Notes:

Some Highlights from the Life of JOHN HATFIELD -

John Hatfield was born in Belper, Derbyhire, England on the 14th of November 1818. He wasthe 4th child of 7 children born to Jacob Hatfield and Elizabeth Street. His mother was Elizabeth Street christened 10 March 1789 and married 8 October 1816.

His father was a land owner and John's boyhood was well spent in helping his father raise various fruits and vegetables. He used the knowledge and experience gained through these when he came to Utah, where he raised a lovely orchard of his own and grew grain on ten acres of land.

Like many English people, John's education was limited. It has always been an English tradition that its people learn a trade of some sort to help make their own livelihood. As he became of age, John learned many trades. Pottery making, glass blowing and cooking were his chief trades. In pottery, he created his own designs. John became an expert glass blower, making many beautiful ornamental pieces with his clever skill of arrangements. He was also an expert cook, specializing in fruit cake, mincemeat, and candy, which he sold from his privately owned shop. His many customers and friends came from near and far to purchase these fine goods. It has been said he could make a perfect star with the ingredients used in stick candy.

Recipe for John's Mincemeat -

2 1/4 pounds round of beef

2 quarts chopped apples

1 /2 pint chopped suet

1 1/2 pints raisins

1 pint currants

1 quart sugar, brown
1/2 pint molasses

3 pints wine

4 tablespoonfuls cinnamon

2 tablespoonfuls salt

1 tablespoonful allspice

1 tablespoonful mace

1 teaspoonful cloves

4 nutmegs, grated

4 lemons

3 pieces citron, chopped

Put the beef in a small stewpan and cover with boiling water. Cook three hours, having the water only bubble at one side of the stewpan. Take from the fire and let the meat cool in the water, with cover off the pan. When cold, remove the fat and gristle, and chop the meat rather fine. Put it in a large bowl with all the other ingredients, except the wine, and mix thoroughly. Now add the wine, and let the mixture stand in a cold place overnight. In the morning, turn the mincemeat into a porcelain kettle and heat slowly to the boiling point; then simmer gently for one hour. Put the mixture into stone jars and set away in a cold place; or it may be put in glass jars and sealed. When the pies are being made, I tumbler jelly or marmalade to 3 or 4 pies will be found a great improvement.

John was a fine athlete and a well known boxer, holding the championship in Belper and the surrounding counties. On one occasion, he carried his son William 14 miles on his back to a boxing bout. At the bout, disagreeing with the referee's decision, John jumped in the ring and said, "I've twenty sovereign in me pocket that I can lick the two of thee.

John, though a kindly man, was also a man of ?spirit, who would not permit people to impose upon him. Like all strong characters, he could be sharp of tongue when he deemed it necessary. Or it might be said, "It wasn't in John not to speak his mind or let any one have the better of his opinion of England.

He was strong, a champion fighter, and could jump his own height, but although, his circumstances were poor, he lead a contented life.

If he could get his hands on the top of a nine pole gate, he could swing himself over to the opposite side. His boys would fill a box with rocks and they could lift it to their waist, but John could lift it over his head.

John invented insulation for electric wiring, molding it from clay. The patent on this invention was not obtained ?immediately and some dishonest person claimed the rights to his invention. John was broken hearted over this incident and grieved about it because he knew he could have been a wealthy man, had he obtained this patent.

ANN KEATON

When John reached manhood, he was large of stature, weighing two hundred and fifty pounds . He was considered very attractive at the time of his marriage to Ann Keaton in England. (Date unknown). Temple Endowments and Sealings were performed on, the 12th of January, 1887, in the Logan Temple. Children born to them are as follows:

Dear Brother Lichfield:

Your letter of 16 March 1966 addressed to President Theodore M. Burton has been forwarded to this office for necessary action. You are informed that where you follow a line of sealing rather than a blood line, no specific instruction has been given by the Genealogical Society how to fix pedigree chart. Using your personal problem of Dorothy Sarah Jennison an example, we could suggest that on the pedigree chart in the space for her husband that you place the name of John Hatfield, then place an asterisk at the top of his name which would refer to a notation in the lower left hand corner of the pedigree chart. In the notation you need merely state that this is the fourth husband of Dorothy Sarah Jennison to whom she is sealed, but that he is not the actual father of the child shown on the pedigree chart.

If you also desire to follow the blood line, and as a result thereof to show extensions on that line, you could make a duplicate pedigree chart upon which the progenitor would appear in lieu of John Hatfield, but again here an asterisk would be placed and a notation made on the bottom of the sheet. Both pedigrees would then be identical except for the lineage of the two persons concerned and this could be adjusted by merely giving the extension a different number on your pedigrees.

The reason nothing specific has been set up as instruction here, is because there has been some concern about whether a sealing line is considered established efficiently to be a?first responsibility when such sealing occurred after the death of the individuals concerned. In your case the woman, Dorothy Sarah Jennison, made her decision in life, and for this reason there would be no, question relative to the line of sealing.

The above is offered as one suggested procedure, but if you or any of your ?people have a different preference they may place it in accordance with their desires as long as it is systematic and understandable.

It is a pleasure to be of assistance to you.
