then turned off back towards
Bailey Brook an even narrower road through the forest, past old cottages…onto a
dirt track through the forest.
Bailey Brook is a loose collection of about six
cottages right on the very edge of the woodland. The woodlands are behind, and
rolling green fields in front down to the hamlet of Hope Mansel, with its
church a few hundred yards away. Two of the cottages are now derelict. These
are probably the oldest two, literally one room on the ground floor and one
bedroom above. All except one of these bunches of cottages were built in the
late 1700s or early 1800s, at a time when it was illegal to build houses here.
There was a loophole, it was that if you could erect a cottage in one day and
get a roof on, then it could stand. The old woodsmen knew the law!
It appears that one old house was built in the fields,
probably even in the early 1700s, and then the other on the edge of the wood
added later.
The setting is so idyllic! You are not going to believe
your eyes when you see it! I doubt if this setting has changed since the houses
were first built. This is our England at its best!
The above refers to the fact that Hatton’s
were also woodsmen. Keepers of the forest

I doubt that Cornelius ever dreamed that
his GGG-Grand-daughter, Dawn Ann-Marie Hatton, would one day stand in front of his home. This home is one of five on
the lane. The home is made of stone and, like in Colonial America, was covered
over by white plaster, which is now being removed by most. It was extremely
hard to find. We traveled quite a distance along a small, narrow road until we
came to the most beautiful place of Bailey Brook. Just before leaving England
Cornelius, Jemima, Charles William, and Alice Ann Walby were living here. They
left after the 1881 census and Charles and Alice, my Great-grandparents were
married just prior to leaving. The home of Richard Hatton is in beautiful
condition and very much like that seen at the Forest of Dean Museum. The Crown
did not want anyone living within the Royal Hunting Forest, but declared that
if a man could build a home in ONE day and have smoke rising from the chimney
by nightfall he could stay within the forest. Apparently Cornelius succeeded.
Those in the photo are Ernie, Noreen and Dawn. Cornelius lived at Joys Green
and son Isaac, now married, at Dancing Green, all at Bailey Brook. The home of
Philip Hatton, much larger, is within sight. The area reminds me very much of
the red clay mountains of Pennsylvania and they must have felt very much at
home in Sullivan County. Three lost their lives in the mines. My
great-grandfather Charles Hatton died from a mining car running over his legs,
George, his son age 17, and my grandfather Charles's brother died from a cave
in. My grandfather, Charles
Hatton, known as William or Bill Hatton died from black lung. My father took me into the mines at about 10 years old. You
couldn't stand once in, and had to work within a area no higher than three feet.
It was cold even in the summer. The question my father posed was,” Is this how
you want to live?" my answer was, "no". He replied, "then
you had better study and prepare yourself for a better life." He had
already become quite successful. My father designed the factory in Bernice and
my mother's family built it. My grandfather, though a coal miner, was able to
put his children through college and even lend them money to purchase their
first home. Not a down payment, but the entire amount. I was the only one with
my great grandmother Alice Ann "WALBY" Hatton when she died. I was
always asking questions about where she lived. I was talking to her upstairs as
she was resting, in the home that my grandfather built in Sullivan County, when
she just closed her eyes and passed away. I quietly went downstairs and told my
grandfather. She was a petite woman about 5' 1" or so, thin and always
very neatly dressed. I never thought much about the mines but remember the
terror on my grandmother's face when the sirens went off indicating a accident.
My grandfather was a strict man and had a catty nine tails [not sure of the
spelling] behind the coal stove. It was a small whip with nine straps and
looked well used. That was what deterred a
lot of possible mischief on our part. He never used it and my brother burned it
one day in the coal stove. However, it showed that our particular family was
trained to behave. I guess some would claim child abuse. Well, I think that
certainly isn't the case or I wouldn't have traveled so far to see the home of
Cornelius!! They did keep track of the family tree and if not for that I could
not have so easily found our roots. I have to believe the story that prior to
Cornelius [no generation named] we descend from a Sir John Hatton of London. I
still have that old chart and it has been correct in every manner.
My grandfather, for as long as I can remember, could not walk more than 10 feet
without stopping and grasping for breath. He had a strong heart and actually
"worked" during those times. We never went to a doctor because there
weren't any close by. Home care was given and we survived a pretty hardy bunch.
There were a few rules that could
not be broken; you must never lie, you must attend church, no curse words,
present yourself as a gentleman always. That was it. There were three brothers
Ernest [me], Gordon, and Paul. If I had to give one family trait, I would have to
say that we would rather die then give in to an injustice.
I had a look around the little old church
Saint Michael's at Hope Mansel. It is a Church of England, which was
built around 1100 and is in wonderful condition and still very much in
use. Of course it is stone. It is so tiny, and absolutely beautiful! The small
gravel road is well tended, and the old church still has many old headstones, although unfortunately,
there are no HATTON headstones there. That is to be expected as the family was not there for over one
hundred years and those headstones are usually moved, and often are lost. There is no doubt that
many Hatton’s attended church there, as the parish registers arefull of baptisms and marriages of your
Hatton family. We found that at Hereford. What you are going to see is the very ancient baptismal font
where your ancestors were baptized. I think that it would be a nice thing to attend the service there on
Sunday morning when you are here if you are interested in doing that. There is something very special about
sitting where your ancestors did.
A second later…… Success!I just got a message from my office, they
have checked the census reports, and there were five households in Bailey Brook
Lane!
The first was home to people called Ansley, the second
to a large family called Holmes and the third was the residence of Cornelius
and Jemima HATTON. Next were the Rudges and lastly the Brains. I then went back
and there they were the five houses. Since the Hatton home was the third home
it made it easy to know which one it was. It would have to be the middle home!
Well, it is still in perfect condition. I took a photo of it. I can't wait to
see your faces. It is so beautiful here. The large home at the end of the lane
would no doubt be that of Richard Hatton, your direct line from the late 1700s.
Rod Neep
Comment From Ernie:
We, of course went to the old homestead and it was
absolutely beautiful. It seemed like we traveled for a very long time down a
very narrow road, Bailey Brook Lane. In the days that our family lived there it
must have taken them taken quite a while to get to the cluster of cottages. It
reminded me of the forests of Pennsylvania, but there was an ancient feel about
it. You wouldn't be surprised to see a Knight on horseback charge from out of
that deep forest. Cornelius had picked a beautiful spot and there was a
beautiful spring hidden about fifty feet from the stone home. It was an old
spring as it was made from stones carefully placed with a large stone as a
cover, or roof. The water was crystal clear and there wasn't a soul in sight.
As you looked over the meadow there were sheep grazing, but that is found
through out the Forest of Dean. The forest is so ancient nobody really knows
when it was named. There have been some changes. Several hundred years ago it
was called The Forest of Dene. I have the history and will write about it
later. On Sunday we attended the church at Hope Mansel, by the way the correct
spelling is with one L, but only the families that live there spell it that
way. Hope Mansel would be the name of the parish. The name of the church is St.
Michael. There was a beautiful Manor home across the small lane from the church
called Armada. I couldn't help but think of Sir Christopher Hatton and their
home Armada. I wanted so badly to get someone's attention at the home and ask
why they named their home the Armada. Time wouldn't allow me to stay any longer
as we were on a tight schedule and our guide had other Hatton parish Churches
to show us. One was the church in Ruardean parish were Hatton records go back into
the early 1600s.
You must remember that Church records were not
required to be kept until 1585. It was then that Queen Elizabeth and no doubt
Lord Christopher Hatton demanded that all parishes keep records of all baptisms and marriages. Although England has
excellent records, most did not start prior to 1585. Hatton records are
found though, back to the Conquest because the family was of nobility.
They arrived with William, seven Knights in all. A father and six
sons. That lineage is discussed under the descendant charts.
During our stay we roomed at the oldest Inn in England, the Malt Shovel in Ruardean
where a large group of our ancestors lived. No one visits, because the people
speak an old English dialogue, and it is just beautiful there. Nothing to do but look at the beautiful
forests and meadows. You can
see Wales, just a short distance away and it is just breathtaking. The food was
wonderful and especially cooked for us. They would ask what we wanted to eat
each morning, and then go to the market and buy fresh foods for
the evening meal. The room we dined in was filled with furniture that dated
into easily the early 1600’s with leather high back embossed worn chairs and a
table that could seat 30 to 40 people easily. The table was made of one large
timber. There were several
candelabras and with the wine and steak dinners it was out of this world. We
always had dinner by candlelight.
A large old wooden beam loomed above us supporting the second story.
Note: According to family notes "Cornelius"
was Cornelius Hatton's middle name? Also family notes state that Cornelius was
descended from Sir John Hatton, buried at Westminster Abby, but I could not
find record of that, although I haven’t done much research to date.

Hi Ernest....6-10-2000
Well, Christine [Greening] and I have worked our way
back to Thomas Greening b.21 March 1664...tentatively, but of course, we need
to get documentation. I talked to
my dad in England this morning and he told me that Mary Ann Hatton was the post
mistress in Lassington and would walk miles every day delivering the mail....
you may already have known that. Do you know anyone else who may be researching
the Greening family? It would be helpful if I could be in touch with someone
else who may have common ancestors on the Greening side. Janet
Note: Ernest Hatton 6-25-2003
Mary Ann "Hatton" GREENING and Henry
Greening were living on Newent Road., Lassington, Gloucester, England at the
time of the 1881 census. They are listed as 37 years old with six children;
Blanche age 12 born at Lea Bailey, Hester 11, Henry 8, William 4, Alfred 3, and
James 3 all born at Higham, Gloucester, England with the exception of Blanche.
I find it interesting that Blanche was born at Lea Bailey where the Hatton’s
were born.

Dear Ernest
Good
to hear from you, yes I would be interested in the lady you talk about. My
daughter gave me some info that was given to her by our cousins, and in it was
an 1881 census surname index, county: Gloucestershire found a Henry Greening
aged 37 yrs of age married, census place: Lassington, but says born in
Lassington, I found two children Alfred, 11mths old, born at Higham and Henry
also born at Higham aged 8 yrs old Father being a Henry Greening both children
living at Lassington don't know if this is anything to do with your Henry, but
time will tell. We will just keep working on it. The age is the thing in common your Henry would have been
about 37 at the time. My Greenings
came from Gloucester, the areas being, Thornbury, Stone, Morteon Vallance,
Standish, Saul, Wheatenhurst, Bisley, Stroud, Frocester, Fretherne, Frampton on
the severn, and Stepney, Chepstow, the Greenings, were clock and watch makers
also ministers, here are some of them, Benjamin Greening 1 clock and watch maker,
born 1756 in Fretherne , Gloucester, started business in Frampton in 1780 ,
clock and watch maker in CHEPSTOW in 1801 or earlier moved from St. Mary street to High St. where
he died on April 6th 1854 , a number of his long case clocks with decorated enamel dials are owned in the Chepstow district, Chepstow museum
has one. Benjamin greening (11) 1787 - 1852 son of Benjamin
Greening
(1)Married Ann Edmonds a straw bonnet maker April 1807, he was also a Chepstow watch and
clockmaker at castle parade then moved to high st in1813, chapel lane, now

address is 151 Fortescue Avenue., Seafood, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia post
code 3198 I hope to hear from you best wishes Janine Bramley.
Note from Ernest Hatton: This is, indeed, the same
family of Greenings. Henry married Mary Ann Hatton and their family is still in
England. See the information on my Web Site "Hatton-Exley Family
Tree." I think this is further evidence that the Hattons of Chepstow are
also related to those of Gloucestershire, although I have not listed those.
Mary Ann Hatton, of course, is a direct relationship.

