Del you are right, not sure why the mix up, he was old! He is the son of John Jr. (that is a throw too, since he was referred to as Jr. because named after Grandfather), son of Jesse, son of John, son of William, son of John Hiatt and Mary Smith. Apparently he is referred to as Joseph Jr. because of naming after his great Uncle. There was no child Joseph Jr. of Joseph Sr. but he did have 17 children. The story of one son of Joseph Sr. is Col. Johnson Hiatt, interesting story here too. Will paste in.

This manuscript was compiled by Adelaide Upson Hiatt who husband, Colonel Johnson Hiatt was a nephew of Mary Ann Hiatt McAllister Garrett. It was compiled from stories told by Mary Ann who visited in the Colonel Hiatt's home many times.
Joseph Hiatt (father of Colonel Johnson Hiatt) and Mary Ann Hiatt Garrett Were the grandchildren of L.P. Proctor., he with eight brothers fought in the War of the Revolution. He was the ninth or youngest brother. The maiden name of his wife was Sarah Woodruff. Joseph Proctor, the eldest brother, during the settlement of Kentucky where they lived, helped to fight the Indians and was a companion of Daniel Boone. Grandfather John Hiatt, the great, great, grandfather of the present generation was a native of North Carolina and a Quaker. As he did not believe in bloodshed he paid a four fold tax instead of going to war. Jesse, his son was the eldest of 4 brothers, (James, Samuel, John) and his wife's name was Polly Proctor being a daughter of L.P. Proctor who helped drive the Indians from Kentucky and Flat Purchased in Mo.
The nine brothers who served in the War of the Revolution were under General Jackson. Grandfather Proctor was a Methodist preacher. Grandmother Proctor, Sarah Woodruff had four brothers and four sisters. Her father married twice, and his second wife had thirteen children. Grandfather Page Proctor was a mail carrier from one fort to another and had to pass a field of cane on his trip. One time he saw Indians coming through and they came after him. He turned his horse to run and it fell to the ground. One of his legs caught but he extracted himself and ran on. Before they could catch his horse, it regained its feet and ran after him. Page stepped to one side, and as the horse ran past he caught the reins of the bridle bounced on his back and rode on, leaving the Indians cheering him. Another time, an Indian came to the fort and began to shoot behind a stump. Joseph Proctor leveled his gun, and when the Indian raised up to shoot again, killed him. At another time, he was out hunting with another man. They were a short distance apart when a Indian came up and shoot his companion through the shoulder. He began to run to Joseph Proctor with the Indian in pursuit, ready to strike him with his tomahawk. As they ran, Joseph Proctor motioned his partner to jump aside and he shot the Indian dead.
Grandfather Proctor lived to a ripe old age. He was born in Kentucky and died in Hamilton County, Ill. Senator Proctor was a distant cousin of Polly Proctor, mother of Joseph Hiatt and Aunt Mary Ann Garrett. Joseph Hiatt's brothers were James, David, Samuel, and Reuben. His sisters were Susanna and Mary Ann. His father's name was Jesse Hiatt and his mother's name was Mary (Polly) Proctor. Jesse Hiatt, Aunt Mary's father was born in Kentucky and married his wife, Mary Proctor in Madison Co., Kentucky. He was a farmer and stock raiser and died in Fremont Co., Iowa. He came there in 1852. He had a soldier's war claim that he laid on land in Fremont Co. He died about 1856. He was one of the earliest settlers of Peoria Co., Ill. He was under General Stillman in the Blackhawk War. All the Proctor men were active and about six feet tall.
