Elizabeth Young Hatfield, was born in Campbell Co., Tennessee, October 6,
1817 and died in Greene County, Indiana September 14, 1869. He was an

He could not read or write but he memorized scripture from hearing it
read to him. He went to Indiana from Tennessee along with his parents
and thier family in 1831 at the age of 14 years. Just four years later
at the age of eighteen he was married to Milly Richardson in Monroe
County, Indiana, November 26, 1835. Milly was sixteen at the time of
their marriage. After their marriage they lived on a farm near
Cincinnatti, Green County, Indiana where he farmed and where they raised
their family of fourteen children, four boys, and ten girls. THere were
three sets of twins included in the fourteen children. All fourteen
children lived to be married and all were living after their parents were
deceased. The youngest one to die was Sally Ann, twin of Cynthia Jane,
and she died August 5, 1879 in the State of Texas. The last one of the
children to die was Amanda, twin of Elizabeth, and she died in Greene
County, Indiana June 27, 1943 at the age of 88 years.
Mordica Ale Hatfield died of Typhoid Fever. He had red (auburn) kinky
hair which he tried to grease down. He was a Primitive Baptist Minister
for 25 years as well as a farmer. He and his wife Millie raised all 14 of
their children. Mordica was medium short, muscular and was gentle with
his wife and children. Although he was a minister for 25 years, he could
not read or write. He was noted for his philosophy, preaching and
memorization of great portions of scripture.
The Flynn Cemetery is ocated about four miles north of Owensburg, Indiana
and about two miles south of Cincinnati, Indiana and close to the farm on
which Mordica and Milly lived. They died less than four years apart and
both are buried in the Flynn Cemetery. They have a good headstone with