Ernest,
I would like to thank you for replying to my e-mail.
The Frederick Ruddick and Kate Hatton I am referring to is the Kate that is
daughter to Sarah Tranter and Isaac Hatton. Her husband Frederick is my husband’s great-grandfather
through William John. Kate and
Frederick had several children Charles 7-31-1892-5-6-1968, William John
12-14-1908 - 04-28-1982, Bertram 02-14-1902 - 02-1969, Margaret Morgan, Sarah
Niemann and I'm sure there are more but I am not aware of their names. I know that there was a family dispute
about inheritance and the name was changed from Ruddick to Redick. Half stayed with the original name and
the others changed it. I'm not
sure if you would have the information about the Ruddick's but I you do would
you mind very much sharing some sibling names of Frederick married to
Kate. I am new at this and really!
Don’t have the knowledge of where to look for the information nor do I have
much time with a family. How do
you fit into the family history? If there is any information I can share with
you on what I have from my husband's family to Frederick I would be happy to
share it with you. Once again thank you.
I hope that once I have completed much of the family history my children
and theirs will appreciate their history.
iii. AMBROSE " AMMIE TRANTER" HATTON, b. December 24, 1876, Hope Mansell, Hereford,
England.
Ambrose John Tranter and Ambrose "
Ammie " Hatton are the same person. Sarah Tranter, his aunt, and Isaac
Hatton brought him to the United States and raised him as Ambrose"
Ammie" Hatton. He was Ambrose John Tranter and was witness to the marriage
of Charles Hatton and Johannah Truscott. Lillian Hatton was concerned that
Ambrose used the name Hatton because she thought that the marriage may not
be legal since there seemed to be no formal adoption and he was, in fact,
really Ambrose Tranter. They settled in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania. Of course he
was simply a witness who truly believed he was Ambrose Hatton. He may have been
adopted we really don't know. We do know that he was the son of Sarah's
brother. He was very young when they arrived and no doubt for the purpose of
keeping things simple he was listed as Ambrose Hatton, which means that is
probably the name he used through out his life.
Note: Ambrose later changed his last name
to Tranter when he married.

Bailey Brook, Gloucester, England, and died October 26, 1917 from a Mine Accident, Mildred, Sullivan County, Pennsylvania.. He married ALICE ANN [WALBY] WALBY19,20,21 June 06, 1881 in Westbury on Severn,
daughter of GEORGE WALBY and ANN MILES. She was born January 24,
1861 in Ryeford, Gloucester, England, and died December 16, 1945 in Mildred,
Sullivan Co., Pennsylvania

CHARLES WILLIAM (Hatton) HATTON Sr.
My
great-grandfather died at 6:10 P.M on the evening of October 26, 1917 as a result
of a mining accident, which occurred in Sullivan County, PA. Both legs had been
run over by a coal car and were badly fractured. The accident occurred on the
12th of October and he was first placed in Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre, PA.
Apparently there was little doubt that he would live without his legs and it
appears he chose to die instead. The medical report indicates death was from
the result of the accident. I think he had made the choice to die at home. My
great-grandmother would live to 1945. Their son, George Hatton, was killed in
the mines at age 16. He, of course, was my grandfather's brother.
My
great grandfather was born in Bailey Brook within a short distance from the
parish church of St. Michael's in Hereford, England. St. Michael's is an
Episcopal Church and Charles was baptized and raised in that parish. In June of
1999 I visited the home that my great grandfather was born in. The setting was
absolutely beautiful and
photographs were placed in the Forest of Dean museum of our
family visiting the "Forest of Dean." I didn't know my
great grandfather but I remember being in my great grandparent's home in
Mildred, on Sugar Hill, Cherry Twp., Sullivan Co., PA, when I was a boy and my
gg-grandmother Alice Ann Walby Hatton was still living. The home adjoined the
Potter farm and my great grandparents allowed the Potter’s and Exley’s to use a
portion of the land for farming etc. The Potter farm eventually became the
Exley farm, known as the Sunny Side Farm, after my great grandmother Mertie Cecilia
Potter married Henry Exley. This is where my father Ernest Sr. 1st. met my
mother Anna Marie Exley.
I
believe that my great grandparents, Charles and Alice, were Primitive
Methodists for a short time while living in Nanticoke, PA., but joined with the Orlowski family to
build Trinity Lutheran Church and thus became Lutherans. My father's mother was
Louisa Lena Orlowski. She married my grandfather Charles William Hatton
Jr. Charles Sr. and Jr. were
charter members and helped to build the church. They also paid for stained
glass windows, as well, and the windows still remain. The Orlowski family paid
for the remaining stained glass windows. Soon after the church was completed my
grandparents, Charles William Hatton Jr. and Louisa Lena Orlowski (also spelled
Orlousky) were the first couple to be married in the new church. Most of this
branch of the Hatton family are buried at Trinity, now known as Shepherd of the
Hills.
While
we were in England we, I, my wife Noreen and daughter Dawn, attended the church
of my ancestors. Our home, while visiting the Forest of Dean was the Malt
Shovel Pub in Ruardean.Ruardean
is a small village in Gloucester where my great great grandfather Cornelius
Hatten/Hatton was baptized in 1808 in Ruardean parish. The parish churches are
filled with Hatton and Hattens all from the same root.
Note: Birth date in family Bible is May 11, 1853.
(Baptismal date in England shows November 17, 1853). Death Certificate appears
to give birth of May 11, 1852. Family Bible states he was 64 years, 5 months
and 15 days old at the time of his death. Many of the very early dates shown
are baptismal dates. Birth dates, and registration, can be obtained for a fee
of $7.00 as of 1999. Because of the cost of purchasing the actual birth
certificates, if available, most genealogist use the baptismal records which
also show the relationship between the parents and other siblings, thus showing
very clearly that you are in the correct family. When researching a large
number of family members it is prohibitive to obtain all certificates of birth.
I would suggest that only those in your direct line be purchased. Most dates
shown are the baptismal dates. Charles was a collier in the Forest of Dean. He
also worked as a woodsman.
After
arriving in the United States they first appeared to have lived in Nanticoke,
PA, but may have, for a short time, lived elsewhere, most likely Canada. They
eventually moved to Bernice and Mildred and were living in Mildred when my
Grandfather died. The towns are small and seem to connect. The town of Bernice,
Pennsylvania where Charles and Alice settled was named in honor of Mrs.,
Bernice Jackson. It was the wife of the Honorable George D. Jackson who was
responsible for the railroad into Bernice. One of the Potter daughters lived with
the Jackson’s at one time. The town of Mildred was originally called Birch
Creek.
Obituary for Charles Hatten: Here we see again the
spelling with an E; that is because most Hattons pronounce the name as Hatten
instead of Hatton and again it is written as Hatten. It's easy to see that Hatton and Hatten are both the same.

OBITUARY
October 1917, reads: Last week, Charles Hatten of Mildred, who for a number of years has been in the employ of the Connell Coal Co. at Bernice, was fatally injured
in the mines at this place. He was taken to the hospital at Sayre where he died
Friday, October 26. Mr. Hatten was born in England 64 years ago coming to this
country with his wife when a young man they settled at Nanticoke. About 12
years ago he came to Mildred where he has since lived. He is survived by his
wife, four daughters and five sons,. Funeral services were held Tuesday at
Trinity Lutheran church with interment in the adjoining cemetery.
[Notice how the name is spelled with an
E. This happens often and is printed in various documents. The Hatton family of
England and the Hattens’ are the same. It's just a matter of someone
transcribing the name as they hear it.]

Baptized: June 04, 1854, Hope Mansell, Gloucester England22
Burial: 1917, Mildred, PA
Census (2): 1881, Westbury on Severn 26 years old
Religion: Bet. 1854 - 1890, Episcopalian, England
ALICE ANN WALBY
Note:
The date shown here is a birth date. Alice was still in England at the time of
the 1881 census. She was visiting in Gloucester at the time of the census,
listed as 20 years old. Her mother had died and her father was living alone in
Hereford. Registration of marriage shows January 24, 1862. I was the only one at the bedside of my great
grandmother when she died. I hold the certificates of birth and marriage. My
great-grandmother Alice Ann " Walby" Hatton died with just me
present at 2:00 P.M. on the afternoon of December 16, 1945. I remember the wake
that was held in my grandparent’s home. I had been in my
great-grandmother's bedroom talking to her when she just closed her eyes and
passed on just as if she went to sleep. Even though I was only eight years old
I knew she has passed away and I went downstairs and told the rest of the
family. It didn't have a great affect on me because she went so gently.
Her
death certificate states she was a resident of the United States for 62 years
meaning that she arrived about 1882-1883, which agrees with the census records
in England. Her father and mother are stated on her birth registration as
George Walby, farmer, and the former Ann Miles was her mother.
Many of the family members found their mates in Wales.
Other family marriages included the Morgan, Tevitt, Warlow, Truscott, Ingrahm,
Lloyd, and Thomas. Many of these were from Wales. The families appear in the
United States living next to, or near, the Hatton’s, so I think it's safe to
assume these are the same families from Wales.
Ernest 2nd.
Note:
The birth certificate is not clear and the name could be Walbey. George Morgan
was a witness. The marriage Certificate is spelled Wallbe. George Wallbe was
living at, what appears to be James Place, and he is a farm laborer. Witnesses
were William Wallbe and Caroline Meek.
My great grandmother's mother, Ann Miles, I have not
been able to trace the family back any further. However, the Miles family does
appear often in the parish records and are an old family in the church at Hope
Mansell. I think it's possible that some of the Wallby’s left England first and
may be related to those near the Potter family in New York. I noticed Walbys in
that area that might just fit, but time has not allowed me to research further.
My
great grandmother was laid out in the house, which was the custom of the time.
Family members came from all parts of the country and meals were served and
everyone brought up to date on each, and every, family. I couldn't quite
understand it as it wasn't all that somber, once respects were paid. I was much
too young to ask my great grandmother about her family. I don't remember what I
talked to her about, only that I was the only one with her. She talked to me
for a while and then just closed her eyes.
She was a small petite woman with a very English look.
She looked like the old English ladies you see with a thin face and sort of a
pointed and slightly hooked nose. She had lived on Cherry Hill next to our
Exley and Potters. I remember she kept a very clean home and had an old Edison
Record Player, which I now own. My great grandfather Charles and her had bought
it new. It still plays and I have quite a few of the records. I will give it to
my daughter.

The Obituary for Charles James Hatton:
Charles James Hatton, in his 88th
year, of 409 Chestnut Street, Edgeworth, died at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, September
3, 1960, following a long illness. Friends were received at the Gray-Cole
Funeral Home, 328 Beaver Street. Where the Reverend Samuel Odam of St.
Stephen’s Episcopal Church conducted funeral services on Tuesday afternoon.
Interment was in Sewickley Cemetery. Born in Little Dean, Gloucestershire,
England, a son of the late Isaac and Sarah Hatton, he was a direct descendant
of Sir John Hatton, an English statesman who is buried in Westminster Abbey.
His parents brought him to this country in 1882 and settled in Nanticoke, Pa.
He came to the valley in 1900 and was with A.C. Dryman and Sons, a plumbing
firm, until he started his own business, Charles J. Hatton and Sons. He was a
charter member and oldest member of the Edgeworth Volunteer Fire Company, which
was organized in 1903. A member of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church since 1900,
he also served for twenty-five years as secretary of the Edgeworth School
Board. He was a member of the Sewickley Knights of Pythias and was active in
Civil Defense in Edgeworth Borough. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Helen
Graham Hatton; five sons, Jo T. Hatton and Tobias I. Hatton both of Edgeworth;
Milton Hatton of Leetsdale; Charles Hatton of Ontario, California and Arthur
Hatton of Phoenix, Arizona; two daughters, Mrs. Edith Freehan of St. Albans,
N.C. and Mrs. Lily Lindeblom of Olympia, Washington; a sister, Mrs. Lilly
Gilbert of Pt. Pleasant, NEW JERSEY; thirty-one grandchildren and eighteen
great-grandchildren.
Family notes:
Charles James owned a plumbing shop in Edgeworth,
Pennsylvania. His shop was at the end of a driveway that ran between his home
and his son Jo and family. The men who worked for the family were treated like
an extended family.
April 19, 2001from Patty Hefner: Hi Ernie: I am still stumbling my way through
this scanner business: I believe I
need my more computer literate eldest here to guide me through (And make snide
comments on my lack of competency.
He insists on singing that memorable line from the Rolling Stones: "What a drag it is getting olllldddd.")
Anyway, I am trying to send this photo of my grandfather, Charles James Hatton,
am anxious to hear if you see a resemblance to your Grandfather.

