Genealogy of the Hiatt family according to Harmon Hiatt, of Crawfordville, Ind.
Had a farm west of Richmond, Ind. about two miles. He cut off his timber and sold it for firewood and thus cleared his land. There were born to them three sons and one daughter, Jurietta married a Mr. Brown, lived on a farm, and hauled cords of wood to town. The boys were Risden, Ryon and P. Newby. The boys had six horse teams and hauled good, flour, bacon and grain from Richmond to Cincinnati, and brought back loads of goods for the merchants. There was great strife between teamsters who could haul the largest load and have the best looking team of horses. This was before the day of railroads or turnpikes.

Reminiscence of Early Days in Kansas, by Mrs. Winnie Smith Lyons (No. 2059.) -- editor.): (From an article she wrote in her 85th year for the Douglas County (Kansas). Historical Society).: - "My father, Edwin Smith, was a descendant of William Smith, of Wrightstown, who came to Bucks Co., PA, from Yorkshire, England, in 1684, and his wife, Mary Croasdale, daughter of Thomas and Agnes Croasdale, who with their six children, came to Bucks Co., on the Ship 'Welcome' in 1682.
"Father's mother was Margaret Coale, a descendant of William Coale, a prominent Quaker of Ann Arundel Co., Md.
"Father was born in Chester Co., Pa., February 28, 1818. In 1836, the family moved to Wayne Co., Indiana. He was married at Dublin, Ind., January 3, 1846, to Lydia Hiatt, daughter of Silas and Anna (Clary). Hiatt, who had come from Guilford Co., NC. about 1824.
"Soon after their marriage, my parents returned to Coatsville, Chester Co., Pa., where they lived for eleven years. In the fall of 1857, with their three children, of which I was the youngest, they emigrated to Kansas, as my mother's brother, Henry Hiatt, who had come to Kansas several years before, had written of the advantages of this new country, and of homes to be had by taking up a homestead."They traveled as far as Jefferson City, Mo., by rail, then, as the railroad terminated there, they took a steamboat to Leavenworth, Kansas, then the stage-coach to Lawrence and on to the home of my Uncle Henry at Twin Mounds about twenty miles southwest of Lawrence. Twin Mounds, which was then a Post-office, derives its names from two long mounds, similar in size and shape, in the vicinity.
"During the winter of 1857-58, we lived in a small log house across the road from the farm now owned by my cousin, Clyde Hiatt. The next spring, Father entered homestead papers on 160 acres of good bottom land south of Twin Mounds, on Rock Creek, but being without funds and equipment, he traded his equity in this homestead for a yoke of oxen and pre-empted another quarter section a little farther north and a mile west. As winter was coming on, he hastily erected a log cabin and tried to make things as comfortable as he could for inclement weather. The nest spring, he plowed up the sod and planted corn. But sod corn was not a very profitable crop and when the drought of 1860 came, very few of the farmers were able to live through the winter without help from more prosperous friends. Many settlers sent back east to friends asking for money, clothing, and seed for another crop. I do not remember this drought for I was born in 1865, and was only a year old when we came to Kansas, but I do remember a later one when we again had to ask help from friends and relatives in Pennsylvania. They sent us a box of clothing, mostly old discarded garments; a very few were new. Dresses and hats were out of date, most of the shoes we could not wear, but we made the best of it and were truly thankful that we could keep warm and go respectable. They did send us some money, so it wasn't so bad after all.
"Log cabins dotted the prairies, here and there, about us. They were covered with clapboards hewed from native lumber, the cracks chinked with caly. I have often heard mother tell of the first home we had in kansas. It was made of large logs notched at the corners to make them fit more closely. The wind whistled through the walls in winter and the dust blew through in summer, but she papered the walls with newspapers and made rag rugs for the floors and we thought we were 'living like Kings', very enthusiastic and hopeful about the new country they were to conquer.
"Though living close to the streams, there was no shade on the prairie, so everyone hastened to plant groves for protection from the cold blasts of winter and the intense heat of summer for they found Kansas to be a land of extremes in climate. Our first shade trees were cottonwood, box-elder, black locust, and the coffee-bean tree. As they were short-lived, they were later replaced with elm, oak, and hard maple.
"For some time there were no neighbors west of us. The land was all open prairie, owned by Eastern Capitalists. Cattle ran free on these prairies and it was my task, with the aid of our good shephers dog, to round up our own cattle each evening and drive them home. We always cut our hay from this land, and the earliest settlers got the best cuttings.
"When county lines were clearly established, Father found that his farm was no tin Douglas County, but just over the lines in Osage County. But all our activities lay to the east; we got our mail at Twin Mounds P. O. in
Douglas County and we were in the Twin Mounds School district. The first school I attended was in a little red schoolhouse located near to where the Twin Mounds Church now stands. Later I went to the stone schoolhouse which is still being used for school purposes."My Uncle, Henry Hiatt, kept the store at Twin Mounds and operated the first wind grist mill in the part of the country. He was also the Postmaster and kept an Inn which was one of the stopping places on the stage line between Lawrence and Emporia.
"Prairie fires were frequent, and Father was often called out to help some neighbor protect his buildings. Sometimes backfires failed to stop the fire and then women and children rushed to aid with water and wet burlap sacks. Once father lost a large crib of corn in one of these fires and the whole family sat up all night watching the sparks that other buildings would not catch fire. Later buildings and even the fences were built of stone. The house on Father's farm which replaced the log cabin was made of stone in 1870 and is still occupied by the present owner.
"After the drought of 1860, times were very hard, and in the summer of 1863, Father went to Lawrence, where he entered into partnership with a Mr. Sargent to engage in the grocery and meat business. In the early morning of August 21, of the year, Quantrell and his guerilla band swooped down upon the town just as the stores were being opened. Upon hearing the firing Mr. Sargent ran out the back door of the store and was shot and badly wounded. Father went into the cellar, which was partially filled with water. The building was fired and he escaped through a window. He found Mrs. Sargent standing near her husband and helped her drag him to a spot farther from the flames, then hid in the brush on the bank of the river nearby until Quantrell's men had passed on to another part of town. Mr. Sargent died. Lawrence was a peaceful town, the citizens were unarmed, and there were very few men left to care for the dead and to rebuild the town.
"Father continued in business at a new location and in October brought his family to Lawrence to live. I attended school in the historic old Unitarian Church which stood on the west side of the Ohio Street in the 900 block. There were many alarms that guerillas were coming again and teacher and pupils would hide for awhile in the brush on the hillside but none ever came. Later I went to school in the old Central School and attended Sunday School at the Methodist Church which stood where the Masonic Temple now stands.
"In 1869, after living in Lawrence seven years, we moved back to the farm. Sister Emma was married from the old homestead in 1875 and I was married there a year later. Father died in 1898 and a few years later the homestead was sold and Mother and my two brothers moved to Quenemo in Osage County.
"Father was a quiet man, but took a keen interest in the life of the community and was always ready to help in any way. For awhile, he was Justice of the Peace and ever after was often addressed as Squire Smith, by the old settlers.
"Mother was past 89 years when she died Quenemo. She was a remarkable woman in many ways. She was a great reader, and took a lively interest in political affairs. She kept a diary, never missing a day's entry until within a month of her death, and carried on an extensive correspondence with numerous friends and relatives." (R108).
Both Edwin and Lydia were birthright Quakers, as was my mother, Winnie Smith Lyons. There was no meeting of Quakers nearer than Lawrence, twenty miles away, which was too far for them to attend as horse and buggy was their means of travel. The Methodists held Sunday School and preaching services at Twin Mounds Schoolhouse, which they attended. When these meetings were discontinued, Grandmother and my uncles, Wilmer and Chester Smith, went to church at Richland, in Shawnee County, seven miles away. Grandmother and my uncles finally joined the Methodist Church there, but Grandfather never joined any other church. -- Ida G. Lyons (R108).

