Ethel Hiatt Peterson:
Folks, especially all of you Hiatt folks. I have located and had a very nice chat with Ethel Hiatt Peterson. Her father was Henry, a brother to John, Will J., Walter, George, Amos and those guys. Henry Hiatt moved to Medford, OR years ago. I thought for awhile I would not be able to locate any members of Henry’s family, but with Evon Lagerquist and I’m sure a little help from her mother Leola and Neola with all of her connections, I think I have or will have all his family members identified through the 4th generation. Ethel and Alice Hiatt Dalbec are the only two surviving children of 2 boys and 6 girls from Henry’s family. Ethel provided me the phone numbers of her children. I contacted Colleen who lives in Oregon and got her email address. She will make sure her mother gets all messages. Her name is Colleen Dolan, email Colleen told me she will pass all these messages onto her siblings as well. Ethel was very excited when I told her I would pass her phone number and address onto you guys. Ethel is a sharp 87 year young lady who was born and raised in the Ackworth community. She told me that at one time they lived on the Stokes place, that later belonged to Esther Tangen, now the Pladson farm. GaryEthel Hiatt Peterson
