William Perry Johnson book on Hiatt-Hiett Genealogy

Surnames: Hiatt, Day
Does anyone have the book, "Hiatt-Hiett Genealogy and Family History" by William Perry Johnson? If so, I would very much appreciate if you could do a look-up for me.
I am looking for proof of birth and/or death dates for Lydia Hiatt (married surname Day). The dates were: b. Sep 4, 1819 and d. Oct 23, 1871 in Grant County, Indiana. A family tree on WorldConnect gave Mr. Johnson's book as the source, with the page number given as 317. Could someone please look for this entry and tell me if Mr. Johnson listed his sources for these dates in his book?

Marion Public Library has indexed books on Funeral Home Records,Birth & Death Records, Marriage, Divorce...most all county records are indexed, copied and microfilmed and availible.
They accept lookup requests. See Rhonda Stouffer or Betty Reynolds at marion.lib.in.us

I do not have this info but I relate to Lydia thru both Hiatt and Day lines.

Surnames: Hiatt, Hiett, Hiatt-Hiett, Hyatt, Hite, Hollingsworth, Sulgrove
My grt grt grandfather Enos Hollingsworth 1825 OH- 1873 ILL
married Ellender Hiatt c1825 NC- 1898 IN on Jun 25 1844 in Jonesboro, Grant Co Indiana.
Family tale says Ellender's family were the first white settlers in Mill Twp, Grant Co., IN. Grant County Historical says that settler was William Hiatt in 1824. William was born in 1775 NC and died in 1855 at Jonesboro, IN. His wife's name was Elizabeth Sulgrove.
I have not been able to link Ellender by document to William & Elizabeth. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for responding, and I will follow your advice. I apologize for not answering sooner, but I just read your message. I was supposed to get a notice of your reply, but something apparently went awry.
I am related to the Days not through Lydia, but through her brother-in-law, Jesse Day, who was also Joseph's twin. I have some information on Jesse and Joseph's family, and a lot on their mother's family, the Ballingers. I'd be happy to share if you are interested.

Surnames: Day, HIatt, Hollingsworth, Todd, Webb
I guess I need to give a little clarity also. Beginning with my maternal grandmother Lura LaVada Hollingsworth who married Noah Ellsworth Webb on Ap 20 1901.

Lura L Hollingsworth 1884 IN-1959 IN
Daniel Curtis Hollingsworth 1853 IN-1934 IN
Ellender Hiatt 1825 NC- 1898 IN
William Hiatt 1775 NC- 1855 IN

I will stop at William Hiatt as I have no documentation only an oral family story to link Ellender to William.

As for my Day connection it goes as this:

Noah Ellsworth Webb 1880 IN-1948 IN
Susan D Todd 1853 IN -1882 IN
Mahala Day 1818 IN- 1907 IN
Mark Day 1790 PA- 1870 IN

Mahala is a sister to Jesse Lee Day b Mar 1 1821 in Indiana and died May 29 1878 in Illinois.
I really am hoping to find a documented connection between Ellender Hiatt and William Hiatt. Ellender has been a brickwall for about 2 years now.

I do have the book, I had reprinted this book with hundreds of copies, I have it retyped and scanned from orinal with over 100 additional pages, I have also volumes II and III on PDF and Microsoft Word format so I could send any page or pages also by email. My dat base is now just over 393,000. I cannot understand how it is that everyone does not have my contact or information as I had worked as the central point of all HIATT/HIETT data the past 30 years. NEW FOUND INFO is an additional proven line of our John Hiatt, Quaker Imm. of another 5 generations in England. Larry Anderson, LarryAndy@aol.com

Sent by Ruhama Shannon from Sulgrove Family Record, and Hiatt Family by John O. Beasley.

William and Elizabeth removed in 1805/6 from N.C. to Ohio where Joseph was born ca 1806/7. Ca 1806/7 they moved to Wayne Co., Ind. where his brother Isaac & John settled. In 1826/7 they removed to Grant Co., Ind.

William was living with his son in Grant Co., Ind. in the 1850 census.

Sketch of William Hiatt written by Charles E. Rush, a great grandson:
"William Hiatt entered land 31 July 1826 in Grant Co., Indiana; then only one or two dozen families in the County. With son David settled on mile north of Jonesboro on west bank of Mississinewa River, which later was considered as
possible site for the county seat. Moved family early in 1827, cutting a woods road orchard in the region, and was the local authority on grafting and pruning. He was the first to enter land in Mills Township. He and wife are buried in the Old Friends Cemetery in Marion.
Marriage information sent by Marjorie Smith, found in North Carolina Archives.

We have not had much success in receiving information from these lines and many of them are not very complete. This should be an easy one to follow since so many would have family stories of their grandfather, uncle or cousins connected to the delicious apple.
In 1966, in response to an article written by Cappers Weekly concerning the delicious apple and Jesse Hiatt, Golda Hiatt, widow of Arthur Hiatt of Amelia, Neb. wrote a response to Mrs. David Hiatt of Pierre, S.D.

Dear Mrs. Hiatt Amelia, Neb.
Nov. 22nd 1966
I saw your article in the Cappers paper. That Jesse Hiatt was an Great Uncle of your Husband.
We could be related to as Jesse Hiatt was a great uncle of my husband.
Uncle Leslie, Arthur & Elam were an uncle of my husband.
We have the picture of the old apple tree, and my husbands father Stephen & Uncle Arthur & Aunt Evaline is standing by it.
If you ever get down here, would like to have you come & see us. My husband Arthur just passed away in June (1966). I thought it would be interesting to write you.
Respectfully
Mrs. Arthur Hiatt Amelia, Neb.

Then a card sent 14 Dec 1966: Best Wishes, Goldie, Paul and Gene (Hiatt)
Dear Mrs. Hiatt
I was glad to get your letter & I hope we can meet sometime. I wish my husband was living, he would be so glad to heard from you.
We had a real good year, but it is so dry now.
I hope you have a nice Christmas Goldie Hiatt
Paul & Gene
