He was married to Martha Ann Estes a couple of years before leaving his native state, and to them were born 17 children. 15 of whom are still living, they are Mrs. William Roberts, Mrs. Ike Palmer and Col. J. Hiatt of Neb., Mrs. Sarah Bailey of Calif., Mrs. Hans Porter of South Africa, Mrs. W. B. Pickens, Mrs. Howard Mintle and Mrs. W. S. Jordan of Glenwood, Jesse M.

Joseph and Martha Ann Hiatt FamilyPage 7 Joseph Hiatt, Living with his father and the rest of the family in Peoria Co., Ill. where he was born on Dec. 27th 1826, and where he grew into young manhood. He was a Stalwart young man, 6 feet tall, and possessing all the attributes it takes to cope with the rigorous demands of a frontier life. He ranged widely, so it was destined that he should meet and fall in love with Martha Ann Estes, dau. of Joel Estes, (A first cousin), when the family was residing in Andrew Co., Mo., near Savannah, Mo. She was 15 and he was 23 but they wanted to be married at once. However, her parents demurred, holding that she was to young to take on the responsibities of a young bride, and that she should remain under the parental roof a bit longer. Never the less, the eager insistence of the young people finally prevailed and they were married March 19, 1849.
Two years later, we find all the Hiatts in Fremont Co., Iowa, in the early days when that state was young. Jesse took out a soldiers land grant and Joseph, his son, homesteaded on a track of land in sec. 14, just north of Sidney. There were only three other families in Sidney at the time, and the nearest other settlement was St. Joseph Mo. It was said that they knew every living person in that section of the country.
Here, he took his beautiful young bride and they started their lives carreer with hight ambition and heart full of couraage, plus a pleantiful supply of intestinal fortitude that it takes to pioneer a wild new world. They hewd their home form the forest for the first forty had to be cleared, and delved their living from the soil, and thier first dwelling was a rude log cabin. They labored side by side, gradually increasing their holdings with land bought at $1.25 and acre. They took time out for a brief interim when they went on a gold hunting expedition, for this was just about the time when the entire country was at white heat in the frenzied hope of scooping up gold, after it's discovery in Calif. in the year 1849. It was said of this, that they returned with 9 pounds of gold dust which they promply put into additional acres.
Their fortune smiled upon them and the fruits of hard labor were rewarded them, the rough hewn log hut was torn down and replaced with a comfortable two story dwelling. Here they dwelt and labored for 40 years, and they prospered. Here they produced and reared their unusually large family, who all grew to manhood and womanhood on the old home place.
They were pious and kind - very religiously inclined. They were members of the Baptist Church - "Hard Shelled Baptist", they called themselves. They were ever ready to extend a helping hand when anybody in need appealed to them for help. So their "Candle of Light" did much to brighten up their world.
Thus the curtain was drawn on the lives of two sterling individuals who were the founders of a remarkable family, the descendents of whom number in the hundreds.The descendents of Joseph Hiatt have long held reunions at Glenwood, Iowa and are still active as of this year, 1991. From an article:
SIDNEY (IA) ARGUS - HERALD, THURS., JUNE 5, 1969
Hiatt Family Held Reunion Sunday
The descendants of Joseph Hiatt and Marth (Estes) held the annual family dinner and meeting on Sunday in the courtesy room of the State Bank in Glenwood. This has been an annual affair since 1926.

Joe Hiatt's house, generally known as the Lamb House, burned to the ground with all its contents, except part of two beds and a trunk, Wednesday night of last week. It was one of the oldest houses around Sidney and was built in the old fashioned way, with fire places, brick basement and 14 rooms. There was $1200 insurance on the building, but the furniture was uninsured. The cause was by a defective flue.

