• Photos		John Ezekiel "Zeke" Hatcher
  		John Ezekiel "Zeke" and Sarah Jane (nee Hooper) Hatcher Probably taken in the summer of 1911 when the couple moved from Liberty County to Bee County, Texas, because of Zeke's health. He suffered from "paralysis," and the effects of a stroke are evident in this photo. He died November 5 as the result of a fall and was buried there. Sarah moved back to Liberty County to live with their children until her death in 1927.
