I am looking for information on Captain Hawes Hatch (1747-1797)of De Lancey's Regiment and his son William Hatch who was born in NB (1784-1873). Basically, I am trying to confirm William's birth and parents. I understand that Captain Hawes and his brother Captain Christopher Hatch were banished from Boston and were given land grants in NB/NS. Hawes later returned to NH where he died. He seemed to be married twice to Elizabeth Leehr and Jerusha?? Who was William's mother? Also, was there a split in the family between Loyalists and Patriots? We are descended from William's son Levi Henry Hatch. from Lucy
