Ruby Pearl Hiatt, married James Thomas Casey and moved to California where many of her family, aunts and uncles, had moved years before. He worked as a fireman but caught TB and died. Ruby met Glenn during the war and they were married in San Francisco. She had always thought San Francisco was a beautiful place and loved the ocean.
As a family we would move around a lot, at first following the War they had to find work and often that was working in the farm fields. Glenn also worked in mines in Colorado and Southern Utah. He was an electrician and that was his main occupation and as he got work thru the unions he went to California to work on the Central California water project, living in Oroville, Calif. where he also had a brother, Floyd and his family as well as other brothers who tried to stay together as much as possible.
Ruby was always so positive, believed the world was a wonderful place, always believed in the goodness of mankind and that people were mostly good. Ruby had been born into a Christian home but the family was not practicing a particular religion, but leaned to the Baptist. Her mother's family were Pennsylvania Dutch, or German, very staunch and a strong mind and body. There were always grandparents she grew up with, they loved her and set wonderful examples, she talked of them often. When she married James Casey she became Catholic but after his death and the marriage to Glenn she withdrew from the religion, mostly because as she had a set of twins, one died, Fred, just a few days old. The baby was not baptized and she was told she could not bury her child in the Catholic Cemetery and that the baby could never enter Heaven, only had to continue in limbo. When the LDS missionaries visited us in Omaha, NE in 1956, she was very excited by them. We were taught by the missionaries and our family joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She loved the Church and was always active and involved. She had been a Primary Teacher, taught Cub Scouts, etc., she was loved by everyone and highly respected by all.
Ruby started working on her genealogy as far back as I can remember, always loved the family stories and wanted to know her heritage. She had so many stories she had heard from her grandmothers, so she worked to account for as much as she could until she turned the work over to me, Larry Anderson, about 1982.
Ruby's greatest desire was to have her family together, to love each other and stay close as a family. She was always close to her brothers and sisters and always spoke so highly of all of them. She had a few close friends she knew all their lives until the day they died. She also loved to cook and made the best jams and jellies, canned or bottled fruit, etc. We always had all we could eat of those items as we grew up. She wanted her house clean and could not stand a mess, always clean and decorated so nicely. Family pictures were her favorite and she worked for years to put all her photos together of her family. She loved her grandchildren and was so happy to see them, always had a song for them. I wish I could remember all of it, but the only parts I can recall was for the children:
"The little turned up nose, the Rosy Cheeks that glow, that little babe of mine." All my kids loved to have her sing to them and would fight over who got to sleep with grandma. It was our honor to have my children with her to the day she died and to have her see them one last time and tell them how she loved them. That one last touch and hug they will always remember.
Her last months were spent living with me, Larry Anderson, in Chubbuck, (Pocatello), Idaho. She had gone to visit Duane for a few months in Arizonia but needed more constant companionship so she was coming back to be with me when she suffered clotting and lack of oxygen during the trip here. She was so sick by the time she got here that I had to immediately take her to the hospital where she struggled for 5 days before dying in the Pocatello Regional Hospital. I had prayed at least to give me one more day with her, I did get that day as she was able to go off all support for a day and spoke to us, shared her love and wishes and was able to see and love the children one more time. She went suddenly just after I had taken the children home and had thought she was doing so well we could take her home again.
Our family was able to participate in her preparations, Ruth helped to dress her in her lovely Temple garments, Laura was able to help put the final make up on her face and bruises and to be with her in such a special way. There was a very sweet spirit in her presence to the moment we laid her body to rest. She was flown to Omaha, NE where the rest of the family and friends were able to attend her funeral and burial next to my father.(From a letter, 10 March 1988) She sent me the obituary of our cousin, Rex Darst. (We were living in Fruitland, UT near Duchesne)
Dear Larry, Tammy, Children,

Love & miss all of you - God Bless, MomMom was so loving, tried to always remember every grandkid and birthdate, shared everything and loved to spend time with Jacob and Larry. Her and Aunt Dorothy (Harold Walker's sister) use to take them to McDonalds every chance they had, loved the kids and they always were thrilled to be with them. She put all her efforts to her church, went to the Temple every chance she got, Mom and dad started the families genealogy back in Oroville and were the earlier ones to get the records started. Always loved all her family and never said anything bad of any of her siblings or families. Wanted us to always get along, love and stay in Church.
RUBY PEARL HIATT "CASEY" "ANDERSON"
1. Ruby Pearl Hiatt Casey Anderson, 88, passed away Thursday, February 26, 2004 at Portneuf Medical Center Hospital. She was born in Omaha, Nebraska to Fred Osten and Goldie Mae Teeter Hiatt on June 24, 1915.
Ruby was raised and educated in Omaha. She was very athletic person from an athletic family; she excelled in the track events, winning blue ribbons in hurdles and high jump. Her father was hired by the Omaha Police Department to play baseball on the semi-pro baseball team at that time as a pitcher. He with his brother were motorcycle officers. His brother "Pert" was the first motorcycle mounted officer in South Omaha.
