June 27, 20168 yr Everything I've read about Roger and Willie (Will) Hatcher said that they were brothers, and also cousins of Charley Hatcher (Edwin Starr). Roger and Willie Moved to Detroit at young ages, and recorded there. They both also recorded for Excello, in Nashville. I wonder if Mississippi Delta Blues Man, Willie Hatcher was Roger and Willie's father. They were born in Birmingham, Alabama.