This was
taken in our backyard in Edgeworth PA, April 1958. He is sitting with his second wife, Helen Graham Hatton. She
was a nurse in his doctor's office.
She graduated from St. Christopher's in Philadelphia in 1913, I
believe. Used to love telling me
stories about things she did, including delivering babies as a senior nursing
student. However, the docs in the
hospital were *outraged* to see the nurses were learning how to take blood
pressures

According to my oral history from my mother he came
over from England to marry his sweetheart Johanna Truscott. (They were
introduced by brother Francis Truscott E. Hatton )
My grandfather was to be an Anglican Priest at Oxford
University but decided to come to America. He became a Plummer (the first week
of the Susquehanna River). He raised his eight children in Sewickley,
Pennsylvania. He was very civic minded. My mother said he was the Fire Chief,
the President of the School board and was one of the Founder's of St Stephen's
Episcopal Church. I have clippings and pictures of my grandfather and grandmother
despite them being dead before I was born. Interestingly, my mother took my
sisters and I over to England in 1969. I visited Westminster Abbey with my
girlfriends. I asked a deacon to direct me to the Hatton burial area. It is
located in
Islip Chapel, which...(added by E. Hatton) is on the
first floor left side, near center.)

He was born May 1890 in Bernice, Sullivan County, PA.
Moved to Oregon. Unheard of every since. Also known as
Lily. Lill and Thomas lived in
Point Pleasant, New Jersey. Their son Al, I believe was Alfred.
Hi Ernie
I just got off the phone with my Mom. She said that Aunt Lill Hatton Gilbert
b. 1889 is most definitely buried in Greenwood Cemetery along side her husband
Thomas E. Gilbert. Mom said she
couldn’t remember exactly when Lill came to Point Pleasant, NJ but is sure she
is buried there. She said Lill was first married to a Roth. They had one son.
Her first husband died (Roth) Lill married Thomas E. Gilbert. They had a son Bobby and a daughter
Louise. Lill sang in the church
choir at Harvey Memorial Methodist Church in Pt. Pleasant and sang at my Mom
and Dad's wedding in 1937.
Her children went through school in Pt. Pleasant,
NJ. I remember her myself as she
was always at my Grandmother’s. She took care of my Grandmother when she was
very ill back in the early l940's. My Mom is fairly sure Aunt Lill was still
alive in 1945 and is trying to remember the year Aunt Lill died. Mom thinks
Aunt Lill was still living when her husband Tom died in 1957.
Will let you know if she remembers more. She has no recollection of Lill having
been in Oregon. Could you be
thinking of a different Lill in the family?
My Mom said Charles J.'s daughter Lillian used to come
and visit them in Point Pleasant.
I'm going to ask Patty if there is any mention of the
Point Pleasant family in here info.
Thanks so much for giving me Patty's e-mail.
Talk soon, Sandy
Note of Ernest Hatton, researched Roth's: Lil's first
marriage was to a Roth of Bernice. The Roth family was from Hungary. I have
Veirlhem as her husband but it could have been one of the other brothers. The
father noted as Jack Roth entered the U.S. in 1888 and was a farm laborer. His
name was probably not Jack, but that's the name he used...Americanized for something
else.
His sister Mary Spithe entered the U.S. in 1889 with
her son Andrew born August 1889. She was most likely pregnant at the time.
Husband or father doesn't appear in the census of 1900, but may have arrived
later. She lived with her brother Jack Roth in Bernice. She worked as a
servant.
Burial: Greenwood Cemetery, Brielle, New Jersey
Alfred and Pearl Hatton were living in Orange Park,
Florida with Thomas Gilbert.
Note:
Another grave we found was that of Thomas E. Gilbert and Lily Hatton Gilbert.
Thomas E. Gilbert was born in 1886 and died 1957 his wife Lily Hatton Gilbert
was born 1888..This headstone has no death date. My notes say that "Aunt
Lil Gilbert was a Hatton...sister of Uncle Charles Hatton and Aunt Nell of
Nanticoke.
Aunt Lil's first Marriage was to a Roth.... her second
marriage was to Thomas Gilbert.
There was a Thomas Gilbert visiting with Alfred and
Pearl during the census in Florida.
THOMAS E. GILBERT:
Burial: 1957, Greenwood Cemetery, Brielle, New Jersey
Children of LIL HATTON and THOMAS GILBERT are:
i. LOUISE5 GILBERT.
ii. AL GILBERT.
iii. ROBERT GILBERT.
14. BERTRAM CORNELIUS4 HATTON (ISAAC3, CORNELIUS2, JOHN1) was born April 18, 1891 in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania.,
and died 1946 in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania.. He married ELLEN WARLOW23, daughter of WILLIAM WARLOW and MARY VIVIAN. She was born 1893 in Pennsylvania, and
died 1965 in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania..
Living next to Bertram Hatton was John T. Davis age 30
born PA and wife May age 30, also son Will ? age 3, and Mary age 1 1/2.
Boarding with the Davis family was John Trevitt age 55 born 1864 on the census
and Russell Trevitt age 16. These families are most definitely connected to the
Hatton family and John Davis must somehow be related to Jemima
"Davis" Hatton, the wife of Cornelius Hatton, father of Isaac, father
of Bertram Hatton. All are working in the mines except for John Trevitt who is
working as a salesman in a grocery store. BERTRAM CORNELIUS HATTON: Burial: Nanticoke Cemetery, Nanticoke, PA
ELLEN WARLOW: Burial: Nanticoke Cemetery. Nanticoke, PA
Children of BERTRAM HATTON and ELLEN WARLOW are:
i. VIVIAN5 HATTON24, b. March 28, 1916, Nanticoke, Luzerne Co.,
Pennsylvania.; d. September 10, 1996, Nanticoke, Luzerne Co., Pennsylvania..
Vivian died a
spinster. She did furnish the family history as told to her by her father Isaac
Hatton. This information was sent to my father, Ernest Sr., aks 1st. It is
absolutely accurate. Vivian did not know the period of Sir John, only that we
were descended from him. She did state that he wrote hymns in the 1700s. If not
him than an earler Sir John.

Orange Park, FL..
In regards to CLARA HATTON
Family Bible states she was 54 years, 4 months and 9
days at the time of her death. Clara raised her three children alone. Clara was
married in Dushore, Sullivan

The Sullivan Review, May 19, 1937
Obituary: Note there are mistakes in
this obituary; Mrs. Clara Jane [middle name was Alice after her mother] died
Wednesday evening, May 12, 1937, at the home of her son, John, at Hendy Creek.
She leaves two sons, John and George, of Elmira; a daughter, Miss Clara Alice
Henley, of Endicott, three brothers, James and Henry Hatton of Detroit and
William Hatton of Bernice, two sisters, Mrs. Alice Gardner, Lopez, and Miss
Blanche Hatton, Mildred, six grandchildren. Also survived by mother, Mrs. C.
Alice Hatton of Mildred. [This is not correct; her mother was Alice Ann
Hatton].
The body was taken to the Holly funeral
home, where Rev. Frederick Hemstridge held the funeral Saturday at 11 A.M.
Burial was at Dushore.
The Sullivan Review
November 5, 1903
Mr. John Henley and Miss Clara Hatton,
both of Mildred, were united in marriage Wednesday morning, November 4, in the
United Evangelical church at Dushore, By Rev. W.J. Campbell.
In regards to JOHN SIMS HENLEY
John Henley," (aks John S. Henley) left the
family and was never heard from again," (based on family history). Their
mother Clara Alice Hatton raised the children, though they bore the Henley
name.
Note: Bernice is in Sullivan County, Pennsylvania.
John Henley disappeared and was never heard of again. Records I have found
indicate that he or his brother did show up in Florida at the home of Alfred
Hatton, then retired. In that census he is listed as a guest. Alfred and wife
Pearl had retired from Michigan. Alfred was born in Bernice which connected to
Mildred. Bernice is now a part of Mildred Pennsylvania. (Alfred was Clara
Hatton's brother and my granduncle).
Note: Oh, what the computer age does uncover!
A letter written to me by Sarah Henley Haas 20,
February 2001 from 4465 Main Street, Slatington, Lehigh Valley, PA 18080.I
phoned Sara on March 26th., 2001 after the 1900 census for Bernice was
published.
She writes; Dear Sir, you do not know me but I am the
4th daughter born to John Jim Henley of Mildred, Sullivan County, PA. John was
born in May of 1880. (Here we go again) "There is a mystery concerning his
death which has never been solved, as to when, where or how?" (Seems like
John left this family also) "There is no record of death." (John, of
course appeared in Orlando, Florida at the home of the brother of the wife he
never divorced, but left with three children, that was my granduncle and
Clara's brother, Alfred Hatton. Fortunately there was a census being conducted
and he was listed as living with them. Apparently he was suffering from TB.)
The letter continues; John married Sarah Jane Shingler of Leighton, PA. (All
indications are that he never divorced Clara, but we do not know for sure)
John was a coal miner by trade. When work was scarce
he followed the coal miners into Leighton, PA. They had 10 children in all,
some died at a very young age during the depression. I am one of the younger
children. My mother died in 1931. I do not recall her or my father at all as I
was very young at the time.
I have searched for at least 50 years to locate the
family. After our mother's death a few women from Monroe Co., Court House came
and took the children away from my father, saying that he could not care for
us. The baby was 6 months old at the time. (This means born in 1930-31). These
women were from the children's Aid Society of Monroe County, PA. We were the first
children ever taken in.
They separated us one from another and placed us in
foster homes and we had to earn our keep, and taught to work.
After diligently searching for the brothers and
sisters. I located all but the baby when finally found her-she had passed away.
I learned she had married and raised a family, but it was too late for her, she
died in her 40's and is buried in Florida.
After learning about her death I pondered about for
some time.
Taking the bull by the horns decided that before any
more of us pass away I should have a family reunion, which was in July 1996.
We are all in our 70's and 80's now. Some found
excuses not to come, but they came anyway out of curiosity, seven different
states were represented. I told them this was our first and last reunion I
would have. She goes on to state that in her father's family there were 8 boys
and 8 girls. Then she ends with, my grandfather was Edwin Henley, his wife
Marie Tubbs. They are buried at Bears Cemetery at Dushore, PA. (Census records
of 1900 indicate 10 children.)
Sincerely, Sarah Henley Hass
Note: Sarah and I talked at length one night in
February as stated above. She is a delightful and wonderful woman who wondered
what had happened to her father. It appears that he left these children as he
did the others and did show up in Florida where he is most likely buried. At
least one of his children settled in the Orlando area. She had married a
Burgess. She died in the area. It's possible that other children also settled
in the area, perhaps being told by Alfred Hatton that their father (whom they
had no contact) was living. A noble gesture on Alfred’s part, knowing what his
feelings where.
Wonderful Sarah has more family than she thought. She
has another two brothers and a sister from the marriage of Clara Hatton and
John Henley. They were older of course, so the challenge is to find their
children and grandchildren.
Sarah, will write to me and fill in the gaps for
future generations, the two half brothers and one half sister of the marriage
of Clara Hatton and John Henley should do whatever they can do to put this
family in order and to know present generations.
The mystery of John S. Henley is over.... the computer
age has solved the mystery. Based on his second marriage license. (There is no
indication that he ever was divorced from the first. In fact, the same thing
happened he disappeared. John later, according to Florida records appeared as a
boarder of Clara's brother Alfred Hatton in Florida where he apparently died of
T.B.) His ss#, Marriage license to Sarah J. Shindler match John Henley of
Sullivan County. Also conversations and letters from Sarah Henley Haas conclude
that he was indeed the same John who disappeared from both families.
NOTE: I will print the letters sent from Sarah less any
information that she, or I, feel is best not to disclose. At this time I am
free to pass this information along but choose not to do so at this time. I am
so very proud of Sarah for her effort in trying to put together her family
genealogy. When I talked to her she was wonderful and very open. Future
generations should regard her highly for what she has done.
April 4, 2001 letter from Sarah in her own words;
" John Henley, from Mildred, and wife Sarah moved from Lehighton to
Kunkletown, bought a home in 1921, the home was sold for taxes in 1936. John
signed the papers at that time. SS# 175-10-9481(Sarah was 16 when John married
her) I (Sarah Henley Haas) had found the home years ago. At that time it was
well taken care of, but today it is another story, as it has gone to pot.
Snakes and wild life live there now.
I decided that if the Henley children ever got
together that it would be up to me, as none of the rest would do it. I am the
one that will jump in with both feet instead of sitting back and talk about it,
so I did it. Everyone is glad I did it, although I had to do a lot of talking.
They were afraid that it would amount to nothing.
The Henley children were affected in one way or
another as to what happened to us in our young life, not knowing what was going
to happen to us. We were scared to death, not having parents to help us.
Because of that we were known as the scum of the earth. Today (she is in her
70s) people still say I was picked up out of the gutter. They are not as old as
I am and had nothing to do with it. I tell them to go fly a kite.
I have a lot of tid bits to tell, but this will keep
you busy for a while. I could not UNDERSTAND why my father was BANNED from ever
going home (Bernice, Mildred, Dushore). I made a trip to Williamsport, Dushore,
Bernice, Mildred and Towanda etc. searching for information. I was told that my
mother was CLARA (Clara Hatton) from Towanda (Clara had moved her children and
finally settled just outside of Elmira. They may also have been talking about
Clara Henley, the half sister she didn't know she had. The daughter of Clara
Hatton and John Henley). I told them no my mother came from Leighton and was
SARAH. I was also told that they knew of an uncle John, but when he was spoken
of it was in hush tones, and no one knew where he was or what happened to him,
his name was not mentioned in the house. (Here Sarah is being told about "
her father " because the towns people know of no other John Henley and it
is obvious that they don't want to discuss the matter further). I wondered what
he ever done to be treated as a black sheep. There was no police records
concerning him, never killed anyone etc. No one would give me the
answers." (Here is where I fault the family, which to this day must know
the truth yet they will now give these children or the other children the
satisfaction of knowing the truth from their lips.( The remaining family who
know) They are so proud as to let their own go to their deaths never to give
them their name.
[Note of Ernest Hatton...
(I knew what's she talking about). Well Sarah, although we
are only tied together through two marriages, and no record of the first of a
divorce, I applaud you and welcome you into our family circle. Though there is
no bloodline between us. What a terrible thing to search for a family that will
not accept you. You are far too good for them Sarah.]