At the age of 22 she moved to San Francisco after marrying her first husband in Omaha, NE. After he died of TB she married Glenn Anderson and after WWII she moved with her husband and family many times as they worked in harvest fields and later engaged in various mining opportunities in their earlier years. Most notably his career was as an electrician during WWII and with the Merchant Marines. Later he worked for several years on the Northern California Water Project out of Oroville, Calif. that provided water and electricity to much of California.
Ruby's forefathers were among the very first families to migrate to America and colonize much of America as we now know it. Her grandfathers left Virginia and the Carolinas with Boone to Kentucky in 1782 and then on to now Missouri, settling now St. Joe by 1808 and Liberty, Clay County, Missouri by 1818. Her great-great grandfather, John Hiatt along with his brothers and families from Missouri were with the Sutter’s in California and discovered gold. They returned to their homes in Sidney, Iowa and Northern Missouri to buy lands and plantations, Uncle Little Page Hiatt set up shop in Brownsville, NE, with the first grist mill and motel. Later in 1859 these families returned for the Colorado Gold Rush and settled outside Denver calling their place for luck, Golden. Later they moved into the mountains where they settled in a valley named for the first child born there, now Estes Park, Colorado. Her great grandfather, David Hiatt, assisted building the first house in South Omaha and her grandfather, Moses Hiatt, with cousins formed the J. L. Hiatt Realty Company. She started her family history and genealogy to describe her ancestors and their pioneering heritage which has grown to be one of the most extensive genealogies of America. She could claim her position in any of the prestigious historical societies in America.
Ruby married James Casey and they were blessed with 3 children, James, Delores (Susie), and Thomas, before he passed away of tuberculosis. She then married Glenn Woodrow Anderson, a father of 3 children, Phyllis, Verna, and Vernon, from a previous marriage. They were blessed with 7 children of their own, Joyce and Fred (twins), Dale, Larry, Duane, Dennis and Bruce. They later adopted Shane, a granddaughter, and raised her as their daughter.
She was a waitress at various restaurants, worked at Campbell’s Soup and owned “Home Café” in Omaha, Nebraska.
Ruby lived in Omaha about 35 years before moving to ID. She was loved and watched over by her children and grandchildren until June 2003 when she moved to be with her son, Larry (Ruth) and their family to Chubbuck, ID. She enjoyed her final days with her sons, Duane, Dale and Larry and their families.
Ruby was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, joining that church in 1958. She held positions in Relief Society and Primary where she loved to teach the young children. She particularly enjoyed going to the temple. Ruby enjoyed doing genealogy, cooking and canning Her main task and joy in life was raising and spending time with her family especially her grandchildren. The family never needed to purchase preserves, jellies and jams, candy, etc. and the table was always full of her work. She also loved music, especially a violin which her uncles played so well. Ruby was a very positive person and always saw the best in everything and everyone.
She is survived by her children: James (Lorraine) Casey, Punta Gorda, Florida; Delores “Susie” (Charles) Kocourek, Omaha, NE, Thomas (Kathy) Casey, Omaha, NE, Phyllis Anderson, Nebraska City, NE; Vernon (Peggy) Anderson, Oroville, CA; Joyce (Greg) Ortman, St. Louis, MO; Dale Anderson, Pocatello, ID; Larry (Ruth) Anderson, Chubbuck, ID; Duane (Sandy) Anderson, Lake Havasu, AZ; Dennis (Jenny) Anderson, Papillion, NE; Bruce Anderson, Omaha, NE; Shane Murcek (Anthony), Lake Havasu, AZ; siblings: Loris (Art-deceased) Klaushie, Lawrence “Sonny” (Mary Ellen) Hiatt, Dareen (Frank-deceased) Murcek, all of Omaha, NE, 42 grandchildren, 43 great grandchildren, and 2 great-great grandchildren.

Fred work at the Packing House until Ruby was 9 years old. Then he stated working on the Police force in Omaha.
1914 Omaha City Dir. lists Fred O. Hiatt, living at 2711 Monroe as lab Armour & Co., in 1916 he was a clerk. Living with mother, Ida A., Luther and Sadie all at 2711 Monroe St.
Fred was an excellent athelete in his younger years, he loved baseball and wanted his boys and grandchildren to be baseball players. He was also good in track and field events. He also ran for the Omaha Police force. While he worked for the packing house he played on their team until drafted to be a policeman and play for them 1915-1927. He also played left fielder for Nebraska Tire and Rubber Co.
From our personal family information. Fred served on the South Omaha police department, and was on it's track team. He was very athletic, and was semi-pro baseball. He loved his sports, and I often remember sitting with him watching the sports on T.V. He loved his baseball and beer. One of the best things I can remember as a very small child was when he took me to Rosenblat Stadium in Omaha to see the Omaha Royals play ball.
He also loved hunting and fishing. He made regular trips to Minn. with his friends to fish. He always had a pail of fish, or a bunch of rabbits.
For my children, little things that remind me of him, is how he use to take out his teeth and scare the daylights out of us, that tickled him some.
