In March 1863, John Sr. lost his son, Jackson, whose Will was found in Will bk #4 (1860-68) p. 116. It was written Jan 17, 1863, and brought to court for probate March 10, 1863 by attorneys for John Hiett. He left everything to his father John Hiett and his brother John Hiett. his residence was Huntington Township. He seems not to have had a family of his own as he does not leave anything to a widow or children. Jackson died just two months after T.W. Hiett; his will was written about the time of TW's death and seems to anticipate his own; could they have shared a contagious disease?

Joseph Whinery was one of the first native born citizens of Clinton Co., Ohio. He was a pupil of Robert Way, a famous school teacher who occupied a small hut to which a few scholars walked through the woods. The light in the schoolhouse came through greased paper windows. He gave his father his time until he was 23 years old. When he was seventeen, in 1827, he drove cattle to Philadelphia, Penn. and the trip took 11 weeks. He went on foot except swimming a horse across the Ohio River at Wheeling, W. Va.