said that I should leave it alone, that he did not care and that it was best
not to know. They blame computers today for all the mistakes but I blame this
old typewriter. It is an old one and it is not me it is this old typewriter
that I have used hard thru these many years. There is more that I must tell you
and warn you about. (From here I am giving the gist of much more, preserving
her privacy)* I was told that there was money in the Henley family that was
never claimed by others. It is quite a story and I have no interest in it at
all. As far as I know we were as poor as Church mice. To be descended from
English Kings or Queens is not possible in my mind.* end of the summation.
Sarah then included the documentation showing her descendent as described.

CHARLES WILLIAM HATTON Jr.
My grandfather was known as Bill Hatton. He used only
the name " William" as not to be confused with his father who used
Charles. So as not to be confused he is listed in census records and other
records as William C. Hatton. I
knew him well. My father was born in the home I visited every summer in
Bernice, Sullivan County, PA. My brother Gordon and I stayed with my
grandparents every summer from the time school was out until we went back in
the fall. During World War II my father was drafted into the army and then
transferred into the Air Force. He had an I.Q. of 148 and it was decided that
he be placed in the Air Force. During his time in the service our family, which
included my mother and two brothers, lived with my grandparents. Gordon and I
attended Cherry Twp. School. My brother Paul now owns the old homestead as of
August 2001. I enjoyed my time in Bernice. It was quite different then living
in Philadelphia. Most of our extra time was spent picking Huckle Berries,
Raspberries, Black Berries etc. Theyall grew wild in the forest in back of my
grandparents home. There were also wild apple trees. [In the 1920 census of
Cherry Twp., Sullivan Co., PA he is listed as William Charles Hatton.]
My great grandfather Charles Sr. had brought seeds
from the Beech Nut trees of the Forest of Dean in England and we had one large
Beech Nut tree in the yard with a wooden swing. Beside the tree there was a
horseshoe pit and a small baseball field for the family. My grandmother kept
large flower gardens and also a large vegetable garden, which we would tend.
There wasn't any running water and the only well was a community well about 100
yards from the house. I hated washday, as I had to make trip after trip to the
well to fetch water for washing. At that time a large metal tub was used. I
would carry the water back from the well
with a yoke my grandfather carved. I still have that original yoke above our
fireplace, completely intact. I never dreamed that God would bless me with so
much as I look around my beautiful home and watch my wonderful family.
My brother Gordon and I spent most of our time building places to sleep in
the woods. We also spent a great deal of time shooting. In fact, we target shot
so much that we really could hit anything that was visible. We first started with
shooting at pennies and then to the top of a match. We did the entire things
kids do living in the mountains. The school was small and we were required to
bring a pad, pencil, bowl and spoon. Fresh, wonderful lunches were prepared at
school and we all had our bowl and spoon.
I always went to Schaad's Dam during recess or lunch
and seldom returned to school. I got caught up in swimming or looking for
frogs, all kinds of interesting things. When I returned to school it was over.
One day my teacher, Mrs. Doyle, told me to go out and cut a switch. The teacher
would often switch you in front of the class for not behaving. I cut a very
small switch and Mrs. Doyle made me go out and cut a bigger one. The switching
wasn't too bad, as I don't remember that as much as having to cut two switches.
When my brother and I first attended school we had to
fight several other boys in order to be accepted, but that wasn't a problem for
us and soon we were well respected and accepted. I had a girl friend in third
grade by the name of Ruth Sheer. I think that's how her name was spelled. My
cousin Bob Exley's wife to be (many years later) Joan Vogel was a classmate.
Back to my grandfather for whom this page is supposed to be about; he had
miner’s asthma and couldn't walk very far without stopping for a breath. When I
was young he was still working in
the mines. He started at age 11. I remember waiting for him to come home. We
would open his lunch bucket and my brother Gordon and I
would finish what was left sitting on the lawn with my
grandfather. My grandmother added a little more to make it a respectable meal.
After, we would talk to my grandfather and look for four leaf clovers.
One of the things I remember most were
sirens when there was a mine accident and my grandmother would just wait and
worry until she knew my grandfather was safe. My grandfather was a very
intelligent man and somehow managed to save enough money to pay for college for his children and even lend my father
the entire amount of money to buy his first house. My grandparents managed to
manage their affairs very well without the need from any outside sources.
I remember the " Catty-nine-tails" (not sure
of the spelling) but it had a wooden handle and nine straps that were attached.
It hung just behind the coal stove in full view and that is what we dreaded!
The Catty-nine-tails was never used that I can remember, but regardless it was
terrible thought. One day my brother Gordon took it down and threw it in the
coal stove and that was the end of the Catty-nine-tails. I remember it was old.
My grandfather was probably keeping it as a collectible item from England or
something. Well, nonetheless, it was destroyed by fire. He didn't say much
about it maybe he realized that it was really creating a bit of fear in us thinking
that he may use it. We were whipped by the belt when we didn't do as we should
and it was usually a bad whipping. We had to drop our draws and expose
ourselves. It didn't happen very often. It was always clear to us that our
grandfather loved us very much and that this is the way he was raised. The good
far out weighed those few times. When he was young, working away in a city
elsewhere, when there wasn't any work nearby, we would wait by the window
looking out over the meadows towards the road just waiting the time we would
see his car would approach the house. It was always in the evening so we were
looking for headlights. When he finally arrived home for the weekend he would
always have something for us, usually a candy bar. He loved the holidays and so
did we. At that time all the families would come home to the grandparent's home
with their children and so we had a house full. My grandfather at Christmas
would go outside and run across the front porch with bells ringing pretending
he was Santa. (I did the same for my daughter) We would cut our own Christmas
tree from the woods in back of the house. There were two stoves in the house for
heating. The one in the kitchen was also used for cooking, baking and heating
and the other for washing. The pot bellied stove was in the parlor and was used
for heating only. At Christmas after midnight church service, we would all
gather in the parlor, there were about 15 to 20 of us through the years who
were together for the holidays. My aunt Edna would play Christmas carols on the
piano and we would all sing, then open presents, except the ones Santa would
leave later in the evening. It was a wonderful life.
In Later years my grandfather couldn't do much work
because of his Black Lung disease so he began working as a night watchman in
the factory my family built. My brother and I would stay with him and even
punch the clock, making the rounds at night checking the factory. It was safe,
as no body in that small town would bother the place in that time era.
My grandfather was like a father to me. I had lived
with him for much of the time. When he died it was very hard on me and that was
the beginning of a change in our lives. The families weren't together as often,
and today, even though the very cousins live within 15 miles of my home we
never see each other.
He was the glue that kept us together.
It was from this experience that I tried to raise our
daughter. I have been fortunate to have a wife with the same values. Our
Christmases are wonderful and the experiences learned from generations passed
are well instilled in our daughter who looks forward to those wonderful family
gatherings. It's a different family now and maybe I'm the glue, and one day
maybe my daughter will be the glue.
Whatever happens the true value of life and family are
deeply rooted. The love of God and family is the root. With God's help may we
always continue with the same family values, generation after generation.
Note by Ernest Hatton Jr. June 2000: Charles William Hatton and Louise Lena
Orlowski were the first couple to be married in Trinity Lutheran Church, since
renamed The Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church in Mildred Pennsylvania. They
were married by Reverend Arthur L. Smith. The families purchased three stained
glass windows that still remained in the church as of February 28, 1999.
Charles William and father both purchased windows. Windows were also purchased
by the bride’s parents Heinrich and Louise Orlowski. I spent a great deal of
time with my grandparents and even lived with them during World War two while
my father served in the Air Force. They were extremely close to me. They are
buried in the cemetery of the church where they were married.

