Bob, In the book "Selma, Her Institutions and Her men" by John Hardy, p.37, it was written that the Whig Party who backed W. H. Harrison for president and John Tyler for vice president formed a "Tippecanoe and Tyler, Too" club. Robert S. Hatcher was a member of this club and was sent as part of the delagation to the Convention in Montgomery in 1840. In the same book, but on page 135 it states that on the 8th of June 1872, the members of the Masonic Lodge # 27 in Selma went to Hatcher's Bluff on the Alabama River and assisted Halo Lodge in the burial ceremonies of Robert S. Hatcher, a member of Halo Lodge. Ther is a listing in the Live Oak Cemetery in Selma, Al. for HOLMES, ANN - "Died October 13,1913. Age 80 years" Hope this has helped just a little bit.
