Hiett Family Crest

The crest would be the same for HIATT and HIETT, HIETT being the closer to the original spelling or that name. Our ancestor, John HIATT-HIETT, had spelled his name HIEGHT, there are about 21 spellings for this same family so if there is a crest it is all the same, spelling of the name has varied but the history of the crest would be the same as far as it goes.No one I know of has, of yet, proven our lines into the direct lines of the HIATT-HIETT families in historical England but we know they are there, only no proof of lineage beyond John.There is supposition with reason on a couple of variations but I have not seen proof of which to go with.Sincerely,Larry Anderson