LOUISA LENA ORLOWSKI HATTON
My grandmother was born in LaPorte,
Sullivan County, PA. Her parents were Heinrich Orlowski (also spelled Orlousky) and Louisa
"Melcher " Orlowski. They were from Prussia and my great grandfather
Heinrich (Henry) was in the Prussian Army. My grandmother's favorite thing was
her flower garden, which I mentioned on previous pages. Some things I have repeated when
writing about my grandfather.
My brother Gordon and I lived with my grand parents
during World War two and each summer we stayed until school started. I have the
yoke that my grand father made for caring water above my fireplace. I used to
hate washday because we had to carry water from the well, which was about a
hundred yards from the house. It was hard for little guys. My grandmother and
mother would can all kinds of things and my grand father would make wine. We
had sour krout in large crocks in the dirt basement under the house. It was
just a hole. They used to can carrot juice..ugh! We had no running water and an
outhouse with a Sears catalog. You could do two things with the catalog...read
it and used it to wipe your.... There was a large beechnut tree in the yards
that I now know the seeds came from the "Forest of Dean" in
Gloucester England. We had two things to do there. Shoot a BB gun and get in
trouble. My brother and I became wonderful shots. If we could see it, we could
shoot it. One day we decided it was time to fly. Why not, birds do it? So we
fashioned some wings out of cardboard and other odds and ends. I climbed up the
beechnut tree to about twenty feet, started flapping my arms and jumped out of
the tree. The only thing I remember is the ground seemed awfully close. Well, I
thought, I needed a runway. So, I got up on the out house roof, ran across it
and the coalhouse, flapped my wings and let it rip...crashed right into the
wire chicken yards fence. That was the end of my aviation career. My brother,
who I thought was dumber than me, just watched. I might have been wrong about
him. He did have a puzzled look on his face about my flying and there was a
certain glee when I crashed! The only other really interesting event was the
time we set the woods on fire. We were coming home from school lighting matches
and throwing them up in the air...all of the sudden we were surrounded by
fames. We got out of there and it wasn't but a short time when the whole town
was fighting the fire. School was okay, because I wasn't there much. I would go
to the creek at lunchtime and get interested in frogs, snakes and other stuff,
next thing you know it was time to go home. The teachers used to make us get
our own switch out of the woods when we didn't behave. I had to do it just one
time. I went out got a really small switch, was sent out again. Got a really
small switch etc, finally she got a paddle and that was that. At least I didn't
furnish the weapon. That's the way I looked at it. Getting ready for school was
real simple, not like today. This is what you got for school. One pad with
lines, one pencil, a bowl for all your food and a spoon...that's it! When lunch
was ready it all went into the bowl, you ate it with the spoon and bingo that
was lunch country style.
My grandmother had a wonderful laugh. She had always
wanted running water in the house. It really wasn't practical because the water
had too much sulphur. We used to catch rainwater, which we used for washing
etc. My grandfather got an old sink and placed it in the house with a drain
going to the outside. Of course you had to go out and get the water, then fill
the basin. It wasn't practical and my grandmother had a good laugh and never
asked for an indoor water supply again.
The Saturday wash is a reality for those who are not
familiar with that time in the country. Each Saturday night a big tub was
filled with hot water in the kitchen and my brothers and I took turns getting
our baths...no privacy.
In those days, and in that place, everyone lived in
the kitchen. There wasn't any heat elsewhere. When we went to bed at night in
the winter we would take a heated brick from the oven and placed it in a sack
that we placed in our beds. It was almost like sleeping outside. As soon as you
got up in the morning you would make a run for the kitchen. The stove was
usually started about 6:00 in the morning or sooner. My grandfather sat in his
old mission rocking chair by the old stove. We used mostly coal but also wood
to get it started. The coal after it was used was placed outside and we, the
kids, would shift through it and get any coal that was not burned. There was
little waste.
Our food was wonderful. There was always a good meal
with fresh vegetables in the summer and our own canned in the winter. The mail
was delivered to a small post office in town. There weren’t very many people.
My grandfather Exley had designed a Movie Theater, so we had that until it
burned down and was never replaced.
During my years the town was much smaller than when
the mines were in full operation. At the times of full work there were hotels
and lots of people in town. Today the entire population of the county is only
6200 people. The winters were really hard and it was not a pleasure to go out
to use the outhouse during that time. There was a pot under each bed in case
you needed it during the night, but almost always we would just face the
weather and go outside to the out house. It was bitter cold most of the winter.
The old Sears catalog was the tissue of those times.
The line up was the outhouse, the coal shed, and then
the chicken coup. We had a garden as I mentioned before and a rhubarb patch.
My family, which included both my father and mother's
families lived in the same towns and attended the same church. My mother's
family was Exley’s and Potter’s. The Potters arrived in 1635. They were
Puritans. So, there is a lot of family history. They are also buried in the
area as well as in Otsego, N.Y. and New Haven CT, which they founded with other
Puritan families. They were mostly farmers to begin with but did become well
known. (More on that elsewhere)
My grandmother died in Binghamton, N.Y. My brother Paul
bought the old homestead and has it till this day august 2001. He uses it for
hunting, fishing and visiting the folks that we are related to in the area.
The thing I remember most about my grandmother was the
respect shown to her by everyone. She was so well liked. She tried to learn the
language of the various people and would speak to them in their language. She
spoke German very well as it was spoken in the house while she was growing up.
Some of her siblings, as noted, were born in Prussia. My grandmother taught me
German but I never used it much so there is little I remember. It was she that
introduced the name Ernest into our English family. She insisted there be a
German first name and so my grandfather settled with one and that was Ernest.
However, the middle name was Arthur. The first Ernest, of course, was my
father. There's a lot of history in our names and I'll try to explain the names as I write. Knowing our family
history so far back gives us the opportunity to explain our heritage. My
grandfather didn't tell her about Ernest Arthur Hatton’s of England.
Like so many families it is mixed, but I do think that the Religious root is stronger
than many others. Not so pious, but still strong and tolerant. It's the deeds
that count. My grandmother always
found a way to get to church.
We spent so much time with my grandparents, picking
Berries and selling them by the side of the road. My grandmother always had
fresh pies. The pies were Huckle Berry, Wild Apple, blackberry, Raspberry,
rhubarb and lemon, and oh so good! My grandfather would make the wine from all
of those plus dandelions, which we also ate as a salad.

Notes for REGINALD THOMAS GREENING:
Dear Mr. Hatton.... Imagine my surprise and utter
delight. In accidentally stumbling across part of my family tree as part of
your family tree I find my great grandparents were Henry Greening and Mary Ann
Hatton. I thought you should know
that it was Albert Greening (not Alfred as stated) who married Mary Farmer.
Albert Greening was my grandfather.
My father is Reginald
Greening (married Lillian Cox) and is alive and well
and living in England...he is 87 years old. I am Janet (Greening) Peters.... came to the USA in
l960. There are several other
errors in the Greening side of the family tree, which I would be happy to
correct if you would like. Again, let me say how astonishing it was to simply
type in the name Henry Greening and come up with all this information. Thanks to you!
During World War II, my mother (Lillian Cox) and I
lived with my grandparents Albert and Mary (Farmer) Greening because my father
(Reginald) was serving in the Merchant Navy. I vividly remember a very large
framed photograph hanging in their parlour....a photograph of Henry Greening
and Mary Ann (Hatton) Greening. I
understand from my father, that his grandfather Henry Greening
was employed as the estate manager for Higham Court,
home of Sir Hubert Parry. I hope I haven't rambled on too much! I am now interested in tracing the
Greening family tree back beyond Henry Greening, and if you have any tips on
how I can start doing that, I
would appreciate it very much. I am very new at this!! Thank you once again for the
opportunity to learn so much about the Hatton side of the Greening family. Hoping to hear from you.. Janet
Ernie....It is with a great deal of sadness that I
must tell you that my father passed away today, October 12 at Queen Mary's
Hospital, Sicup, Kent. He was 88
years old and his health has deteriorated for the past year or so. I will be going to England as soon as
funeral arrangements have been made.
I hope all is well with you, Noreen and Dawn....Janet
Note by Ernest Hatton: The Greenings are
related to the famous English Composer.

Note from Patty
Hatton Hefner; Speaking about the children of Arthur and his first wife: These
were the cousins I grew up with. Judy was enough older than me that I
practically worshipped the ground she walked on. Edie Jo died of complications
of heart disease in the late 60's. Maybe 1967. If I find the note that was
written about her I will try to send it to you. She was loved throughout our
neighborhood, lived across from the playground and was always bandaging up
" booboos" and calling moms, taught me to can tomatoes, volunteered
for anything. When she was in the hospital, she would visit those who had no
family. When she died, I went to the funeral home then couldn't go in, I was so
angry that she had died. I don't know when uncle Art left, I don't ever
remember him being around.

A Note from Jeanne
to Ernie: My Mother's maiden name was Chiloquin....I was born 5 days after my
Mother's Mother died. I do not
know their first names, but she had a brother named Peter Choloduik. Her parents and her brother escaped
from Ukraine and came to America.
My Mother was born in America; her brother was 20 yrs older than
her. I will try to find out
her Parents names. I am actually excited; I met almost all of my Father's
family when they would come to Phoenix to visit. I never met his children, which is sad, since they are my
family, but they do not want to know us.
It is sad, but hopefully, with your help, I will learn more about my
family. Thank you again, and
I will send you all the information I can find.

Monday morning November 25th, 2002. Last night my
brother Paul called from Pennsylvania to inform me that our father was in
serious condition in the Moses Taylor Hospital in Scranton, PA. Dad's doctor
had called him that day to tell him he didn't think Dad would survive this
time. I called my stepmother Eva last night to see if there was anything I
could do for her. She said that Dad was taken to the hospital on the
twenty-third and is very ill. She said she doesn't fully understand what the
problem is and, apparently, the condition developed while he was in the nursing
home. She informed me, as did my brother Paul, that Paul and family would be
arriving from Philadelphia today the 25th.of November 2002, and they would keep
me informed. Dad reached his 87th. Birthday on October 2nd. of this year 2002.
Dad passed away at 2:45 P.M. November 25th. 2002 at
Moses Taylor Hospital, Scranton, PA.
He will be buried next to my mother at Shepherd of the
Hills Lutheran Church in Mildred, Sullivan County, PA. His marker was made with
both names. He thought that he would not live to 2000 so he had 19...placed on
the marker with room to add just the last two years. However, he lived much
longer than he expected. I am writing this just a few hours after I heard from
Paul. It is 5:00 P.M. It's strange because around 3:00 o'clock I became ill and
couldn't shake it.
God Bless him he did well for a coal miner's son.
Struggled through college, raised three boys and became a successful engineer.
It wasn't easy. During that time he was drafted into WW II and our family lost
everything we had managed to achieve, our car, our home, our furniture. My
mother could not afford to remain in the home my father had provided. After the
war he had to start all over again. I remember the day my father came home from
the war. I could see his figure about a block away. He must have hitch hiked
many miles, as there was no transportation to our area. Well, another WWII
veteran is gone and I am the next generation that will go.
(Please understand these are my
notes and feelings as I write as
his son, Ernie)
God Bless you Dad, all my love, your son, Ernie [ Jr.]

