Hugh
Nov 12, 1835-Oct 11, 1903
Mr. Bateman has during his active life been a planter and he
is recognized as one of the most successful ones in this part of the parish. His plantation consists of 700 acres, about 100 acres of which is in a high state of cultivation. In view of the fact that he began life for himself at the age of twenty-one with no capital whatever, and
by close application to business and the exercise of those faculties which make a successful man, he has accumulated a considerable property and is certainly entitled to rank among the self-made men of this part of the state. He has ever been a liberal supporter and contributor to
churches, schools and other enterprises tending to the public good and to the progress and development of his community, parish and state. He has been a member of the board of supervisors for two terms, and has
otherwise done his full share toward the conduct of public affairs. He and his family are members of the Baptist church, and he is a Mason.
