James Tobias Hatfield (1865-1938), a native of Lincoln, Illinois, was an authority in the bituminous coal mining and distribution industries. He founded the Hatfield Coal Company and served as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Hatfield-Campbell's Creek Coal Company. Personally and professionally, Hatfield had ties to the greater Cincinnati area: his family summered in Carrollton, Kentucky, and Hatfield Coal owned a coal silo along the Ohio River near Covington, with storage capacity for 200,000 tons of coal. Several of Hatfield's children, including Virginia Thorpe Hatfield, permanently relocated to Cincinnati as adults.
