HATCH Corralesia, b. 11 Jun 1884, Prince George County, VA d. 24 Aug 1961 (Age 77 years) |
| Marriage |
9 May 1901 |
Prince George County, VA |
- My mother told me while Drucilla was still wearing heavy mourning for her first husband, she ran into an old acquaintance while shopping in Petersburg one day. William N. Hatch, who immediately approached her to convey his condolence. He later told my mother, who became his youngest daughter, that he pursued Drucilla astutely, as he had no intentions of losing her as he once did to John Moore. So the courtship was quite brief.
William N. Hatch married Drucilla Newell Moore on July 8, 1863 at the home of her mother, Sallie Newell Hollingsworth. Their original marriage certificate with a complete list of their 11 children, with dates of birth are well preseved in the Hatch Family Bible, which I am using as reference. Thanks to Pearl Hatch Vinding, another grandchild. Her father David Levy Hatch, my uncle, left the Bible for safe keeping with his daughter Pearl who so graciously lent me once she learned I was working on the family geneology. In 1972 Pearl had this Bible rebound, which will add many years, a beautiful job. Information below is transcribed from this "Hatch Bible".
