Looking for Melody Piatt. b. about 1969 or 1970. Lived in Marion, Ohio around 1975 though 1979. She would have went to Pearl Street Elem. during this time.
Bouncing around the web turned up this 1832 statement concerning John Piatt,
Revolutionary War fifer, and son of Major Daniel Piatt of the 1st New Jersey.
Apparently this John was a fifer from 1776 until after his father's death in camp
in Morristown on (by memory) 16 Apil 1780. The account of Fifer John's
experiences in the military seem to be excerpted and it might pay to examine the
original document. (If I have misidentified either John or Daniel, please post a
correction.) The webpage with the

information, please let me know.

Thanks Liz for the information. Interesting that Rene would pick Piat as a new
name. I wonder if he was particularly pious in as in the nomitive form or if
the name comes from pieux mensonge which is a white lie. Your magpie theory
might be true as well. I translated this. Please excuse any mistakes, I am a
bit rusty.

Regarding your John H. Piatt. He is John Harvey Piatt, son of Samuel Piatt
and wife Frances Elizabeth Stewart, daughter of Marion and Polly Stewart.
John Harvey was born 7/14/1881 in Dent Co., MO. and died 4/8/1957. His wife
was Alice Parilee Smith.
Samuel Piatt was Samuel Pleasant Piatt born 1/23/1858, died 8/16/1920 and
Frances Stewart was born 4/15/1859, died 1942. Hope this helps your research.

I was watching a movie today on HBO and noticed that one of the actors name
was OLIVER PIATT!
Does anyone know what family he belongs to?

Historical Collection cites 3 sources for the family name Piatt:
Albert Dauzat: Dictionnaire Etymologie de Noms de Famille et Prenoms de

Hi Mary,
James Pyott (Piett, Pyatt) was born about 1742 and died in 1825 in Upper
Darby Township, Delaware County, PA. James "Pyot" was married in 1772 at
Old Swede's Church in Philadelphia, PA, to Rosanna Kearnes; she was born
about 1750 and died with a will in 1832 in Upper Darby.
James Pyott was apparently the first son of John Pyott and Deborah
Brunson(?). John Pyott, a weaver, was born about 1714 and died with a will
in 1787 in Loudoun County, VA. John was married about 1735 to Deborah
Bruns
Seeing the name, "Rachel BEAR", reminded me of an article, either in the PFN
or the Piatt Photogravure, which contained much bio on Charles Bear Piatt. I
think it was submitted by his granddaughter or gr-granddaughter. Could
Rachel be an ancestor of Charles, hence the unusual middle name?

Laverne,
I am sure you will recall me giving facts about this situation at a couple
different conferences. This marching westward and John D. Piatt being kicked
by a horse all occurred in Easton, PA. just across the Delaware River from
New Jersey.

Hello everyone,
I am new to the list and am hoping that some of you might be able to help me
with a huge brick wall that I'm having trouble knocking down. I'm trying to
find the parents of James Pyat (Pyott, Pyot) who lived around Upper Darby,
PA in the late 1700s. He married Rosanna Kearnes in 1772 at Old Swede's
Church in Phila. and they had children named: Elizabeth, Mary, James,
Richard, Alexander, and Abram. I believe he may be the same James Pyott who
is mentioned in Ashmead's history of Del
For Robin,
We always have to be suspicious of any name that looks like it could be a
misreading or misspelling of Piatt/Pyatt. But in the case of Bartholomew Fryatt
he really was a Fryatt and his information can be found at:
http://www.familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/g/ r/i/Allan-Griffith/FILE/
0039page.html
That's a long link that has to be pasted back together in your URL search line.
If you can't get the link to work just do a google search for bartholomew fryatt.
He will be your first hit
Sorry, the BEAR family intermarried in the two lines of the revolutionary
brothers, John and William. The Swisher family was in both lines also.
Dick Piatt, West Chester, PA.
Liz,
Thanks for the link to the Lycoming Co Genealogical Project. My search of the
page turned up
Charlotte Piatt married Franklin Porter
Polly Foresman married _____ Piatt
Miss Piatt (sister of Judge Piatt) married John Foresman as his first wife.
Among the children was a son PIATT Foresman, another use of Piatt as a given
name.

*argh* Ok. Thanks Laverne. I guess I was hoping that someone would tell me
they've researched this and found no-one listed as named FRyatt closer than
that last couple of generations. If that were the case we could assume
transcription error that was accepted by other researchers. Like our
Bartholomew, sources on this one seem pretty limited.
Ive never had such as solid brick wall as my William.
Thanks for clarifying him! (I think)