A Remarkable Pioneer Family
The Family of Joseph and Martha Estes HiattSIDNEY, Ia., Jan, 28, - Special: THe picture of the family of Joseph and Martha Estes Hiatt of Sidney, Iowa, shows a family of fifteen children, all married and with homes of their own. Mr. and Mrs. Hiatt came to this region in pioneer days. They were the parents of seventeen children, all of whom are living except two.
Joseph Hiatt and Martha Ann Estes were married near Savanah, Mo., in 1849, the groom being 22 and the bride 16. They came to Gremont County,Iowa, in 1851, almost 20 years before the railroads. This region was then a veritable wilderness. Council Bluffs was a straggling Mormon village, fifty miles to the north, and the next nearest town was St. Joseph, Mo., 100 miles south. Up until the beginning of the civil war the Hiatt's knew every settler in Fremont County. They homesteaded a tract of land two miles north of the present town of Sidney. Here they carved their home from the forest and delved their living from the soil. Here they toiled together until fortune smiled upon them, and the rough log hut was torn down to make place for a commodious modern dwelling. On the old homestead they dwelt for forty years, and there they reared their unusually large family, now scattered far and wide, from Iowa to California, and one daughter is a missionary in South Africa. The devoted wife and noble mother has just passed away at the age of 74. The rugged pioneer father is still hale and vigorous in mind and body at the age of 81. Mrs. Hiatt was a sister of Hon. F. M. Estes, a former representative from this county whose son, J. S. Estes, made the race for congress in 1906 in opposision to Col. W. P. Hepburn.Names written on paper over each. Picture is too weak to make a copy, must hope that someone will provide an orginal copy for publishing in later books.

veritable wilderness, and homesteaded a tract of land two miles north of
Sidney. Here they started lifes career, hewing their home from the forest and delving their living from the soil of the rich uplands. Here they toiled and labored together unceasingly until fortune smiled upon them and the rough hewn log hut was torn away and replaced by a commodious two story modern dwelling.
On the old homestead they dwelt for forty years and here they reared their unusually large family, 17 children in all being born to them, 15 of whom are still living - Mrs. William Roberts, Mrs. Ike Palmer and Col.

The faithful and loving wife, the affectionate loving mother, the kind
hospitable and charitable friend and neighbor will be cherished in the memory
of many forever. Many awayfarer in the earlier days has partaken of her food
and found shelter from the inclement weather under her hospitable roof, and
many a sick neighbor has found relief and comfort in her kindness and words of cheer, her ministry and prayers. If kindly deeds were jewels, then her crown is beautifully bedecked with thousands of radiant gems.

