Medford, Oregon Hiatt’s:

 
For all of you Hiatt’s and former/current Ackworth community folks: I received an interesting phone call from Lawrence (Larry) Hiatt and his sister Dianna Hiatt Levingston. They were actually returning my phone call. They are living in the Medford OR area. Their father was Amos Hiatt Jr. Amos’ father was Henry Hiatt. Henry and Amos (Sr) Hiatt moved to Medford Oregon in the 40’s. They were brothers to John, Harry, Walter and those guys.
 
Larry and Dianna know very few of the ND Hiatt’s. Larry was born in 1947 and I think Dianna said she was born in 1954. Their father Amos has been deceased for about 25 years. They have been tracing their family history, but it’s been hard for them because they don’t know very many of you guys and the family connections. They would be 2nd cousins to the majority of you folks. Florence, in your case they’d be your first cousins one removed. Have any of you put together any genealogy for the Hiatt’s that you can share with them? I have included Larry and Dianna with today’s message.
 
Larry & Dianna, please let me know if you’d like to continue getting these daily Dunseith Alumni messages?

Hi Gary,
 
I am one of those lost e-mails to receive the Dunseith alumni e-mails. I finally asked Neola if she had been receiving them, because I hadn’t heard from you for a few days. Both Mike & I have truly missed reading the daily e-mail. We love it. Keep up the good work!!

Gary,
Iam so happy that Jacqueline got me on your list. Just the emails I received were so interesting.
I now live in Minot but was from the Rolette / Bottineau area. My maiden name was Elve Fuchs.

Folks, Jacqueline Hiatt Fix (79) asked if I could include Elve Fuchs, who is a friend of her mother, Arla (Wallice) Hill Hiatt, on our daily distribution. It is always a pleasure adding new folks to our distribution. Gary

Hi Gary, welcome aboard.

I want to offer my condolences for your Mom’s death. I remember her so well, she was a wonderful lady.

From Cheryl Larson Dakin (71):BEDFORD, TX
 
Happy May Day to everyone! I remember in grade school in Dunseith, making
May baskets out of cupcake liners and pipe cleaners, putting in penny candy
and giving them to friends. I’ve never seen it done anywhere else.
Cheryl Larson Dakin
Cheryl, How well I remember the ND May day’s. We’d leave these “May Day” baskets on peoples porches, hollering “May Day” and then run like heck, trying not to be recognized. We were country folks, so we got some mileage in delivering these baskets to our Ackworth community neighbors. It was a lot of fun. Gary

Gary has left for his weekly semi drive from Springfield, Mo. to Kingman, Az., but he ask me to put a note in the blog. Yes, definitely the picture is of John Bedard. Gary remembers him well with much respect. (my note: I think it really made Gary realize just what a speck of time we are here and just how quickly we are forgotten!! A reminder to concentrate on family.)
Also, to Jan Bergan Evans…yes, there were two Kelvin’s. Gary will input more on that subject when he gets back home.

So sorry for the problems. I always sat say that is why God gave me children. Just to let you know that Ft. Worth has shut down 140 schools for around one week. Other schools have shut down too. Tarrent county. So far Dallas is hanging in. We shall see. The child who dies was a citizen of Mexico and had other medical problems. Please Pray that this ends soon. Susan

Gary,
This is Michaela, Gingers Daughter, in reply to the picture of Pat Hanlan, I do know him quite well, I met him through a friend of mine, he is a super guy, I believe he lives in alaska with his girlfriend, I am not sure of her first name but she is a Monette from Belcourt. Last I heard he was a trucker, you know that show TRUCKERS, he’s one of those guys that drive truck on the dangerous roads of Alaska.
As for the picture of Grandpa and Grandma, I think it beautiful to.
Michaela, do you have any contact info for Pat? I know Neola would love to mail him this picture.
On another topic, I got a message from Neola telling me your mother will be in Minot, I think today, and plans on stopping by Neola’s house to pick up some pictures.
