From info provided by Beverly Kilpatric....my aunt 1/10/90 Grew up on the Hiatt homstead on "BULL CREEK" in Sioux Co. Nebraska, worked as a ranch hand on the Cook Ranch when old enough to strike out on his own. Albert married his childhood sweetheart Lois Fluent. They homesteaded on the Kinkaid settlement in Kinkaid, Andrews Co. Nebraska, while her son George was born.
They then moved to Orella, where Hugh & Bertha Hiatt lived and then moved on to Crawford, Ne where Albert worked for the railroad in the roundhouse. The railroad job played out during the depression and Albert worked in the Pete Smith Garage in Crawford for less than a dollar a day.

In June 1940 they returned to Burney, California where Albert worked at Scotts Lumber. The famliy settled in Burney, built thier home, and raised their family.
