The insurance business which he is disposing of will be- come a part of the Hatch company November 1st, and Milton Jones, a brother of Louie S, Jones, who has been handling the business, will become an officer and stockholder in the Hatch company. s 1 Is Old Firm With the acquisition of the Jones insurance business, the Hatch company, already one of the largest firms in the state, becomes a still larger firm. It was originally founded in 1872 b:" A. P. Collins, who was later a president of the New Britain National bank. The firm was taken over by A. G. Butler and William L. Hatch in 1888. Ten years later, Mr. Hatch took over the whole firm and moved to his present quarters in 1907. In 1910, Harold W. Hatch became a member of the firm and in 1912, it was incorporated. Since then, it has absorbed sev- eral other insurance agencies in the city, among them the D. A. Parsons firm in 1916, the Home Banking & Realty company in 1923, the O'Connor company in 1927, and now the Jones agency. Officers of Company W. L. Hatch is president of the firm; Harry P. 0'Connor, Harry Hancock, Norman Morrill and H. W. Hatch are vice presidents; H. W. Hatch is treasurer and Harry Hancock is secretary; Ruth A. Grocock is assistant secretary and the firm employs about twenty individuals. The Jones agency was formed in 1925 when Louie Jones took over the H. Dayton Humphrey business and in December, 1926, the business of James J. Watson and then later the firm of Parker & Parker. Plans to Build Mr. Hatch said today that with the acquisition of Jones Agency, the necessity has become apparent for the need of more room and work will be probably started shortly, on the construction of the new building of the company on Washing- ton street, on t_he site purchased some time ago, adjoining the Elks club building. The cost of the structure for which plans have already been drawn, including the land, will be in the neighborhood of $100,000.