HIATT - HIETT FAMILY HISTORY
VOLUME I 1951
By William Perry Johnson and the Hiatt Family Assocition of Utah
CHAPTER VIIISECOND GENERATION: WILLIAM HIATT
WILLIAM Hiatt, like his brother John, settled in Lancaster Co., Pa., prior to his removal to Virginia. The Land Office at Harrisburg, Pa., has record of William Hiett (sic). who received warrant number 32 for 200 acres on 26 January 1733, for lands to be situated on Beaver Creek. A survey was made and returned 232 acres. The survey is recorded in Survey Book K. p. 397. This tract was patented to John Eshleman in November 1809. This is also given in Penna. Archives, 3rd Series, XXIV, 423, Lancaster County Surveys, 1733-1896.
Around 1900 Kirk Brown, a genealogist (Quaker). of Baltimore, Maryland wrote to Jesse M. Hiatt: "I have lately purchased over 1000 papers formerly the property of Juhn Churchman, his son George, and his grandsons John, Miciah, and Joseph Churchman. The first John was the eminent Minister among Friends, he and two generations following him were noted surveyors, in Cecil, Chester, York, and Lancaster counties, many of the papers referred to are surveys and plats from original warrants issued for settling new lands.
"I find in the plat and survey made for William Philips, of Sadsbury Township, 1736, by John Churchman, for 112 acres of land and allowances of 6 % for roads, and etc., that William Hyatt owned adjoining land, mentioned on the draft of survey. This warrant was dated 12th of 9th month, and returned 12th of November 1736, to the Surveyor General office of Penna., Lancaster Co., being an adjoining county of Cecil." (R44). (Cecil County was in the State of Maryland while the other counties mentioned above were in Pennsylvania -- editor.)
The first documentary evidence of William Hiatt's being in Virginia is to be found on a loose sheet of Hopewell Mo. Mtg. Minutes which is preserved in Baltimore. It reads: "At our Monthly Meeting of Hopewell at Opeckon the fourth Day of the Second Month A.D. 1748: William Hiett and Alice Lowden appeared at this Meeting and declared their intentions of taking each other in marriage, this being the first time, this Meeting appoints James McGrew and Simeon Taylor to inquire into the said William Hiett's conversation and clearness in respect to marriage and what else may be needful to make report to the next Monthly Meeting accordingly.… At our Monthly Meeting at Hopewell at Opeckon 2nd Day of 3rd Month 1748: William Hiett and Alice Lowden appeared at this meeting and declared their intention of takingeach other in marriage, this being the second time, the friends appointed to inquire into the said William Hiett's conversation and clearness with others in respect their marriage, report that they find mothing to obstruct their proceeding. Therefore, this Meeting leaves them to their Liberty to consumate their said intentions when they see meet, and this Meeting appoints Lames McGrew and Simeon Taylor - to see that the marriage be decently accomplished and make report thereof to the next Monthly Meeting accordingly." (R34).
Many of the early deeds were evidently lost or destroyed, but the following have been preserved. Winchester, Frederick, Co., Va., Deed Book 2, p. 383: -24 October 1751 - William Hyatt to David Lewis - 184 acres - 5 shillings - on east side of Opeckon Creek - land granted by Lord Fairfax. Deed Book 4, p. 170, 1 September 1756 - David Lewis, of South Carolina, to William Hiatt, -- acres -- 5 shillings - both sides of Opeckan Creek 0 Turkey Spring. On 30 October 1754 the Rt. Honourable Thomas Lord Fairfax granetd land to William Hyatt of Frederick Co., Va, (Irving B. Hiett, Toledo, Ohio.) (R39).
Since some children of William Hiatt became of age in the 1750's and 1760's, it is apparent that these were by a first wife. The tradition that she was Mary Smith, a daughter or a sister of John Smith, pertains to William's mother rather than to his first wife. (See pages 32,33, this volume -- editor.) Therefore, the identity of the first wife of William Hiatt remains a mystery. At Opeckon (Opequon, or Hopewell). Friends Meeting on the 4th of 7th month 1748 William Hiett and Alice Lowden declare intentions of marriage, in the traditional Quaker custom. Alive is very probably a daughter of Renier Lowden (or Loudon). of Salem Co., New Jersey.
At Salem Mo. Mtg., Salem Co., New Jersey, om 30-11mo.-1720, Renier Lowden, a Quaker, and by occupation a tailor, was reported married to Easter (Esther? --editor.) Worthington. On 14 April 1730 the will of Renier Lowden was proven in Salem Co., New Jersey. He names children Robard (Robert -- editor_, Rachel, Eals (Alice - editor)., and not one born, to share equally his property - 100 acres in Salem County, and a house and lot in Salem. Wife Easter was Executrix to his will. The records of Philadelphia Mo. Mtg. show that Renier and Easter were there in 1726-27. Also recorded are the deaths of Rachel Lowden, son of widow Lowden, 5-8mo.-1730.
The maternal grandparents of Alice (Lowden). Hiatt were no doubt the Robert Worthington and wife who were received on certificate from Dublin Mo. Mtg., Ireland, at Salem Mo. Mtg., New Jersey, 26-5mo.-1714. One of their sons must have been the Robert Worthington who married 1729 to Mary Burtis, and was one of the earliest of Quakers to settle near Charles Town in what is now Jefferson Co., W. Va. - this was only five or ten miles from where the Hiatts settled near Middleway, in the same county. This Robert Worthington had a grant of 3000 acres of land in this section, and is known to have lived in Philadelphia, Pa., and in Burlington and Salem, New Jersey before settling in Virginia. His grandson, Thomas Worthington (1769-1827)., was fourth Governor of Ohio, and Mary Worthington, sister of Thomas, was the wife of Ohio's first Governor, Edward Tiffin. Alice Lowden may have come to Virginia with her uncle, Robert Worthington, or perhaps with her mother who probably remarried.
There was a John Lowden (d. 1714)., a Quaker who came from Ireland to Chester Co., Pa., in 1711. His son, Richard Lowden, had a grant of 300 acres in Lancaster Co., Pa., in 1734. John may have been a brother or close relative of Renier Lowden.
William Hiatt died in 1767, and in 1770 his widow, Alice (Lowden). Hiatt, married to John Thomas. The records of Hopewell Mo. Mtg., Frederick Co., Va., give the following data: 4-2mo.-1770-John Thomas disowned for marriage contrary to discipline. 5-7mo.-1770-John Thomas and wife Alyce Hyat disowned for marriage by hireling teacher. 3-3mo.-1777- John Thomas and Alice his wife gave satisfaction ( for being married by a hireling teacher). 3-11mo.-1777-John Thomas and wife Alice granted a certificate to New Garden Mo. Mtg. North Carolina. (R34). New Garden Mo. Mtg., Guilford Co.,North Carolina: 25-4mo.-1778-John Thomas and wife Alice received on certificate from Hopewell Mo. Mtg. dated 3-11mo.-1777. Deep River Mo. Mtg., Guilford Co., North Carolina, records the death of John Thomas: 13-11mo.-1781. (R45).
The immigrant Thomas ancestor was Evan Thomas who came from Wales about 1719, and settled in Philadelphia Co., Pa., within the verge of Gwynedd Mo. Mtg. In 1726 Evan Thomas and wife Catherine removed to Goshen Mo. Mtg. in Chester Co., Pa. Evan Thomas was one of Alexander Ross' seventy families, and was one of the early Quaker ministers at Hopewell. His will was dated 18-6mo.-1753, and was proven 1 April 1755, naming the following children: Evan, Jr., John, Thomas, Enos, and Martha. (R34). Evan Thomas died 4-2mo.-1755, aged about 70.
Evan Thomas, Jr., married Albenah Ross, daughter of Alexander Ross, and they were the parents of the Mary Thomas who married 1744 at Hopewell to John Hiatt (son of John Hiatt, Jr. and grandson of John Hiatt, immigrant - editor.) At Hopewell 20-12mo.-1770-David Ross, son of John, dec., married Catherine Thomas, John and Alice Thomas, Phebe Thomas, and Evan Hiett (son of John and Mary Thomas Hiatt - editor). (R34). The John Thomas who married 1770 Alice (Lowden). Hiatt, was either a son or grandson of Evan and Catherine, married 1814 Ruth (Wright). Horseman, a granddaughter of George and Martha (Wakefield ). Hiatt, thus the families of all three sons of John Hiatt, immigrant, are intermarried with this Thomas family. Martha, wife of Isaac Hiatt, (son of William and Alice (Lowden). Hiatt). may also have been of this family.

