The couple will continue to make their home in Durham, where Hiatt is in the trucking business." ~~~ CHICO ENTERPRISE, Wednesday Evening, September 4, 1931, pg 4, col 3: "Charivari Given For Newlyweds. "Durham – One of the special social events of the week was a charivari given for Mr. and Mrs. Sherman (nee Ferris [sic: Adkins]) Hiatt at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H.A. Coon. A joy ride in a truck featured the early evening and then all the guests were served with refreshments. "Those who participated in the informal party were Messrs and Mesdames H.A. Coon, Bud Linsy, William Rodgers, Leroy Ford, Walter Wageman, Bert Brines, Dick Coon, Kenneth Smith, and the Misses Ruth, Lora and Alice Brown, Lela Triplett, Mrs. Elmer Howard, Mrs. M. Smith, Mrs. Homer Speegle and Lester Blansit." ~~~~ The Sacramento Bee, of Saturday, November 25, 1950, noted: “Valley Women in Agriculture. Grandmother has Found New Career As Meat Cutter. “Durham, Butte Co., Nov. 25. For the past four years Mrs. Doris Hiatt has been working at the Durham cold storage and locker plant handling meat and she loves her job. When Mrs. Hiatt, a grandmother, began this work it was just a job. But now she loves every minute of it. She is kept busy with cutting, boning, wrapping and packing of meat. “When asked what she does like about it she says: Nothing, but I like deer season least of all. Then all the deer meet must be cut and wrapped and stored in the boxes and the regular work must also be taken care of. “Hard Worker. A.M. Strong, Mrs. Hiatt’s employer, says: ‘The only time Doris is unhappy is when there isn’t enough work to do. And you should have watched her during the recent storm when the power was off, she was like a caged animal’ “And he adds: ‘Contrary to the popular conception that all women are chatterboxes, Doris talks only when it is necessary to have something explained.’ “Vacuum Packed. Recently the business acquired a new gadget, a vacuum packer and now this capable, hard working woman has added the use of this to her other duties. She weighs the proper amount of hamburger or other contents, fills the plastic bags, vacuums out the air, seals the bags with rubber bands and they are ready for storage in the lockers. “The cutting block, where Mrs. Hiatt works, has an opaque glass block window in front of it but there is a glass door through which one can watch the main street of the busy little town of Durham. “But most of the time this grandmother turned meat cutter is much too busy and interested in her work to pay any attention to what goes on outside.” ~~~ Chico Enterprise-Record, Thursday, February 22, 2001, pg 6C: Doris Hiatt – Durham – A graveside service for Doris Lillian Hiatt, 92, of Durham, will be at 2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 24, in Chico Cemetery. She dies Wednesday, Feb. 21, 2001, in Durham. Mrs. Hiatt was born Oct. 13, 1908, to Lewellen and Hazel Adkins in Armona. She married Sherman Hiatt on Aug. 26, 1931. He died in 1983. Employed for more than 25 years, Mrs. Hiatt retired from Continental Nut Co. and Durham Locker. She enjoyed sewing, crocheting, gardening and being a full-time grandma.
