  • 42. ELIZABETH4 THACHER (Hon. Col. John,3, Antony,2 Rev. Peter1), born at Yarmouth, Mass., June 19th, 1677; died at Falmouth, Mass. (presumably) May 18th, 1710, and was presumably buried there, the existence of her gravestone has never been discovered by me; married at Falmouth, Mass. (is is recorded there) by John Thacher, Justice of the Peace (her father) on October 18th, 1699, to Deacon Moses Hatch (as his second wife). Elizabeth(4) (Thacher) Hatch was admitted to church at Barnstable, August 2nd, 1702, and was dismissed therefrom to church at Falmouth, October 10th, 1708. Deacon Moses Hatch was born at Falmouth, March 4th, 1662-3; he is said to have been the first white child born there; he was admitted to First Church at Barnstable, June 19th, 1698; and was dismissed to church at Falmouth, October 10, 1708, in which latter church he was a first deacon; he was a farmer and a wealthy man of good business ability and a good citizen; he died at Falmouth, May 20th, 1747, in the 85th year of his age, and was buried there in the old burying ground. He was a son of Jonathan and Sarah (Rowley) Hatch, (Savage says Hannah

  • Deacon Moses Hatch gave to Falmouth the land on which the first church was built and which is now a public square ornamented with trees. He married, first, May 9th, 1686, Hepsiba Eddy, of Tisbury, Martha's Vineyard (said to be the younger sister of Elizabeth Eddy, second wife of his brother, Benjamin Hatch); and by her he had the following children (not in Thacher line):
    • i. Abiah, born February 1st, 1686-7; died February 13th, 1686-7; buried February 14th, 1696-7.
    • ii. M * * * (a son), born February 1st, 1686-7; died February 1st, 1686-7; buried February 2nd, 1686-6.

    • iv. Hepsiba, born February 15, 1690; died — ; married Benjamin Nye, of Falmouth.
  • A Moses Hatch married, about 1710-11, to Hannah, widow of Joshua Bangs, and a daughter of John Scudder, of Barnstable. This Hannah Scudder was baptized October 5th, 1651, and hence was 11 years older than Deacon Moses Hatch. Joshua Bangs died January 14th, 1709-10. Although she was so much older than Deacon Moses Hatch, yet the death of Elizabeth (Thacher) Hatch, his second wife, and the death of Joshua Bangs, Hannah Scudder's first husband, renders it possible that Deacon Moses Hatch had for a third wife Hannah (Scudder) Bangs. The Falmouth Records state "Hannah, wife of Captain Moses Hatch, died May 13th, 1739." If this was the above Hannah (Scudder) Bangs-Hatch, then Deacon Moses Hatch was styled Captain, as was also his son Moses. It is thought by Amos Otis, in his Barnstable Families, that the death record should read, "Mary, wife of Captain Moses Hatch, died May 13th, 1739;" the record, in his opinion, referring to Mary Lord, first wife of Captain Moses, son of Deacon Moses.

  • Thomas Hatch, the true ancestor of our branch of the Hatch family, emigrated to Boston, Mass. in 1630, or early in 1634. The name of his wife was Grace, She was of Welsh descent. I think it probable her family name was Lewis, though that is uncertain. He was probably born about the year 1603, somewhere in the county of Kent, and probably in the town of Biddenden, near Cranbrook; but possibly at or near Sandwich on the sea coast.
  • They had two children, one son and a daughter. They were probably married about 1624, perhaps 1627.
  • JONATHAN, the son, was born in England, probably in 1625. Lydia, the daughter, was probably born about 1628. This implies that his wife, Grace, was born about 1604. It is said he was a tailor by trade. They probably lived in some village, possibly Cranbrook, or Sandwich. His wife, it is said, was the daughter of a farmer, and born and brought up on a farm and accustomed to the usual female labor of a farm at that period of time; among other things to assist in the harvesting or field labor in harvest time and was expert at it. Some anecdotes of them are preserved which show this. He was small, slender, and of feeble strength; she was robust strong and healthy.
  • Thomas Hatch was admitted a freeman of the colony of Massacliusetts Bay at Boston, May 14, 1634.
  • January 17, 1639, he became one of the nine original purchasers of Yarmouth township, Plymouth colony, on Cape Cod; and was admitted a freeman of that colony and removed to that place from Boston.
  • The nine proprietors were Anthony Thatcher, John Crome, Marmaduke Matthews, Thomas Hower, Philip Tabor, William Palmer, Samuel Rider, William Lump-

  • kin and Thomas Hatch. See records of Plymouth colony, General Conrt, January 7, 1639, O. S. for the record of the grant. Part of these persons probably emigrated in the same ship with him, as they were made freemen at Boston with him.
  • In 1640, he became an equal, or joint, proprietor of the township of Barnstable with about twenty-five other men. In June, 1641, he is described as "of Barnstable" in deeds and public records of the colony, and therefore had become a resident of that town. He died there in the year 1661, a respected citizen. He was a member of the Congregational church of that town and probably was a member of that church before leaving England.
  • He was a man of considerable pecuniary means. He was a resident freeholder in Dorchester, Mass., May 14, 1634.
    • JONATHAN HATCH of Falmouth.
  • Jonathan Hatch of Falmouth, son of Thomas and Grace Hatch of Barnstable, was born in England about 1625, and emigrated to America with his parents and resided with them at Boston, Yarmouth and Barnstable. He was of very robust constitution and lived to a great age, it is said near 100 years. He married Sarah Rowley at Barnstable, April 11, 1646.
  • They had the following children:
    • 1. Mary. (m. Weeks.) b. at Barnstable July 16, 1647.
