JOSEPH EATON HATCH was born on 25 June 1818 in Wells, Maine [Wells VR, pg 223], the son of James and Grace (Eaton) Hatch. He died in Virginia on 2 Oct 1864, from wounds received during the Battle of Peeble's Farm a few days prior.
He married on 3 Oct 1859 in Wells [Wells VR, pg 363] to ANGELINE (GETCHELL) PERKINS, former wife of Paul Perkins. She was born on 21 Nov 1824 [grave] and died in Wells, Maine on 16 Apr 1906 [grave]. She is buried in Ocean View Cemetery, Wells, Maine.
A year after his service ended with the 27th Maine, Joseph reenlisted as a substitute for Gilbert Patten of Bath, Maine, mustered in on 23 Aug 1864 at Lewiston, Maine, to serve for three years. Only a month later, during the Battle of Peeble's Farm on 30 Sept 1864, he was mortally wounded by a gun shot wound to the neck. Removed to the 5th Corps Hospital near Weldon Railroad, VA, he died there on 2 Oct 1864.
Joseph and Angeline perhaps only had one child together:
I. MARSHALL N HATCH, b. 1861; d. 1862.
