  • Notes 
    • LKH note:

      William Thatcher Hiatt married a second time on 28 April 1836 in Gallia County, Ohio to Jemima Johnson. They had several children.

      In the 1850 census Esther Hiatt Markwell is the in the household of her son, Joel Markwell.

      Since she has reverted to the surname of Markwell, it it reasonable to assume that she and her third husband Thatcher William Hiatt had divorced before his next marriage in 1836.
