Premise

[edit]

This filmed comedy series was among CBC Television's first colour productions. It was set in the 1830s and portrayed the life of the Hatch family members who were settlers in what is now southern Ontario. Patriarch Noah Hatch (Robert Christie) owned a mill and a general store in addition to his duties as his community's judge. His family includes wife Maggie (Cosette Lee) with children Saul (Marc Strange) and Silence (Sylvia Feigel).[1]

Hatch's Mill was produced as a Canadian Centennial project. It was not renewed beyond its 10-episode run.[2]
