BILL HYATT SR'S DAD WAS BORN JOHN RUFUS HIATT FEB 1868 IN SURRY, N.C. WHEN JOHN MOVED TO GRAHAM
VA IN ABOUT 1890, HE CHANGED HIS NAME TO JOHN HENRY HYATT, A DIFFERENT SPELLING WHICH WE STILL
USE TODAY. IN ORDER TO FOLLOW OUR ANCESTORS THEIR NAMES WILL CHANGE AS THE PATH GETS OLDER.
RUFUS MARRIED ROSA BELL JOHNSON (B JUNE 1868) AND SHE BORE HIM 7 CHILDREN. WALTER RAY HIATT,
ETTA J HIATT, RUFUS HIATT, McDONALD HIATT, RHODA ANN HIATT, JOHN WILLIAM HIATT AND JAMES ROY HIATT.
ROSA BELL DIED ABOUT 1914. SHE DIED WITHOUT A WILL AND THE SURVIVING CHILDREN DEEDED THEIR
SHARES OF THE HOMESTEAD TO THEIR DAD. IN 1916 RUFUS MARRIED A SECOND TIME, A YOUNG GAL BY THE
NAME OF CALLIE LINKOUS. SHE GAVE HIM VIRGINIA IRENE HYATT DECEMBER 16, 1916. THEN WAS BORN
DRUCILLA MAE HYATT, HARRY HENRY HYATT, RUFUS HENRY HYATT (OUR LINE), RUTH HYATT, LINA HYATT,
ROBERT L RICHARD HYATT, MAY HYATT AND JOHN MARVIN HYATT (OCT 1929). AS YOU CAN SEE RUFUS WAS
VERY "FRUITFUL".
AS FAR AS WE KNOW, RUFUS DIED SHORTLY AFTER 1930 AND HIS WIFE, ABOUT 30 YEARS OLD, RE MARRIED.
HER SPOUSE'S NAME IS NOT KNOW AS OF THIS DATE. WHILE BILL HYATT SR WAS SERVING HIS COUNTRY IN
WWII, HE RECEIVED NOTICE THAT HIS MOM WAS DYING IN A HOSPITAL BUT HE HAD HARD TIME GETTING HELP
FROM THE RED CROSS OR OTHERS AND WHEN HE MADE IT BACK TO THE STATES HIS MOM WAS ALREADY
BURIED. APPARENTLY SHE DIED WHILE TRYING TO HAVE A CHILD. IT IS BELIEVE THE CHILD ALSO DID NOT
SURVIVE. THIS AUTHOR HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE CEMETERY OR CALLIE'S MARRIED NAME BILL HYATT
SR SAID SHE WAS BURIED IN A CEMETERY ON THE OLD ROAD BETWEEN BLUEFIELD AND PRINCETON. BILL
NEVER SHARED MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT HIS MOM, DAD AND FAMILY OR MILITARY LIFE WITH HIS CHILDREN
SO IT HAS BEEN HARD TO GATHER INFORMATION.
BILL HYATT SR TOLD BILL HYATT JR (THE AUTHOR) THAT HE WAS LOOKING OUTSIDE THE UPSTAIRS BEDROOM
WINDOW OF HIS HOME IN PRINCETON WHEN HE SAW A PRETTY WOMAN WALKING ACROSS THE FIELD NEAR HIS
HOUSE. THE WOMAN WAS MINNIE PARKER TAKING A SHORT CUT FROM HER HOME TO THE DRUG STORE WHERE
SHE WORKED. SHE MADE SODAS AND ICE CREAM FLOATS AND MORE FOR THE STORE CUSTOMERS. BILL SAID
HE WANTED TO MEET THAT PRETTY WOMAN AND HE DID AND LATER THEY WERE MARRIED AND STARTED THIS
BUNCH.
