Nel, I was thinking the same thing. Its what the 1900 Polk County Census says but they give his age as 27. So yes it was the census taker's mistake. Its supposed to say 1873!!!! On the same census it lists Sabra J. Walker as John Hatchers aunt. I'm related to her and I would love to know who these Hatchers are!

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 Beth, I don't know who this John is. I'm not finding any of them, including Sabra, in the 1910 and I don't find Arthur on the 1917 WWI Draft Reg either. What was Sabra's maiden name? That census says she was md only 1 yr and then apparently widowed. Nel