MY FATHER by ERNEST A. HATTON JR. aka 2nd.
The Card at the viewing reads; I will lift up mine
eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord,
which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that
keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither
slumber nor sleep. The Lord is they keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon the
right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The
Lord shall preserve thee from all evil; He shall preserve thy soul. The Lord
shall preserve thy going out and they coming in from this time forth, even
forever more.
Ernest aks 1st., Civil Engineer City of Philadelphia
37 years 4 months. Attended and received degrees from Temple University and
Dexel Institute. Served in United States Air Force World War Two. He
volunteered for Citizens Military Training Corps for three years. After the war
he returned to his position with the city of Philadelphia. After several years
he was offered a position with the city of Paris, France, to improve their Air
Port water system, he declined. He was offered Director of City Parks,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, declined. He was offered a position with the City
of New York but declined due to my mother’s illness. During his college years
he worked for the Sears Company Main office building, then called Sears and
Roebuck, in Philadelphia., were he supervised 25 persons. He was in charge of
the fourth floor which handled Dry Goods and Catalog sales. He also was
employed by Albright and Freel Engineering in Philadelphia., PA., during this
period he did a theses on the construction of the Endicott-Johnson factory;
which was signed and approved by his engineering Professor, W.N. Seminar. The
factory was constructed from those engineering plans. Best remembered by his
children as never using profane language and wonderful Christmas Seasons.
My greatest recollections of my father are the
wonderful Christmas Seasons we always had. The vacations, which were always
enjoyable and educational. My greatest respect is for something I don't even
think he thought much about, but I have. My father never used profane language.
So, I salute him, and I am happy that I can tell him, in this book, that I did
notice, and I do respect him deeply.
Note: My father's recollections as a young boy
delivering the "Grit" newspaper. Dictated to me on January 28, 2001,
his age 85. Little did he know he would marry into the Exley family? He had a
black dog-named Jack and with Jack and his shed he would deliver the newspapers
during the winter. It would be snowing heavily but Henry Exley would always
say, " don't worry little Ernie Hatton will deliver that newspaper! ( This
was told to me by my great grandmother Mertie Potter Exley also). He remembers
delivering the Grit to Caroline Coleman. He would usually get there about 11:00
in the morning everyday. Mrs. Coleman would always ask if he was hungry and
he'd answer yes, because he had started out early and it was quite a trip. She
would fix him an entire breakfast, eggs, pancakes, bacon, just about
everything. He loved arriving there because it was so cold and she was so nice
to him. He also remembers the older Henley’s down in Lopez. Doesn't remember
which ones but Mr. Henley chewed tobacco and when he spit it out he would spit
it on the stove and it would just burn away. Mrs. Henley smoked a corncob pipe.
They were always kind and he had a chance to warm up again. One of the Henley
boys from Cherry Hill married Clara Hatton.
Various notes received over the years:
Note from Emy:
I grew up in Binghamton and am therefore well familiar
with the history of these factories and who came and worked there. For one
thing, Endicott, which with Binghamton and Johnson City, makes up the Triple
Cities, was virtually a one-industry town for the workers at the big
"EJ" shoe factories there throughout the early and mid-twentieth
century. Many Italian and eastern European families came to Endicott and
Johnson City to work at EJ.
Other families, apparently like yours, emigrated to
the southern tier of New York and the northern tier of Pennsylvania for
opportunity. For example, the Sammons** family into which my Kelly ancestors on
my father's mother's side married came to Luther Mills, Bradford County from Poughkeepsie, NY. The
Potter family, of which Ernie Hatton, one of our premier contributors, is a
descendant, came from New England to Sullivan County. The movement from the
Hudson Valley to the Susquehanna Valley was a process lasting over 100 years.
**Editor's Note: In August 2005, Ken Beirne told us more about the Sammons family from which he is descended. They actually went to Luther Mills from East Fishkill, NY. Ken's great-grandmother, Emma Edith Luther Sammons Granger, was involved with a very messy divorce in the 1870s, about the time the Molly McGuire executions were being carried out around Pottsville, PA. The Sammons clan set up in Luther MIlls before becoming citizens in Towanda. They were non-Catholics, so there was "much to-do" when Ken's grandfather, Charles Sammons, married Josephine "Josie" Kelly. Charles never spoke to his father William again after the 1870 marital conflict, even though they both worked for the Lehigh Valley Railroad. William eventually died and was buried in Sayre, PA. In Ken's view, much of the information about the Sammons family in H. C. Bradsby's History of Bradford County (Chicago, IL: S. B. Nelson, 1891) is inaccurate because the author relied on biased family lore instead of checking it out. That wouldn't be the first time!
Incidentally, Ernie's father, Ernest Hatton Sr., and
uncle, Gordon Rudolphus Exley, grandson of Mertie Potter and nephew of Leo
Exley, son of Mertie Potter, were responsible for building an EJ factory in
Bernice in Sullivan County, PA after World War Two to create job opportunities
there to replace mining. Leo Exley played an important part in arranging the
placement of the factory in Bernice. He was an executive of Endicott
Johnson.

Note by Ernest 2nd. : August 6th. 2001. Making
preparations to visit my father for his " 86th. Birthday."
Hi Ernest,
I'm having real problems this end trying to tie our families together. I
am finding my entire branch in North Hereford, and yours appear to be the
branch in South Hereford, but I haven't got far enough back yet to find the
common ancestor.
The earliest mention so far is 1359 - John de Hatton,
Chaplain to the Vicarage of Ledbury.- Potent Rolls. This I'm sure is your
branch as Ledbury is so close to the Ross area.
Anyway, as soon as I get something I'll shout!
Cheers for now,
Eddie.
(This is Edwin Hatton of Hereford, England)
Note: January 24, 2002. Dad had a stroke January 17th.
He seems to be making a come back. His speech is not good and he has numbness
in his right arm, but his spirits are high and he likes to talk even though
it's hard to understand him. I had a card sent from Laura Bush, the First Lady,
which he rec'd a few days before his stroke. He really enjoyed the card. I had
asked that they send it immediately and not wait until his next birthday. Many
of our new found family members wrote to me and expressed their concerns.
Notes of Ernest Arthur Hatton 2nd. aka Jr. : There are
a number of Ernest Arthur Hatton's of England. One of which attended Oxford two
others could be related along the line, one born 1876 Chelsea, another 1894
Westbourne. Both would be from a related branch that remained in England.

My mother, your grandmother Dawn, is buried at
Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church, Trinity Chapel. Most of the families are
buried at Trinity Lutheran. A few are buried with ten miles at Peace Lutheran
and Bahr cemetery. Gordon William Hatton Sr. was cremated but his urn is buried
with my mother. Church records indicate that he is there.
Our mother was dearly loved by all her sons. She had a
difficult time with her health but she always maintained her faith in God and
passed it on to us. My mother was so close to me that her death was extremely
difficult and I have not mentioned it until this time. She was a wonderful
loving mother. When I was young, and misbehaved, she would make me read the
Bible. I then had to explain what it meant. The result was that I learned many
valuable lessons.
My mother had such a wonderful heritage. Her family
history is well known. Her Potter family arrived in 1635 and were first
settlers of New Haven Connecticut. She was from Puritan ancestry. John Potter
being the first to arrive in America. The family had many Revolutionary and
Civil War soldiers as well as preachers. My mother was very easy to be around
and very well liked. She thought her sons were the best and often embarrassed
us. The thing she disliked most was when we would start to giggle in church and
then could not control ourselves. The more the three of us (brothers) tried the
harder it was and the more we laughed. Mom did not like that at all.
JUST A STORY
I remember one Sunday. Mom and Dad could not make it
to church so I drove the three of us Boys. I was just sixteen. On the way home
Gordon asked Paul for a stick of gum. Paul wouldn't give him one. He used to
try and save his things. Gordon kept asking and Paul kept saying no. Finally,
we reached home and as we were walking up the front walk Gordon punched Paul
right in the mouth. Well, I thought Paul should have given him the gum, but I
could not stand for that. So I hit Gordon and we were all fighting there in the
front yards. My mother was so embarrassed. We would get a Pepsi from our
parents and Gordon and I would drink ours. Paul would take a little sip and put
it back in the refrigerator. One day Gordon drank it and replaced it with tea.
What a fight that created.
My mother was never well so we, the boys, would do the
dishes, wash floors, anything that needed to be done. Her health is one of the
reasons two of us had to stay elsewhere during the summer months. I have to say
though that it did create a feeling on the part of Gordon and myself as being a
little bit removed since Paul remained always. We never said anything to our
parents but just to each other. I think it would have been better if when Paul
reached a certain age he joined us or one of the older stayed with our parents.
Of course, that is hindsight and no one thought much
about it I guess. The relationship between my father and Paul though was always
much stronger and we knew it. Gordon was next and I at the end. I think I
favored my mother's family too much.
My grandmother Exley, I think, felt it because she
seemed to favor me, or tried to fill the gap. Nonetheless it is not all that
relative considering everything.
My mother enjoyed shopping in downtown Philadelphia,
especially at Christmas. She would take me with her and we would but roasted
chestnuts and go to all the grand stores. It was very much like New York City
then. My grandfather was in the Mayor's Cabinet at that time and I believe we
stopped by his office once or twice. My greatest thrill though was visiting
Santa Claus who was on the eight or ninth floor of Strawbridge Clothier as I
recall. I noticed though that there were a lot of Santa Clauses and I asked my
mother which one was the real one? She said the one at Strawbridge, the others
were just helpers dressed up to give a hand. That made sense to me...
When I was very young and Dad had to attend college
at, night or to work, he held down a few jobs, Mom would be a little frightened
by herself so she would get me out of bed and while she ironed we listed to the
radio and have potato clips and Pepsi. That was a great time for a little guy
and a really big deal as it was a treat to have potato chips and a Pepsi. One
was lucky to have such a treat once a week. Ice cream was a major treat and we
may be treated to a cone possibly once every two weeks.
As I got older 7 to 10 years old I would gather empty
bottles for the deposit and give the money to my mother. Joe Talarico was my
buddy for many years and we did a lot together. At 11years I got my first job,
a newspaper route, and worked from that time on. I would give the money I
earned to my mother and she would give me a little change back to have a soda
each day I worked.
Mom always had a great meal on the table. We would eat
a whole loaf of bread every evening. There were some great favorites like her
beef stew, crab cakes, fried chicken, meat loaf and on Sundays we always had
roast beef and sometimes a roast chicken or turkey. Dad like fresh oyster stew
and mom would prepare that for him, but my brothers and I, at that time didn't
care for it.
Once in a while we would go out to eat at the Casa
Conti in Willow Grove area. We loved the place. That, of course, was a major
treat.
Mom needed a lot of help because of her heart so we
did a lot around the house as kids. I learned a lot from my father, as he never
hired anyone to prepare/fix anything at all. He fixed everything including the
car. So, I scraped wall paper, hung wall paper, tiled walls, repaired pipes,
electric, put down tile floors, took engines apart........everything.
In later years mom couldn't climb the stairs so the
dinning room had to be converted into a bedroom so that she would not have to
leave one floor. I had just left when my father made the change. They had the
summer/year-round house then at Lake Wallenpaupack where they eventually moved.
My mother loved that home. It had a great view out over the lake. She was very
happy there. My father retired a little early so that they could move into that
home. My daughter had a chance to visit and pick Huckle berries (Blue Berries)
in the woods out back and to do a little fishing. My daughter having been born
in Florida knew nothing about the
woods of Pennsylvania, which I love dearly. She caught a fish and was very excited but then became
concerned that it would die. She started crying and asked me to please save the
fish and put it back into the lake. I will never love anyplace as much as my
Pennsylvania woods.
While we were there we went out to see the
deer at night and the fields were full. Some fields had close to a hundred. The wild turkeys were
in abundance also. Deer often are in yards next to the house in the morning and
evening and even brown bears will make an appearance once in a while. I
remember my dad telling me he had a mother and three cubs in the yards one
morning. It wasn't all that uncommon to see bear. My mother was a dear woman
who we loved very deeply. Her death was really too much for me at the time. I
had a hard time dealing with it. She had always relied on me, being the oldest,
and we had a deep loving relationship.

Eva is such a sweet lady. We were blessed to have her
come into our lives, and my fathers, after the death of our dear mother. Her
desire is to please and to be pleasant, and we respect her for those qualities
and her desire to be apart of our family. She is a wonderful person. Eva was
raised in Mildred and Bernice in Sullivan County and she knew both my father
and mother's families so she knew a great deal about us. Our daughter Dawn
really only has known Eva as her grandmother. The story that often is repeated
is the manner in which Eva, grand mom to Dawn, treats everyone who visits. If
you are hungry than it certainly is not Eva's fault. She wants everyone to be
comfortable and well fed. If there is something you want to do, Eva always
seconds the motion. As I was writing this book I often asked her to check it
out as I knew she would find my mistakes regarding many of the family members
that she knew and I would have the opportunity to correct them. I remember one
winter when Dawn, her friends, and I visited. Dawn and her friends thought they
had just finished breakfast only to find it was the prelude to the real
breakfast. No complaints as the breakfasts were delicious. She is a master at
crossword puzzles.

My aunt loves us deeply. The day she died I wrote my
first Christian song for her called " The Life of Christ ". I wanted
to put the entire Life of Christ into one song and dedicate it to her. She was
active in the church and choir. She was a wonderful vocalist and could play the
piano beautifully. She played every Christmas. We always had Christmas at my
grand parents home. Everyone came and stayed. We would go into the woods and
cut our tree, sing Christmas carols. My aunt would play the piano. Always went
to midnight Christmas service. We would open presents after church and the
kids, that's includes me, were allowed to stay up. The men always got the same
old thing "Old Spice" stuff. They were gracious and acted like it was
a really big surprise. The kids got some good stuff and underwear, or pajamas,
maybe socks. We got something that was priceless though and we knew it. We got
lots of love and attention. Kids would give up a lot today for that kind of
gift. Oh, almost forgot, my grand father would run across the front porch
ringing bells pretending he was Santa and the reindeer (I repeat myself). I
thought he was........ It was nice to think that way. Boy, it was hard to let
Santa go. Whew, what a bummer. But my wife said I got to let go, there isn't
any Santa Claus!! Only kidding, it was hard.

