                     Hatfield Cemetery 

Going from Middlesboro, go across 
Fonde Mountain this will be on Hwy 90.  Turn left 
onto ROCK CREEK ROAD, Go about two miles and you 
should come to the junction of Black Diamond and Rock 
Creek Ridge Road, turn right and stay on ROCK CREEK 
RIDGE.  Go about two miles and you should come to 
Rock Creek United Baptist Church.  It is on the left 
and the Gibson graveyard is there.  Stay on the lower 
side and will cross railroad.  Keep going about three 
miles, you will come to a large strip pit keep to 
lower side will see bunch of pines and go past an oil 
well on the right. side of the road. Then you should 
come to a level like place in the road right before 
the road starts going downhill again you should see 
on your left what would appear to be an old logging 
road.   Stop and walk out through it just a bit, if 
you watch closely you will see a small like trail on 
the right and go up it a little ways and you should 
see a sign on a tree pointing down hill that is 
wooden with white letters GRV go down by the tree and 
look carefully and you will find the graves.  
Unfortunately time has not been good to them and 
Moses Hatfield grave is on the lower side marked by a 
stone that is rounded on sides higher in center.  You 
have to get down and use fingers to make out the 
name.  Sterling Hatfield grave is the only one there 
that is really readable and not that good.  Henry 
Hatfield and Sallie Hatfield are buried there as well 
as a Mulkey Davis.  I haven't yet figured out who 
Starling Hatfield is, however one Henry Hatfield b. 
abt 1841 son of Moses Hatfield married Sarah Sallie 
Davis b. 1845 and they had a son Sterling Hatfield 
who was listed as twelve years old in the Claiborne 
County  census of 1880 .  The age of this Henry does 
not work out to be the father of Starling.  Moses son 
Thomas has a son Henry born  abt. 1862 or 1863 per 
census of 1880. However this does not appear to be 
the son of Thomas either because he is still living  
at the time of the 1900 census. 

Here is the grave information as I have it.