In 1900 Oliver S. Hiatt wrote to Jesse M. Hiatt: "John Hiatt settled in vicinity of Hopewell Mo. Mtg. in 1737 and William Hiatt in 1738. This William Hiatt's first wife was Mary Smith and he bought 90 acres of land close to a village now called Smithfield and about 8 miles north of Charles Town, where John Brown wash hung. This William - tradition says - was the son of John Hiatt our emigrant ancestor.… The John who lived near William is supposed to be his brother." (R44, 47). (See pages 32,33, this volume, for a discussion of the "Mary Smith Hiatt" tradition -- editor.)

From information sent April 16, 1991 by Darleen Hiatt Peterson of Wheaton, Ill. 60189: Copy of the William Hyatt land grant 30 Oct 1754. She writes also, "I have all of his Deeds and Indentures from Frederick Co., Va but am sending only this DEED as I believe it to be quite 'special.' No grave site was found in the cemetery records there for Wm Hiatt/Hyatt for which I am so sorry.She also "enclosed several pages from the Hopewell Friends History, 1734 - 1934 which indicate the 'Marriage intentions' of William Hiatt and Alice Lowden made in the Hopewell Meeting House in 1748 before it burned down." She also recommends the society of Frederick Co., Historical Society in Winchester, Va. for a source of information.

Alice Lowden, (2) wife of William Hiatt, son of John and Margaret Hiatt.
He d. Testate by Mar 1767, Frederick CO., Va. Thought to have died in North or South Carolina** Alice Lowden (b. Abt. 1728, d. Aft. 1777)
Alice Lowden (daughter of Renier Lowden and Easter Worthington was born Abt. 1728 in Salem, Salem Co., New Jersey, and died Aft. 1777 in N or S Carolina. She married William Hiatton July 1748 in HopeWell Mo Mtg., Frederick Co., Va., son of John Hiett and Mary Smith Notes for Alice Lowden: Alice Lowden married William Hiatt sometime in July of 1748. He had been previously married and had five children by a previous marriage. He died about 1767 in Frederick Co. Va. and she was remarried to John Thomas. They evidently married outside the Hopewell Mo Mtg of the Quakers and were disowned for marriage by a hireling teacher. Later they gave satisfaction for such an indiscretion and were granted a certificate to New Garden Mo Mtg. Guilford Co. N. Carolina. John Thomas died on Nov. 13, 1781. Although this particular Thomas family does not enter into our own geneological tree, the Thomas family was prominent in the early Quakers with branches in almost every Monthly Meeting that I have seen, and one branch at the Newton Meeting in Chester Co. Penn. was in our direct lineage. Sarah Thomas, the daughter of Peter Thomas and Elizabeth (Goodwin) Thomas, was the mother of Christian Vore, our second male ancestor on this continent. The name appears in our family again as Martha Thomas, wife of Isaac Hiatt. As yet I have been unable to trace the exact lines of the Thomas family in our family. There are numerous geneological studies of other branches, some of which will probably interlink. More About Alice Lowden and William Hiatt: Marriage: July 1748, HopeWell Mo Mtg., Frederick Co., Va..