From Genealogy of the Hiatt Family according to Harmon Hiatt, of
Crawfordville, Ind.They moved from Carolina in 1821 (Probably New Garden MM, Guilford Co., N.C.) to Wayne Co., near Milton and commenced to clear up a farm, but he sold and bought another one west of Milton and adjoining the Village.
His wife, Anna, died soon after and he finally married an Eastern, or N.Y. lady who was an interesting conversationalist. He was a man of deep thought and good judgement.
He was with the Hicksites and was a Unitarian which gave great offense to his brother Benajah, and all his family agreed in opinion with him, except Irena, who had lived a number of years with a Mr. Wilson, who was orthodox.
Silas became more and more confirmed in his Unitarianism as he became older and died at Milton, and was buried there.EVEN

She was deaf and dumb from infancy, she was careful of interest and happiness of her brothers and sisters. She lived to be 70 years old, and died in Milton, Ind. I believe she was visiting her cousin, Ann Unthank at the time of her death.

b. 17-2mo-1830; d. 17-9mo-1880; m. 3-4mo-1860, to JOSHUA MOFFITT, son of Hugh and Hannah (Davis). Moffitt; lived in Bone Co., Indiana.(NOTE: Sent by Amos Hiatt, Found in Davis, A Quaker Family, page 477.
Martha White Hiatt, daughter of Mordecai Hiatt, did indeed marry a Joshua Moffitt, but she was not born until 1830 and married in 1860. The Hiatt genealogy, p. 440, incorrectly stated that the Joshua she married was the son of Hugh and Hannah Davis Moffitt. Inasmuch as Martha moved to Boone Co., Ind. immediately after marriage, her husband was most probably the son of David and Rachel Cox Moffitt.)