Born July 6, 1925 on a Monday at 12:25 A.M. 81/4 lbs.
My uncle lived with us when I was a kid. We were
living on McMahon Street in Germantown, Philadelphia. We spent a lot of time
with him. He was younger than my father and wasn't married at the time. He
would play pretty rough with Gordon and I.
These were the years of great holiday get togethers
and family reunions. We had a large family and people would come to Bernice
from New York State as well. There was at least 30-40 of us each year. We
always had the reunions at Worlds End. That was the first time I met Aunt June,
or my aunt to be. At this writing my cousin Robert Hatton now lives in the area
but I haven't seen him more than twice. August 24, 2001.
Uncle Bill attended Penn State University later and
studied Mechanical Engineering. He received his degree and moved to
Williamsport, PA after marrying Aunt June. He later worked on the very first
Space Craft at Cape Kennedy. Had much to do with window design among other
things. He, my aunt June, and cousins had moved to Binghamton, N.Y. His
brother, my father, Ernest was best man at wedding.
He would visit me in Florida while doing work at the
Cape.
My uncle Bill was a good guy. He liked to play
baseball, football, any sport at all. He would always be at my grand parents
for Christmas along with his family. Gosh, would we eat. He had a hearty laugh
and always liked having a good time. I remember going to the fair and watching
him polka. He was good. They had everything at the church fair until the state
police raided them. One armed bandits, boxing, spinning wheels, cards and good
food. That went on for years. They got the one armed bandits from the Catholic
Church, I think, not sure. The town had a baseball team and everybody attended
those games. There wasn't a lot to do. We did have a movie theater, but that
burned down. So it was up to us to find entertainment. We would fish, swim and
pick berries. Almost forgot, we always had a family reunion. It was the last
two weeks in August so that we could have fresh corn. That's when I learned to
swim. My Dad said it was real simple only two steps were necessary. So off we
went. We were at a place called Worlds End. That's where we always had our
unions. Well we got to the water and my Dad showed me the two steps they were.
Number one, he picked up. Number two, he threw me in the deep water.....That’s it,
two steps to learn how to swim. Those two steps can also apply to... how to
drown in two steps. Either way it's a fast track to learning.

EDITH JO HATTON:
Teacher To Miss Neighbor
Letter to the Editor.
I have been away. My return was saddened because of
the loss to our community created by the death of Edith Jo Hatton DiMarzio. I
feel that I must pay tribute to the short life unselfishly lived. I have known
Edie Jo since she was a little girl, fun loving and shy, growing up in
Edgeworth. She married William L. DiMarzio and accepted the responsibilities of
homemaker and motherhood. I began knowing her as a responsible citizen interested
in school and community when Billy, her only child, enrolled in four year old
kindergarten. During Billy's five year old year, she was Home Room P.T.A.
Mother. She did many thoughtful things for the children and me that were far
beyond her basic duties. We all loved her.
Edie Jo was one of the finest of the many fine young
mothers I am privileged to work with. Edie Jo had a natural gift for working
with children. This gift was freely given in her work with the Edgeworth Cub
Scouts. She worked tirelessly for the Pack and her Den. Little boys were always
knocking on the door with questions or help on a project. She always had time
for them. Her home was across from the Edgeworth school playground. After
school and during the summer many a bump was soothed. Mommy was called and
comfort was given during the waiting time for mommy. Her sphere was not only
children; she had time to help adult friends and participated in church and
community activities. Edie Jo loved her family, home, church and this community
without thought of award accepted the obligation that such love
demands..............She will be missed.
Sincerely, Elizabeth B. Johnson, Kindergarten Teacher,

Greetings,
During President Ford's administration I was contacted to make a
contribution to the restoration of the Statue of Liberty. I received the
notification of the donation and was told a small plaque would be placed. Today
for the first time, with the letter in hand, I decided to see if it was there.
Apparently, it is not! However it has been corrected.
Can you tell me why not? It should be listed as Mr.
and Mrs. Ernest A. Hatton. I was about to make another donation, but it seems
that there is no record of the first except the letter sent to me.....Ernest
Hatton
Ernest Jr. aka 2nd. Donated the Cross-, candlesticks,
offering plates and Bible to Trinity Lutheran Church, Mildred, Pennsylvania.
Ernest and Noreen Hatton donated the stain glass window in St. Luke’s Lutheran
Church in Oviedo, Florida in honor of Anna Marie Exley Hatton and Dorothy
Younglove Vice, their mothers.
Note: Ernest became a member of the " Sons of
Union Soldiers of the Civil War " through his gg-grandfather George
Gilbert Potter who served with the 58th. PA Vols. For more information about George Gilbert Potter, see George Whitefield Potter and the New England Migration.
Hello Ernest,
Excuse me for this late answer.
HATTON: Origine Sarthe (France) XIII° century.
"HATH" is the Germanic roots and stands for fight. I'm now studying
this patronym in Lorraine, a region of the east France.
I have found a lot of HAT(T)ON since the 16° century.
There used to be many religious and military men among them. There were 2
bishops born within 760 and 800 a.c. The last one was a friend and a confidant
of the Emperor Lothaire the first, grandson of Charlemagne.
It is more likely that some HAT(T)ON, coming from Lorraine
in France, have moved into other countries such as England, U.S.A. and Quebec
where the patronym can sometimes be found. Though, I haven't already brought
out a link.
If you have some clues about your own forbears, please
let me know. I will study all this and search for the possible parallels.
Sincerely,
Jean-Claude HATON

SEPTEMBER 11, 2002 (writing to Bob Sweeney)
Bob, I didn’t remember writing that to you. I'm happy
that you feel the same way. I would hope that those that read it understand
it's really all about them. One of the reasons I didn't restrict my genealogy.
I guess I wanted to pass something on that I could
identify with... and many others could also. I really think it's time to talk
about the heroes of this nation that had so much in common with the heroes of
September 11th. I had a difficult time finding much to be proud of in these
last years and then they came along, our heroes of September 11th. It wasn't
just the firemen, police meter yen and medics either. It was the complete
dignity of the American people. When you looked at television on that horrible
day one thing stood out. It was the faces of people who came from everywhere.
They were from Europe, Asia, Africa and so many places throughout the world.
Some new, others a few generations removed from their original immigrant
families and lastly, the familiar names of our Pilgrim Fathers. Most, when they
spoke,
Sounded like the rest of us. It was just their origin
that was visible. What you heard was different and over a telephone they would
sound very much the same. I thought about the Irish cop that we so often, and
with great admiration talk about. A traditional job in so many families. We
knew what he was made of, unfortunately our enemies didn't. The same is true
for the Italian guy, not the mobsters we all hear about, but the guy we grew up
with. I have to tell you that on that day I was horrified at the slaughter
Brought on by people obsessed with hate, yet at the
same time my heart was filled with a pride that cannot be measured. I can
remember sitting there and saying to myself, " God, we are still alive and
strong..... Willing to go into burning, falling buildings to save whoever are
there. No time to hate or wonder. Time was short and people needed help. There
wasn't even time to think about their lives, they were there to save others at
all cost. Where in the history of the world can you find such noble people? I
often think about the crests we place in our homes to identify ourselves with
the nobleman who first earned them. Just think about the children left behind
from the coward deeds of September 11th. They are a first generation of real
nobleman and women and should be so proud of their family members, I am. If one
good thing came from that day it was the pride instilled in all of us by those
people who proved, beyond a doubt, that we are truly a nation of great and
noble people and not a nation falling from the grace of God. That day replaced
all the indignities thrust upon us by people who hide behind what they perceive
as freedom of speech while they fill the air waves with trash.
Whatever, whoever, God is I don't know, nor have I
bothered to pick a path chosen by others to walk. I know I believe in a God and
that God tells me personally not to judge, not to think I only know what he
wants from us, I don't. And, there are others, who it appears to me worship the
same God, or
Possibly another who gives us the very same message.
No matter, whatever was in the hearts of those people who gave us hope again in
so many ways, they knew something, or felt something that captured us all and
instilled in us a great pride again. And, they weren't trying to do that, they
were just being
Themselves. Certainly every single one of them will
find peace and they will remain embedded forever in the history of this nation,
today's Pilgrims, miners, factory worker, police meter yen, firemen, all
citizens, men and women who just reacted to do something for their fellowman. I
don't know, what else I can say. I'm so very proud of my fellow Americans who
died and risked their lives with such dignity. How is it possible that the
world could not see that the American spirit is alive and well, and more
importantly filled with love as well as a resolve to preserve our nation, a
symbol of what is truly right in a world gone mad. I think God wanted some of
the ashes of that day to forever remain, but I don't know. These are just my
thoughts. I have learned to appreciate the individual person who I come upon
each day.
Every now and then I see a hero who isn't noticed, or
appreciated. Still they do what they seemed destined to do and that is to serve
their communities as best they can. We, as a people, need to elevate our
thinking to the understanding of the deeds our neighbors who do so many little
things each day. They are usually the same people. I wish I knew a way to
convey this message, so that we thank those people. For you see, should the
time come when we need heroes again.... it will likely be those very people
that we take for granted everyday. Isn't it befitting to say thank you now?
I didn't mean to go on like that! The answer to your
question is yes; I’m honored that you would like to ad what I wrote.
Thanks Bob, for all that you do, you are greatly
appreciated, Ernie
A mistake between my father and a kind compliment, but I greatly
appreciates.

Note:Stated that Gairey is entered in thr family Bible
as GARY and was never addressed otherwise. Tall, handsome man, brown hair. She
knew Gary well as they both lived on the same street. Krobusek is her married
name. She mentioned that Dorothy, Noreen's mother was mentioned in different
land abstracts but that she or her mother signed off on those properties. That
lost track of Dorothy and had no way of contacting her. They remained in the
same area so it would have been easy for Dorothy to contact, three families, at
least, lived within a block of each other in Cleveland.
She will try to send copies of family photographs of
Noreen's grandfather, great grandfather and seven of the children.

This poem unsigned came to me by way of the Internet
and Mom, Noreen loved it so I saved here..
Love, Ernie
If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it
would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in
praise,
I would videotape each action and Road,
so I could play them back day after
day.
If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
Instead of assuming you would KNOW I
do.
If I knew it
would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.
For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything just right.
There will always be another day
to say "I love you,"
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can
do?"
But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,
That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last
wish.
So hold your loved ones close today,
and whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear
Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive me,"
"Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.