+Isaac Hiatt , b. Abt. 1751, Fredrick Co., Virginia, Now Jefferson Co, West Virginia, d. Abt. 1824, Guilford Co., North Carolina.Dear Dave, thanks for taking time to write back. I would be so very interested to see all that you do have. I may have some you may be very interested in too. BUT I don't have much at all on the Lowden side, have never really pushed it, but should and would like to, perhaps your contact will encourage that, am sure there is a lot more then what I have. I don't have anything really past Reneir Lowder but do have a lot on the Esther Worthington Side especially gong back several generations on some. I had tons of papers and information published, court records, church, etc. but most of that has become lost, not sure how much I still have or where I have it, binders full. I do have quite a bit in my files. Where does Nancy Lowden come in? I don't have anything on the siblings of Alice but following the Hiatt and associated families have thousands more to add, over 410,000 names and working near full time on my file, My file is predominantly a working, master file, most of what appears from my lines on any site is from my records with people adding to or submitting my information as I have sent most my info to hundreds of others too.
I have made up files on DVD's to send out, would love to see your other lines, I find it very rare to find others of the colonial families that do not share a few or several other family lines too. I don't find the name of Kishlar, that is odd though, does it have other variations of spelling?
I would be happy to share what I have and hope to see what you have as well. I have several books, research, families stories, histories, etc. of dozens of books on dozens of families as well as many I have reprinted, scanned, etc. for research purposes. One I am going to have finished this coming week is Irish Quakers in Ireland and America 1690 thru 1740 published in 1790, very fragile so have to type and will then try to photo it by camera to make PDF format too. Thanks, love to hear more from you on your data too. Sincerely, Larry Anderson Hi Larry You must be a full time professional genealogist. I am still pretty new at it. Anyway, I was looking for info on Nancy Lowden and came across a web site that you might be interested in. It is lowdenhistory.com It has a lot of info on the Lowden family, starting with William Lowden, son of Reiner.

Note from Darleen Peterson. Documentation: Exact site where James Hiatt and Wife, Elizabeth (Moore) Hiatt lived with their family in Clay County, Mo before and after 1820. Today this site of land (Section 31-52-31) is in the city of Liberty, Mo. and is located directly south of the Liberty Hospital.
History of Clay County
As to the first settlers in what is now Liberty township, it is probable that they were Richard Hill, Robert Gilmore, James Gilmore, Samuel Gilmore, Elijah Smith, who settled on Rush Creek, in the southeastern part of the township, in 1820. The two frist named Gilmores, Hill and Smith, came first in the spring and built cabins and put out small corps, leaving their families down in the Petite Osage bottom (commonly called Tete Saw) in Saline County. In the Hill of the year they returned with their families.
Richard Hill settled on section 9, nearly two miles east of Liberty, the others were lower down the creek. All of these families were related. Samuel Gilmore was the father of Robert and James, and the who was the sister of Elijah Smith, and the mother-in-law of James and Robert Gilmore, came with the party and made her home with her brother. She raised Mary Crawford, an orphan, who became the wife of Cornelius Gilliam, and was the first white woman married Clay county.
Other settlers came in quite numerously and located in the southern
portion of the township in 1821, and in 1822, when the county was orginized and Liberty laid out and made the county seat, there were still other additions made to the settlements in what is now the Liberty municipal township - then about equally divided between Gallatin and Fishing River, the two original townships of the county Anthony Harsell says that is 1821 there was but one house north of Liberty - that of James Hiatt, who lived a little more than a mile from town, due north (section 31-52-31) now known as the Baker farm.(227).

I have glanced at Volume I of the Hiatt Hiett book, but have not included any of that information (yet) into my own genealogy. I would be interested to know if there are many errors in that book. The origianl book mentios that John may not be James' father, but William is definitely his grandfather (from memory - I don't have the book with me.) I can prove all the following lineage:
James Hiatt (1784-1856 MO) and Elizabeth Moore (1785-1872 MO)
