In 1904 Fred Hatch purchased the Martin Manufacturing Company (The Buckle Factory) and operated it as the Hatch Manufacturing Co. until 1929. Mr. Hatch was a great sportsman, playing cricket, lacrosse, baseball and track and field. He was a Master of Composite Lodge in 1900. In 1900 Mr. Hatch was one of the founders of Heydenshore Park at Port Whitby as a summer resort, and had a cottage there. He spent many years servicing and developing the park.
