A roof having slate attached by battens and hangers. The hangers have a short member and a long member. The long member has a hook on one end and the remaining end is adjacent to a first outward extending arm. The first outward extending arm is adjacent to a central connecting member. The central connecting member is adjacent a second outward extending arm. The second outward extending arm is adjacent to the short member. The first and second outward extending arms are removably secured to the battens. The slate roof is installed by positioning and attaching the battens to a roof deck. The hangers are then secured to the battens by squeezing the short member and long member together and inserting the first and second outward extending arms into the adjacent hanger holders on the batten.

What is claimed is: 1. A system for supporting roofing members on a roof structure, the system comprising: at least one batten having a plurality of hanger holders disposed along its length, each hanger holder comprising opposing openings formed through the at least one batten; and a plurality of hanger devices removably secured to the batten by opposing outward extending arms expanding within the opposing openings, the hanger devices operable to support roofing members; wherein the roofing members are slate members; and each slate member has a top edge and a bottom edge; and the bottom edge of each of the slate members is supported by one or more of said hanger devices; wherein a bottom portion of each of the hanger devices extends away from the roof to support the bottom edge of one of the slate members, and a top portion of each of the hanger devices securely engages the at least one batten. 2. A system according to claim 1, wherein the plurality of hanger holders comprise opposing raised openings for receiving the hanger devices. 3. A system according to claim 1, wherein the hanger devices are spring tempered. 4. A system according to claim 3, further comprising one or more slate liners, wherein each slate liner is positioned atop the hanger devices associated with a row of slate members, underlying the slate members of the row. 5. A system according to claim 4, wherein a bottom portion of each of the hanger devices extends away from the roof to support the bottom edge of one of the slate members and the slate liner, a top portion of each of the hanger devices securely engages the at least one batten, and a bottom edge of the slate liner is coincident with the bottom edge of the slate members. 6. A system according to claim 5, further comprising an underlayment positioned on the roof structure below the battens. 7. A system according to claim 5, further comprising a plurality of battens for accommodating a plurality of rows of slate members, wherein the slate members are operatively secured to the roof structure in overlapping rows, wherein the bottom portion of each of the hanger devices of one of the rows extends downward to partially overlap the slate members of the row immediately below. 8. A system device as in claim 7, wherein the slate liner of one of the rows completely underlies the slate members of the row, and wherein the upper edge of the slate liner extends up beyond the top edge of the slate members of the row. 9. A system for attaching slate members to a roof, the system comprising: at least one batten, the batten having a plurality of hanger holders disposed along its length, each hanger holder comprising opposing openings formed through the at least one batten; and a plurality of hangers removably secured to the at least one batten via the plurality of hanger holders, the hangers being spring tempered to permit positioning of the hangers along the length of the battens by opposing outward extending arms of the hangers expanding within the opposing openings; wherein each slate member has a top edge and a bottom edge, and wherein the bottom edge of each of the slate members is supported by one or more of said hangers; wherein a bottom portion of each of said hangers extends away from the roof to support the bottom edge of one of the slate members. 10. A system according to claim 9, wherein the expanding force of the opposing outward extending arms is sufficient for the hangers to resist lifting forces when attached to the at least one batten. 11. A system according to claim 10, further comprising one or more slate liners, wherein each of said slate liner is positioned atop the hangers associated with a row of said slate members, underlying the slate members of the row. 12. A system according to claim 11, wherein the slate liner and a top portion of each of said hangers securely engages the at least one batten, and the bottom edge of the slate liner is coincident with the bottom edge of the slate members. 13. A system according to claim 12, further comprising a plurality of battens for accommodating a plurality of rows of said slate members, wherein the slate members are attached to the roof in overlapping rows, wherein the bottom portion of each said hanger of one of the rows extends downward to partially overlap the slate members of the row immediately below. 14. A system according to claim 13, wherein the slate liner of one of the rows completely underlies the slate members of the row, and wherein the upper edge of the slate liner extends up beyond the top edge of the slate members of the row. 15. A method for disposing roofing members on a roof structure, comprising: disposing a plurality of battens along a roof structure, the battens having a plurality of hanger holders associated therewith and disposed along its length, each hanger holder comprising opposing openings formed through the at least one batten; providing a plurality of hangers each comprising opposing outward extending arms connected by a central member; compressing a portion of each hanger to force outward extending arms towards each other; and disposing the outward extending arms into a pair of corresponding openings defined by the hanger holders, the hangers secured to the batten by opposing outward extending arms expanding within the opposing openings; wherein the hangers each comprise a lower hook portion, and wherein the method further comprises disposing liners atop the hangers such that a bottom edge of the liners abuts the hook portion of the hangers; disposing roofing members atop the liners such that a bottom edge of the roofing members abuts the hook portion of corresponding said hangers. 16. A method according to claim 15, further comprising compressing the portion of at least one of said hanger and removing the hanger from the corresponding pair of openings defined by the hanger holders. 17. A method according to claim 16, further comprising moving the hanger to another location along the batten, compressing the portion of the hanger and disposing the outward extending arms into another of a pair of corresponding openings defined by the hanger holders.
