The proposed relationship of James Fulton Hatcher as the father of
Lou Ann Hatcher,
William Christopher Hatcher,
Jamesina Ima Hatcher,
Robert E. Lee Hatcher,
Elijah Martin Hatcher and
Francis Marion Hatcher is supported by DNA evidence indicating shared ancestry within the family lines.
Specifically, DNA evidence confirms a 3rd cousin relationship between EHW (a descendant of the William Christopher Hatcher ancestral line) and WJW (a descendant of the Lou Ann Hatcher ancestral line) with 131.80 cM of shared DNA across 6 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between ST (a descendant of the Jamesina Ima Hatcher ancestral line) and WJW (a descendant of the Lou Ann Hatcher ancestral line) with 183.10 cM of shared DNA across 9 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 3rd cousin relationship between JDH (a descendant of the Robert E. Lee Hatcher ancestral line) and WJW (a descendant of the Lou Ann Hatcher ancestral line) with 165.10 cM of shared DNA across 9 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between MD (a descendant of the Elijah Martin Hatcher ancestral line) and WJW (a descendant of the Lou Ann Hatcher ancestral line) with 189.10 cM of shared DNA across 7 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 3rd cousin relationship between AH (a descendant of the Francis Marion Hatcher ancestral line) and WJW (a descendant of the Lou Ann Hatcher ancestral line) with 85.90 cM of shared DNA across 3 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between EHW (a descendant of the William Christopher Hatcher ancestral line) and EAT (a descendant of the Jamesina Ima Hatcher ancestral line) with 197.40 cM of shared DNA across 6 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between EHW (a descendant of the William Christopher Hatcher ancestral line) and JSHM (a descendant of the Elijah Martin Hatcher ancestral line) with 245.90 cM of shared DNA across 11 HIR segments.
It also confirms a 2nd cousin, once removed relationship between DHT (a descendant of the Jamesina Ima Hatcher ancestral line) and KH (a descendant of the Robert E. Lee Hatcher ancestral line) with 254.30 cM of shared DNA across 8 HIR segments.
These matches are consistent with their placement within these shared ancestral branches.
Further support for shared ancestry within the Lou Ann Hatcher, William Christopher Hatcher, Jamesina Ima Hatcher, Robert E. Lee Hatcher, Elijah Martin Hatcher and Francis Marion Hatcher lines is provided by an additional 110 DNA confirmed relationships among other tested descendants tracing back to these lines.