iv. DAWN ANN-MARIE7 HATTON55,56,57, b. October 09, 1980, Orlando, Orange Co., Florida.
Dawn was born in Florida Hospital, Orlando, Orange Co,
Florida. Baptized November 9, 1980. Godparents are Darlene Griffin [formerly
Darlene Ann Vice, aunt] and Sandy Contella, father's friend. She attended St.
Luke’s Lutheran School from kindergarten to through the eight grades. She then
spent her four years in high school at Lake Howell High. She graduated as a
National Honor Society student and received a scholarship to Florida State
University. Dawn grew up in our house on Hounds lake Drive. She has two dogs
Toby, a Pomeranian and Chase, a Maltese. We lost one, Lucky, of old age, a
Pomeranian. She has given me two caps from F.S.U. to send to her grandparents.
Dawn Ann-Marie is a delightful young lady.
She has a wonderful smile, full of enthusiasm and wit, a great student, who
also enjoys sports and extra activities. She has always been on the National
Honor Society, in leadership classes and peer mediation, and she was on the
cross-country track team. Dawn loves New York City and Broadway Plays. She has
been a loving daughter. I, and her mother, have great respect for this fine
daughter. As I write this we are about to go on an adventure by train to
Pennsylvania from Winter Park, Florida..... Home again, and the trip was
terrific.
Dawn and friends went to a play in New York City. We saw her
grandparents, visited Mildred and Dushore. Visited Bobby Exley, Hatton’s and
Beavers. Warmed the house in Mildred with coal and firewood. Paul was with us
and I was glad Dawn could see the old house. It seemed small to me now. What a
wonderful time we had as kids in that house. It was there that the traditions
of the Holidays, that Dawn loves so much, came from. My grandfather running
across the porch ringing bells pretending to be Santa Claus. All the family
together and Christmas Eve Church Service. Cutting the tree from the woods, the
snow and the warm fireplace. I was glad Paul and I could be there together.
This books my last endeavor. It won't be perfect, but there's enough here to
give that foundation of who we are and who we can be. It all comes down to God
and Love. That's what a real life is all about? God has to be in your heart, if
so, you can create a sort of temporary heaven on earth, at least for your
family. Each generation has to give to the next their best wisdom, love, and
all the joy they can. Enjoy the unknown, keeps the secrets of Christmas, the
mystery, while keeping Christ in your heart. Let Santa and Rudolph come to
town. You can have it all! So remember Christ, keep the fireplace glowing,
treat Santa and the reindeer to cookies and milk, put lights outside the house,
sing, have the family over, think about the poor and do something for them. Oh,
and if you can run across the porch and ring the bells!
Dawn was accepted to Florida State University June 1999. She was elected
President of Broward Hall in her freshman year 1999. Her desire is to serve her
country in the Congress of the United States. Her favorite thing is, of course,
the Holidays, fireplace blazing, football season, plays, shopping with her Mom,
discussing deep subjects with her Dad, and doing something every single moment.
She has had a lifetime of experiences. Favorite thing to shout...Go Noles!! for
the F.S.U. football team. As I write this she will be coming home for
Thanksgiving 1999. Tomorrow is the last game for our undefeated Noles football
team, but they're playing the University of Florida number 3 at the moment. So,
a phone call will come from the dorm either way. Hope it's a happy call.
Tickets were sold out!! Christmas is just around the corner and Dawn wants me
to really decorate outside. Lots of lights. She loves this house.

Dawn was a member of the International Council of Florida, State
Department International Visitor's Program in 2001, when the program was
nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
She
became a member of the Daughter's of Union Veterans of the Civil War in May 21,
2001. She was inducted in the Julia Dent Grant tent 57, Oil City, Franklin,
Pennsylvania. Ms. Frances Bridges, secretary, has been wonderful in helping
with the induction, hoping we could get it done before Dawn left for
Washington. She joined the Franklin tent because of two reasons. First, her
ggg-grandfather was from Pennsylvania. When he enlisted. Secondly, because
Franklin is near her mother's early home in Union City, and I must add that Ms.
Bridges had a profound influence. Dawn liked her so very much right from the
beginning.
She leaves for Washington for the summer in two days
and has been asked to return again next year. I hope that politics doesn't turn
her off. She will be working for the RNC this summer of 2001.
Well, she is home from Washington and has now left us
to start new years at Florida State University. She had a successful internship
in Washington and a very brief one-week vacation. She just called 12:15 August
13 to say she arrived safely.
September 23. 2001. Dear Dawn, too bad about our football loss tonight.
I guess we never thought we would lose. I was just making a few notes, as I
couldn't sleep. I made a slide show of the events of September 11th. 2001 for
you and your family. I also put the family tree on a CD. Added more about your
GGG-Grandfather's Civil War battles and noted that it seems like he was the
only one who wrote about Chapin's [Chaffin’s] Farm, or at least at the time.
Enough of that stuff. I was really happy that Speaker Feeney could find a place
for you. I hope whatever you do, in the office, will be of value in the future.
I was really pleased that arrangements could be made and am grateful to the
Speaker for doing so. I have been watching the news too much lately, but the
attack on our country is so terrible. I hope that you will enjoy life as much
as possible and always keep your family close. Never let disagreements turn
into something that cannot be repaired within the family. Teach your children
to have faith and always keep God in their hearts. May God Bless our nation in
these terrible times.
I
hope you enjoyed the trip even though we lost. God Bless, Dad

Notes for GORDON WILLIAM SR. HATTON:
GORDON WILLIAM HATTON Sr.
Gordon was best known for his kind heart. His ashes
buried with our mother that we so dearly loved. Gordon the adventurer, who
traveled and lived through out the United States, but came home to spend his
remaining years, not far from the mines that our ancestors once worked. The
first Hatton’s to come to the United States were re-united with Gordon who died
in Scranton, Pennsylvania just minutes from Nanticoke and the mines that
Hatton’s worked and died in.
My brother was married twice. He didn't have much
contact with his children from his first marriage. However, I have gotten to
know my nephew Gordon Jr. He lives just a short distance from our home and we
have a very nice relationship. I talk to him about his father and try to
explain the faults and also the good. I think it has been good for him to hear
about his father from someone who knew him so well.
We were very close brothers although very different.
However, we enjoyed each other and had spent so much time together without our
parents and brother Paul that we had a special relationship. Gordon seemed to
have given up on life at about 50 years old. He wasn't depressed, just didn't
have the zest for life. I think all of the difficulties had burdened him so
that he just couldn't find anything that really interested him. His son is
quite intelligent and well mannered. He seems to want to belong and of course
he is most welcome.
I see a lot of his father in him and I don't know of
anyone more able than I to make such a statement for no one knew my brother
better than I.
Notes for DOROTHY NOLAN:
Dorothy Nolan and her children presently living in
Florida in 1999. Gordon Junior has visited his uncle Ernest 2nd. Several times.
He and the rest of the family are living near New Smyrna Beach Florida about
one hour's drive from Winter Park, Florida.

Gordon met Margaret Weiss while he was living in
California.

73. PAUL RAYMOND6 HATTON (ERNEST ARTHUR SR.5, CHARLES WILLIAM4, CHARLES WILLIAM3, CORNELIUS2, JOHN1) was born August 07, 1942 in Chestnut Hill,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.. He
married KATHLEEN JOAN TROBICH, daughter of MICHAEL TROBICH and LILLIAN CILINGIN. She was born March 04, 1947 in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania..
PAUL RAYMOND HATTON
Paul, the woodsman, is much like his ancestor Philip
Hatton who lived in the Forest of Dean in England. The Royal Hunting Forest, in
the late 1600s. Paul, the bow and arrow hunter, who never failed to find his
game. We enjoyed the wild turkey, deer sausage, and venison, over the open fire
in his " Forest of Dean" in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. My brother's
hunting forest is like the Hatton's Forest of Dean of England. Paul belongs to
the past. He would be, the" Sir Knight of the Bow." England should
have waited for him. In fact, he is descended from a "Sir Knight of the
Bow." Quite interesting isn't it?
Paul graduated from Germantown High School and Spring
Garden Institute. For many years he worked as a master technician for various
General Motors dealerships. He married Kathleen Joan Trobich (creating a
Kathleen Hatton to match Kathleen Hatton in England) and they have two
daughters, Jill Lynn Hatton and Holly Lynn Hatton. Paul and Kathy purchased
their home in Southampton, Pennsylvania. when they married and they continue to
live. For many years Paul was a softball coach and officer of the Southampton
Girls Club, earning community recognition for his tireless work with the girls.
His work often written about in the local newspapers. Today Paul spends his
time on the twenty-acre farm, mentioned, that he and Kathy purchased several
years ago where he continues to hunt and fish. After the death of his
grandmother, Louise Hatton, Paul purchased the old home site in Mildred, PA,
and continues to use it as a hunting cabin. He enjoys going there several times
a year and visits with our relatives Exley’s (Potters) Beavers, Orlowsky’s and
Hatton’s.
Paul's photograph has appeared in the Sullivan Review
numerous times showing his hinting results: Deer, Wild turkey etc. I'll just
note these two recent ones. Thursday 24, May 2001. Paul Hatton of Southampton
and Bernice with a 21 lb. turkey he shot in Cherry Township. With him is Jeff
Stroup also from Southampton, PA. There's another photograph of a turkey one
week before bagged by Jeff. Both were shot with bow and arrow. Paul photograph
and game appear every year.
Letter of February 2002 makes reference to Paul. This
family lived across the road from the Bernice house of my Hatton grandparents.
Hi,
Thank you for replying so quickly! I called Mom to read her your note and
see what she remembered. I must
have referred to you as "Mr. Hatton" and she said she remembered an
Ernest, which obviously is your Dad.
Mom and Dad lived in the house I described with Grandpa Dubenko and Aunt
Irene for about
three months after they were married in 1946. Off the top of her head Mom's first
memory was of your mother, whose name she couldn't remember (Mom is 79 and said
it will take a little while for her brain to get in gear). She remembered how hard your mother
would work when one of her grandchildren
(she didn't remember who, but it was a boy) would come
to visit. He had a terrible case
of asthma. She remembers your
mother bought special pillows for him and would work like crazy so the house
would be as clean as possible for him.
We really miss Dad, for many reasons, of course, but
Mom was just saying how he would have been able to tell you so much more. That's why I'm working as quickly as I
can now. I've lost a good number
of sources. Besides my dad, Father John Polinsky, who lived with his mother
Frances Evanchesky until she died was a good source. He was one of my grandfather's (Joseph Polinsky) nephews.
It's wonderful your dad is still alive.
Shortly before my dad died, there was a ceremony in our town to raise
money for the Veteran's Memorial to be built in Washington. Dad was a part of it, of course. We all bought red, white, and blue
balloons for $10.00 each and that contribution was sent to Washington. The speaker at the event mentioned the
tremendous number of veterans that die everyday and how we
really need to move on building it or none of them
will ever see it -- I'm finding that to be so true. Recently a number of vets that we knew in this area have
passed on. I hope your Dad lives
to see it built!! I'm not even certain of the status of it with all that's
happening in the country.
Since your dad is only two years younger than my dad,
who would have been 88 last August, there's a chance your dad might recognize
the picture or remember dad or possibly his younger sisters, Irene (who died
suddenly in 1950), Clara, Frances, and Julia. My maternal grandmother (Mary Dubosh
Polinsky) was the daughter of Mary Haraksin and Andrew
Dubosh. The family story is that
Andrew was the head of a union for the coal mines (or was held some position
supporting the union) and was chased by non-union workers, causing him to fall
and have a limp for the rest of his life. It probably
was then that he moved to Syracuse, NY. The house where dad grew up was a
duplex. At one time the Vicki
family lived on the other side of the duplex and Mom believes that the
Pretician family lived on the other side at one time. Mom said that the house next to the duplex on one side was
where the
Barsavage family lived and Mrs. Barsavage really
raised the Dubenko children since Clara was only 2 months old when her mother
died. My father quit school to
help as well. On the other side of
the duplex was Mr. Monahan who lived in a new house and was the head of the
mines. Across the street from
the duplex was the house of Susan Polinsky (my
mother's paternal grandmother), next was the Tropani family, then the Strabilla
(not sure of the spelling) family, and then the Minarsky family. The names other than Hatton in your
family are familiar to my mother, but she can't recall anything in particular
about them at the moment. What is
your stepmother's name? I hope I
gave you enough information that might ring a bell for your dad.
Many thanks for taking the time to do this!

Choir with his parents, Chuck and Cathy Hatton. Ben is the youth member to
Annual Conference. This poem is reprinted with his permission.
How shall we teach the
children now,
In this time of Grief and Pain.
We ask ourselves, "How just How?"
What was going on in the killers brain.
He plots his plan so very well
In his head clear as a bell.
Just because he had a grudge
He
gave his school "the fatal smudge."
We need to teach the children NOW,
How to forgive and not to "pow."
We ask ourselves how can this be done?
They respond,
"It shall be fun."
As this was said the wars raged on.
Some say "war is how the world works."
Whoever said this was a jerk.
We shall someday live
in peace,
but for this all war must cease.
For when the wars are gone and done
we shall finally see the clear sun.
This is for the children dead,
every Jack and Jane, Bartholomew and Fred.
And for the killers too,
Forgive them God, and let them through.
