D/o Charlie Inscore and McMillian. Sent by George Williams 20 Sep 2005, sent by Email, epd@surry.net, a letter from Shelby to Esther Johnson.
Dear Esther,
The Tom Raleigh Hiatt who married Exie Inscore was born 19 Sep 1902 and died 14 Aug 1980. He was the son of Robert (Feb. 26, 1872 died June 4, 1962) and Laura Harrold (April 4, 1878 to Feb 17 1966). Robert's parents were Anderson Hiatt and Martha Frances Boyd.
He married Elizabeth Exona "Exie" Inscore (born 20 Mar 1908 and I can't locate her death date but I think it was 2001 - I'll keep looking). She was the daughter of Charlie Meiggs Inscore and Virginia Leannah McMillian. I do not have a marriage date for them but their first child was born in Sept 1925.
I hope this helps you some and will keep looking for Aunt Exie's obit. I apparetnly have it in a folder to be filed and just can't put my hands on it. She lived to be about 93 or 94 years old and was extremely alert until her death - had a great memory and was fun to talk to. She was a sister to my father. If I can be of any other help, let me know - will be happy to share any information I have.
Shelby.
Esther writes:

The George Hiatt Family
The Hiatt family origin has been traced back to England, where three brothers joined William Penn on his second journey to America in 1699. The three Quakers had large families that became scattered through the generations throughout the United States.
Harmen Albert Hiatt was probably the first to settle in North Dakota. He was the son of Amos Hiatt and Hannah Cox Hiatt. He married Louisa alice Woodford (daughter of George Woodford and Mary Delilah Davis). They came by train from Des Moines, IA, to Webster, Nd, in 1900 with their chidlren, Henry and Amos (by a former marriage), George, Anna Mae (an adopted daughter), Joseph William, John Jackson, James Arther, and Hannah Deliah. There wasn't enough money for fare for the entire family so the two oldest boys rode in a box car with the livestock.
The family stayed in Webster only a short while, then moved to Turtle Mountains where they opened a post office, which they named "Ackworth", after a community in which they'd lived in Iowa. Three more children, Charlotte Marie, Harry and Walter, were born after they reached North Dakota. George Hiatt was 13 years old at the time and attended school at Ackworth. He later worked on threshing rigs and on the railroad until 1915 when he married Eva Crawford.
Eva's father's family had come from Ireland and her mother, Harriet Hatch's family, from England. They settled first in Canada and then by way of MIchigan, SD, and Minnesota, came to North Dakota via covered wagon. THey brought with them a team or horses, a cow, a bottel lamb and 10 children to the Long Lake area in Bottineau County.
Eva worked at hotels and cafes and as a mother's helper. she was working for a family in the Ackworth community when she met George Hiatt.
George and Eva made their home at teh Ackworth Post Office for about 5 years, then moved up nar the Canadian border where he trapped furs. Eva tells of the hobos and convicts that often stopped for a emal or a night's sleep as they traveled to and from Canada.
In 1929 George and Eva bought thier home place from Olive Thompson. George worked for a time with WPA, was a guide for hunters, and a trapper. Eva was artistic and a nature lover adn often combined the two talents by sketching animals and birds. She also carved toys for their 12 children.
The 12 Hiatt children were all born at home with the help of a midwife. When help couldn't be reached in time, George was the midwife. With doctors and moeny both being scarse at the time, everything from pneumonia to major injuries were treated at home.
There was lots of work to be done by means of "horse" power and "people" power, but here was also fun to be had.
The family took part in the socials held at the Ackworth School, then the community center. There were pie, cake and basket socials. There were shadow socials where the ladies stood behind a urtain while hte men bid on their shoes or shadows. THe odler men had fun raising the bids so a young man wuold have to pay a big price to eat with is favorite girl.
The Hiatt family attended ant too part in literaries where members of the community performed for one another. Often people got together to play horse shoe and softball.

