HATCHER website: http://hatcherfamilyassn.com HALL DNA project: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~nhatcher/hall/HDNAtest.htm "If you can't stand the skeletons, stay out of the closet" - Val D Greenwood Another possible connection found? I noticed the name Benjamin McKinney in the 1826 BibbCo Davis estate records. Benjamin was the father of Sophronia McKinney, one of the wives of Wm Leighton Hatcher, the gson of Wm/Pris and s/o Wm H/Martha. And I find Ben M in the 1830 BibbCo census, unmarried, which matches our recs showing his 1st kid wasn't born til c1835. While Wm H has not been found in the 1830, there are a number of clues that he was in the Bibb/Twiggs area. This all doesn't prove squat but puts another individual from Wm/Pris in the same area with Dempsey and Liz Tharp. Location! Location! Location!!! Nel
