The Beginnings: This section offers a short
summary of the original book; and adds any new information discovered after its
publication.
The Early Wars: Presents military and some pension records of Hatmakers, who
fought in wars before, during and after the American Revolution, but prior to 1861.
The Civil War: You will find full transcriptions of combined military and pension
records found at the National Archives. The flag used at the time of service identifies
the affiliation of each Soldier. All depositions, statements, declarations, and
correspondence are transcribed and spelled as written, although some punctuation has been
added to clarify and simplify the reading process. We have purposely made very few side
notes; we felt it important that each reader should be allowed to draw his or her own
conclusions without the transcribers bias.
War With Spain: This section deals with the combined military and pension records
of Soldiers, who served during the Spanish-American War, the Philippine Insurrection, and
of those who served after the war but before World War One.
The Great War: Features fully transcribed World War One Draft Registrations of
Hatmaker registrants in counties of several states.
The Tennessee Valley Authority:
1. The Grave removal transcriptions give a wrenching account of how, when and where
T.V.A.
removed the remains of our ancestors. In some cases, the detail is so great that the
actual times of disinterment and re-interment are recorded.
2. The University of Tennessee Family Survey paints a picture of how our ancestors lived
during the 1930s. What they ate, what they farmed, the type of land they owned or
rented, their financial status, which churches they chose to attend, where they traded,
and a myriad of other interesting and enlightening details.
A Chronology:
Presented here is a chronology of the most
important dates in the emigration and settling of our ancestors. It includes removal
dates, wills, land transactions and other important events.