Harmen Hiatt Family
Harmen Albert Hiatt and Alice Louisa (Woodford) Hiatt emeigrated to North Dakota from Ackworth, IA, in the spring of 1900. Their family can be traced back to the William Penn colony.
They came by train to Bottineau and had a rail car for their stock, household goods and seed which they planted near Bottineau that first spring. Rust invaded the crop and they suffered a complete crop failure.
That Fallthey moved into Turtle Mountains, Homesteading on land one mile east of the Bottneau County line when he did, but continued to the west after the crop failure. To make a living they chopped wood and hauled it to Dunseith and Bottineau to sell.
The Ackworth Community derived it's name from the Hiatt's home community in Iowa.
Mr. Hiatt served on the Dunseith School Board when the Dunseith School District consisted of six townships: Gilbert, Durrie, Russell, Hillside, Willow Lake and Holmes. Later the district was divided into one district per township. now the Dunseith School District is back to almost its' original size.
Harmen Hiatt operated a small store in connection with the Ackworth Post Office. He farmed and did carpenter work as his father before had doen. many of his grandchildren are also carpenters. His grand daughter, Mrs. Adam Lang, lives on a farm where the barn was built years ago by Harmen. It is still in use.

Willie J. Hiatt
Willie, or "Will" as he was caleld, emigrated with his parents to Bottineau County in 1900. They farmed one year and rust ruined the crop. The following year they moved to the Turtle Mountains and homesteaded in Willo Lake township. When Willie was 21 years old his mother passed away. It had been his mothers wish that Willie should take care of the four youngest children: Lilia, 15, Lottie, 13, Harry, 11, and Walter between 7 and 8. They rented the Ingals farm and lived there seven years. It ws at thsi time that his siter Lottie passed away. Willie, undecided about what to do, decided to have an auction sale and pay up the bills, as the children were pretty well grown now. His place had always been a home for the whole family. When the sale was over and the bills paid, he had nothing left.
Margaret Kerr came to the Turtle Mountains about this time from Kenmare, ND, where she was born and raised. Her parents were Alex and Ida Kerr. They had moved from Minesota to North Dakota in the early days. She and Willie were married Nov. 9, 1920. The first winter they took care of Frank Stoke's horses for $40 a month, then moved to an empty house on the John Hiatt place. They worked all summer for Frank for the use of his horses to put in a crop. That fall rye was 19 cents a bushel and when he brought it to the elevator they told him to take it home and feed it to the livestock.
Mrs. Dougal Martin gave Margie a little pig. They kept it until it was full grown and then sold it for $30. At this time they moved to what was to be their permanent home. They fixed up a little log shack and built a log barn and got started again.
We always had lots of people around. we raised a big garden, had chickens and milked cows. we always had enough to eat and enough for any who came to our place. Our house was near the Ackworth School and we had many fine teachers stay with us. We saw many kids go through the eight grades and enjoyed every bit of it. It was part of our lives. It took lots of cookies and birthday cakes for kids and teachers. When Gene and Veryl stared school (dinner pails and all) they got into a little squable on the road, and their dinner pails got left on what was known as the Amos Hiatt Hill. Come dinner time --- no dinner --- so of course they came to Margi's for dinner that day.
Insert Picture
Willie and Margie had one son, Norman. He married Irene arends from the Willow City area. Their children are: James, Marlys, Vickie and Laurie. James married Judy Jones from California and they have four children. vickie married Myron Lafontaine and they have one child. Norman moved to Dunseith to manage the Gamble Store, and James lives on his place. There are six great grand children. We have always had them near us and enjoy that a lot.
Willie passed away Nov. 30, 1973, and Margaret still lives on the home place, in the comforatble home they continued to build on to and improve. In 1938 they built a barn that was 29x60, using 13,000 feet of Turtle Mountain lumber at a cost of $1,500.
Willie E. Hiatt
Willie E. Hiatt, son of Amos E. Hiatt, married Maxine Radley Sept. 23, 1939. They farmed in the Turtle Mountains on what is known as the Stokes Place, in Willow Lake Township. They stayed there until the fall of 1955 when they moved to Bottineau for School and have lived there ever since. They arenow retired. They had four children:
