Dick,
Hope you enjoyed your winter vacation ; ) It sounds like you've been doing your homework ... for over 40 years!! Most of what you listed below is for the most part documented on my side. However, it sounds like you have a wealth of information just waiting for me to tap into!!
The article I spoke of is the same as you mentioned below ... The three page article in the Biographical Record of Northeastern Pennsylvania. I only have an old typed out version of it on hand. My father remembers see
Hello. I am pleased to receive the information about the PIATT, et al,
conference this year. Think I will pass, as I am going to Wales a couple of

Hi Eddie,
I am now back to my PA home from my FL home where we winter. As promised, I
briefly checked my records to see what I could tell you to get you further
along on your family line of research. My third great grandfather Isaiah
PIATT and your fifth great grandfather Asa PIATT
were the sons of Philip PIATT.
Your third great grandfather James PIATT (1824-1918) purchased a 210 acre
farm in 1858 near South Canaan, Wayne County, PA. In the 1960's this farm was
still in the family, owned by Jam
Hi Eddie,
Good to hear from you.
Mrs. James Francis Piatt (aunt Edith) was a joy to correspond with back in
the 1960's. You state she passed away on Good Friday 1970. I have this date
as 3/27/1970. Correct?
I was told James Francis Piatt was buried in Richmond, VA but I do not know
if it was the Hollywood Cemetery, I do not think so.
James Weldon Piatt Sr. burial place I do not know, but his son James Weldon
Jr. was buried in Hollywood Cemetery in 1944, or at least that is what I was
told. Ja

Diana shares her experience as a beginning (then more advanced!) genealogist
She has been a longtime friend of mine (our spouses were in the Marine Corps
together in the 1980's) and a few years ago asked me about "that genealogy
thing". Now living in Germany, her research has been diligent and
exceptional. Feel free to leave comments or contact her personally. She's
a gem and so is this article.
