Larry I am a descendant of Mary Hiatt b. 20 Aug 1784 and David Gard b. 18 Apr 1782 both of Hampshire County, Virginia. I am trying to locate PDF copies of William Perry Johnson's Hiatt-Hiett Genealogy and I understand that you have copies. I would love to buy each volume if you would be willing to share. Thanks Howard N Camp Lincoln, Nebraska hncamp@gmail.com
In all of us there is a hunger, marrow deep, to know our heritage - to know who we are and where we came from. Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness. -- Alex Haley Let your heritage not be lost, but...gather...the hidden and preserve it for thy children....Bequeath it as a memory, treasure and blessing. -- Christian Metz> (1846) "Family history gives individuals a sense of heritage and a sense of responsibility in carrying out a legacy their ancestors began."-U.S. Senate Resolution "How will our children know who they are if they don't know where they come from."-John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath “The minds of men are naturally moved to know something of their progenitors.” a circular printed in 1846 by the New England Historical and Genealogical Society.

On the day following their marriage, they started, along with James Hiett and family, for the Ohio river, overland, then near 300 miles away. They crossed the Allegheny Mountains with their four horse wagon and team. Arriving at Vienna about the last of April of the same year, six miles above Parkersburg on the Ohio River, Virginia side, where James Hiett had previously been and purchased a farm of over 300 acres, upon which was a large improvement, some 200 acres of land cleared, two frame dwelling houses and two large barns. This property, until a few years ago, remained in the Hiett family.
"James Hiett had 10 children (not counting three who died in infancy -- editor.) Mary, Timothy and Amy lived in Palmer twp., Washington Co., Ohio.

James Hiett wrote his will 12 Jun 1872 and a codicil to the will 19 Jun 1874. The will was proved 29 Dec 1879. One-Half acre of land reserved for family graveyard.
In History of O'Brien County, Iowa. From its Organization to the Present Time, by D.A.W. Perkisn, Brown and Sanger, Printers, Sioux Falls, S.Dak. 1897, we find the following paragraph under a section on Cyclone Jun 1882.
On Section 16 in Grant Township James Hiatt had nearly completed a dwelling house for his family, which was completely demolished. They were living in a tent, and when the storm struck them, they were taken up in the air, and carried some distance, but strange to say not one of them were seriously injured.
