Hi Connie,

My name is Donna Claiborne. My father is a Batch. He was born in Monaghela, PA.and lived on Coal Street. His name is Kenneth Batch. He is 81 years old. His father's name was Harry. His Mom was Ethel. Her maiden name was Hilton. She had a lot of sisters. My Dad had three brothers and a sister.
One is a Priest in California- Tom. Howard is a WWII vet now living in Ohio- war injury, his sister died before he was born, and his last brother Joe died in the early nineties. My father grew up in Pittsburgh. We used to visit before my grandmother died. I haven't been back since the 60's. I have seven brothers and sisters.

I'm sure we are probably related because we have relatives in Elizabeth, PA too. I'd love to keep in touch and find out more about the family. My father hasn't talked to relatives in years. I'm sure we are related to Charlie Batch. He seems to hate the fact that he is a Batch. We met him briefly after an Eagles game and I found him to be really rude!!! He says he has no interest in that part of his family. Oh well, that's his loss, I think we are rather interesting.

My home e-mail address is d.claiborne@worldnet.att.net.
Hope to hear from you.

Donna
