According to old deeds and papers in the possession of Jones Bennett Hiatt, of Renfro Valley, Bennett Hiatt in 1824 purchased from the Harmon Bailey heirs a part of the tract of land which Bailey had obtained from Underwood's Virginia Grant of 6750 acres, issued under the signature of Patrick Henry in 1781. The sale to Hiatt was dated in 1824, as noted above, and it is assumed that immediately thereafter he erected the big log house which still stands as a landmark in Refro Valley. Bennett had married one of the Bailey sisters, and in this house they raised their family and spent their remaining days. A son, Jones, married Tabitha Ard, and they raised three children in the old home, Lura, Lura, and Jones. Jones married Margaret Maret and they occupied the house as long as they lived, Jones ("Pappy" Hiatt) expiring there at 97 years of age. His sister, Lura, married George Fish and they made their home a few miles down Renfro Creek, on what I remember as one of the best farms in the county. The older sister, Laura, married Andy Baker. At her death in 1974 she was 108 years old.
Sister to Sarah, who married William Peasley Hiatt.
Never married, died at an early age.
