Nel: I have gone through what little information I have on William Hatcher sr. Meager at best and not worked on for a few years. I have never found any sources proving the birth date or place of our Quaker William Hatcher. I am thinking the abt. 1704 date of birth given for him is a guesstimate based on the Bucks County Court Records of the 1720s, the Bucks Co tax list of 1724 and his marriage to Ann Vansant in 1727 in Burlington Co, NJ. I don't even know how we have arrived at the idea the William Hatcher of these Bucks County records is our William Hatcher. Anyone have better information? Early Quaker records? Anything. I have a note from Evelyn Avery noting an Agatha A. Hartley says: "William is descended from the Quaker Hatchers who came to Philadelphia in 1682 & settled in Bucks Co., PA. These are NOT the Henrico Co 'William the Immigrant Hatchers'." I don't find any Hatchers in the Quaker records I have for the area around Philadelphia but I will begin a new search since so many more records of all kinds are available now. Also, in early July my husband and I are going on a trip which will include 3 days for me to research in Salt Lake City so this will go on my priority list.
