Hi, I am seeking information on one of my grandpa's cousins. Merkie Hatton was a cousin to "Bert" Elberton Monroe Brewer, but I don't know what the connection was. Merkie lived between Rogers and Pine Ridge on Rt. 715 in Wolfe County in the 1950's and 1960's. She had a son Denzel Hatton, who was blind, who lived with her. Denzel and his wife who was also blind had children; Ellen, Bruce, Juanita, and I think one or two more. The children attended school at Rogers. Ellen Hatton later married Wendell "Copperhead" Deaton, and they had 2 sons before they divorced. If anyone knows Merkie Hatton's family, her parents, husband, etc. I'd sure appreciate any information that they have. I've pondered the relationship for years, but have been unable to find any information to connect Merkie and my grandpa Bert Brewer. Thanks in advance for any help solving this puzzle in my family history. Sincerely, Shirley Brewer
