Nope Nelly dear, abacus is fine and batteries aren't dead! That number comes from family tree DNA web site which shows that many Y-DNA matches (participants?) in the program... And yes, I realize that they are not all "Hatchers", I too wish they were... And always the big question? If the Major hails from the Edward line, who was Roberts' father, grandfather?? Inquiring minds want to know! :) Regards to all, William W. Hatcher Sr. Milledgeville, Ga.

I wish!! Check your abacus, W W - the battery died :-) And Jeff is from the Edward line.....which is one more bullet in reinforcing my belief that Maj John is from Edward.
