p. 411- “Milton R. Hiatt, Druggist, Ridgeville, was born in Jay Country, Indiana. He is the son of Jonathan Hiatt, a native of Virgina. His grandfather was one of the early settlers of Randolph Country, Indiana. Mr. HIATT enjoyed a common school education in his native county, and afterward attended the college at Obberlin, Ohio,for one year. He graduated in the Commercial College at Dayton, Ohio, in 1866. In 1869, he married Levina Mastick, a lady of fine accomplishments. She was at one time a teacher in the Normal School at Lebanon, Ohio, also in the college at Ridgeville in this county. Her father, Owen Mastick, was a native of Vermont, and her mother a native of Connecticut. Until twenty-six years of age, Mr. HIATT was engaged in farming, but afterward adopted mercantile pursuits. For fourteen years, he has been engaged in the drug trade at Ridgeville, and has one of the finest stores in Randolph Country. It is situated on the corner of Walnut and Main streets. Mr. HIATT was elected Town Clerk at the organization of Ridgeville, and served four years, and is now the Treasurer of the corporation and Secretary of the Board of Ridgeville College, in which capacity he is serving his term. By his own efforts and industry, he has succeeded in accumulating property to the value of several thousand dollars. His brother, John W., who now resides in Nebraska, was a solder in the Union Army. His wife is a member of the Missionary Baptist Church.” (R110).
