Thank you for responding, a Hiam mixed in with Hiatt family interesting, I understand even Shakespeare is known to have used six different spellings of his name ! Before 1837 it was the recording clerks version of a given name that was recorded, local accents of those providing the verbal information made this event even more open to mis-interpretation.
Good luck with researching the Williams family.
