I am a descendant of Lewis
Rogers Hyett. His father was George
Hyett, born in 1800 in
Ohio. Lewis
Rogers Hyett actually appears in a chapter on
Mercer County,
Illinois, with a photograph and information on his life. Unfortunately, I am not able to determine the mother of Lewis
Rogers Hyett and Mary J. Hyett or the parents of George
Hyett. My mother who is in her 80's is adamant that the spelling needs to be
Hyett. However, in the census records for George
Hyett, the spelling appears as Hiatt/Hyatt.
