I am looking for anyone who has proof of Abel Thomas Hatcher's wives who are supposedly 1) Elizabeth Jane Eichelbarger and 2) Phoebe Elizabeth Patrick What proof of their last names and marriage dates exists. Our file shows their birth dates to be exactly one day apart and I'm beginning to wonder if there was only one wife - Miss Patrick. Thanks!! Nel

Liz Eichelbarger supposedly md Abel in 1852. But the only Eichelbarger fam in LoganCo was Henry who had no dau named Liz or Phoebe. John B Patrick, father of Phoebe Patrick. is found in the 1840 LoganCo census with dau of Phoebe's age. In 1850 John and wife appear to both be dead and P E Patrick, female, age 12 is living with the Jesse Williams family. Phoebe's DC lists her as Phoebe Elizabeth, IDs her father as John B, husband as Abel T. So Phoebe Patrick can be documented as a wife of Abel. But Liz Eichelbarger cannot. Rushsylvania Cem on FAG shows an Elizabeth Hatcher buried there, bn 1838, no death date. I've requested a photo for this tombstone along with Abel's. And the beat goes on...........! Nel