One story I recall is that when he was very young, he was with his grandmother in Iowa, Mt. Zion, NE of Sidney, she took him to a revival meeting and there she "Got the Spirit". She jumped onto a chair and fell and hurt herself, this scarred Grandpa so much that he vowed he would never go to church again, and as far as I know, he kept that vow, although he was a goodName: Fred Hiatt

Goldie born 1894 on a farm in Ill. Came to Omaha, Neb in 1904. She was 10 years old. Went to Fall City by train then up to Omaha. Her dad and brother Oliver, George and Leon went by covered wagon to Ill. then sent for her mother, Goldie, June and Orrin, Elvin. Goldie graduated from 8th grade at Ashley Park School. Worked during vacations first at Skinners Mac. for $4.00 a week packed macaroni in box. Second place at Cudley's packing plant, put lids on cans 8 cents per hour. When she graduated whe went to the tin shop at a packing house for 10 cents a hour. She later ran a machine for 12 1/2 cent an hour. Met and married Fred Hiatt when she was 19 years old.
Note written by Ruby Anderson in 1990. Mom, born in Dixon, Ill came to Neb. when she was about 4 on a train with her mom and younger kids. Her Dad and 4 brothers went in a covered wagon. Married to Fred Hiatt when she was 20.
Before marriage graduated from Ashland Park 8th grade, worked at Cadalrys Packing for 10 cents a hour. Best wife and mother loved all her family and always kept in touch with her brothers and sister and dad's brothers and sisters. And always wrote to any out of town. Also her neices and nephews, and cousins. We'll loose touch without her. Had 6 children and always lived in Omaha from the time I was very young I thought she was perfect and never changed my mind.
Another note written for Grandma Goldie by her dau. Ruby:
I am writing for Mom, her hands are numb. They always had a small tree at Christmas. The only decarations were
cranberries and pop-corn. They would string the pop corn and berries and had a lot of fun as a family, sitting around together and doing it.
They got few presents, in fact, she can't remember any except for one year when when she was very young when her cousin, Ben Tilton gave her a China Doll. (Grandma Teeter's Sisters son)
There were 9 children: Oliver, George, Leon, Goldie, Orin, June, Lawrence, Elvin and Maude.From another note by Ruby: My Mom was always slim, never mentioned diet, she always loved her candy, especially licorise, it seems to run in the family. When I was 13, 14 and 15 I thought she was old but now I see a slim, neat lady who was 33 - 34 years old, no gray hair, she had very nice hair. I use to set it from the time I was 11 or 12.
At one time while I (Larry Anderson) was talking with her about family she told me a story about Ben Tilton. I am not sure how the Tilton's fit in, but there was a solid and close connection to them. She said that Ben Tilton had a girl friend that was pregnant when he went into the Civil War. He stayed with Grandma Teeter when they moved to Omaha.
He went to work on a farm in Iowa. He & a friend got drunk and his friend froze to death. He got frost bite & had his toes cut off.
The police thought he killed his friend and he was sent to the Penn. Grandma and Grandpa Teeter got him out. He took off again into Iowa and was never heard from again. Goldie Teeter Hiatt, she also said that he was her dads sisters boy, that is Jacob Teeter's sister Mary.? Mary was married to Isaac Jones? Was she married twice, or was it another sister? d/o Jacob Martin Teeter & Laura Mae Burger. SENT FROM RUBY ANDERSONFrom a post card my grandmother gave me, Larry Anderson, she had several post cards of her Grandmother Wolfkill, from various cousins, aunts, etc. Here is one she sent to her grandmother, it has a Santa, traditional look to hips, has a gold wide belt, the red with white trim familiar dress, red had and a Christmas tree over the left shoulder, a box with a horn (bugle?) under his right arm. Says; May Every Joy, Glaaden your heart This gestive Day!
Dear Grandma
Well how are you come down soon wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year, Goldie addressed simply Grandma (My grandmother Goldie always spoke so kindly and loveingly of her grandma, this grandma must have really been so special to all the kids who always fondly refer to as Grandma, even as she is an Aunt, etc.) This card was written when Grandma Goldie was appently still quite young judging by the hand writting. Larry Anderson
This child was born and lived a short while, was what they called a "Blue Baby." Grandma and mom said that when she died they cleaned and dressed her to prepare her for burial in the bathroom, the house at 1527 Monroe St., Omaha, NE. Grandpa, Pert and some family helped but Grandma was so sick she did not. Baby Goldie is registered as being buried in the old cemetery at the end of Harrison St. in old town ALBRIGHT, now just a part of the community with little left to say was any town. I do remember several stores and a couple of bars when I was a kid and there are still a few buildings there that are being used as either a house or apartment, etc. There is no stone for baby Goldie, also is buried next to Pert's daughter that also died about the same time and layed next to each other, neither having a stone but I did find her in a registry that someone had one memorial day as we visited and showed us where she was buried. (about 1992, David Vermuelin and myself, Larry Anderson, were looking for these babies. David's mom Ann Hiatt Vermuelin told us where to look. )
