There are problems with some of the frequently listed children of Jacob 
and Rebecca Crabtree Hatfield.
  
1. Vandalia Hatfield b. 1874 
2. Nancy Hatfield b. 1875 
3. Laura Hatfield b. 1876  d. 1878 
4. Orrey Hatfield b. 1879 
5. John Melvin Hatfield b. 1880  d. 1937 
6. Harrison Hatfield b. 1880 
7. Chloe Ann Hatfield  b. Sep 1883 KY
8. Arson Hatfield b. Aug 1885 KY d. 1950 
9. Hafford Hatfield  b. Feb 1889 KY d. 1968 
10. William Sidney Hatfield  b. May 1891 Pike Co., KY d. 1921 
11. Martha Alice Hatfield b. Sep 1893 KY d. 1969 
12. Freeland Hatfield b. Jul 1896 
13. Ura Hatfield 
14. Destry Hatfield 
15. Henry Hatfield 
16. Ireland Hatfield 
  
I have not, thus far, found good evidence for Vandalia.  She is said to 
have been born in 1874 but does not show on the 1880 census with Jacob 
and Rebecca.
  
Nancy, Orrey and John Melvin do show up on the 1880 census, so there is a 
good likelihood that they fit.
  
Laura does not show on the 1880 census, but she is said to have died in 
1878, so it would be reasonable for her to be missing.  Harrison does not 
show on the 1880, but it is said that he was born that year and it is 
possible that he might have been gone by 1900 so, I have nothing 
definitive to include or not include him.
  
We know that Chloe Ann, Arson (Orrison), Hafford (Herriford), Wm Sidney, 
Martha Alice, and Freeland show up in 1900 with Jacob and Rebecca. 
  
Ura, Destry, Henry, and Ireland are the most disturbing.  I do not see 
evidence for them and after 1910 Jacob is 68 years and the only other gap 
that might "hide" four children is between 1880 and 1900, but it is 
unlikely that four children could be born in that period and none show up 
in 1900, especially since there are other children born during that 
period who do show up on the 1900 census.
  
Consequently I believe that there were 11-13 children, not the 16 who are 
frequently seen.
