Betty,
Thank you for replying...
I have siblings of my great grandpa and I also hae parent names, but no facts to any of it...however...here I go!
Effie Jane Hatfield (b. abt. 1897) married James Fred Steele ( We believe this is where great grandpa took his name from. We were told it was a deceased bro-in-law). Effie may've also married a man named Charlie Steel.
Lura Viola Hatfield possibly married Scott Davis.
James Drury Hatfield possibly married Hattie Hatfield (his cousin).
Augusta "Gussie" Hatfield (b. 7-31-1906-d. 12-19-1988) possibly married to Frank Steel and Virgil Privett.
Then there's Elias whom I am decended from.
I have his father listed as Alexander HAtfield (b. abt. 1866-68) married to Josephine Blankenship (b. 1873-d. 1915) he then re-married to a woman named Maggie (possibly Rowe, her first marriage?) whom my grandma remembered visiting as a child in West Virginia.
I have a photo of "Alex" sitting on a porch with Elias and his two children from this time. It is the only phoot I have but no way to prove it is who I am told it is!
Is that any more helpful?
Again, I thank you in advance for any help!
