I am not really a Pieratt researcher, but I do have an Elizabeth Pieratt (or
Perrat) as the first wife of George Washington Goodpaster (or Goodpasture).
I am descended from his second wife, Elizabeth Oakley.

I have a reference to Elizabeth Pierratt's parents from a Biographical
sketch of George W. Goodpaster from "Kentucky: A History of the State" (6th
ed., 1887) by Perrin, Battle & Kniffin (also posted 12 December 1999 on U.S.
Biographies Project) as follows: "He was married in 1833 to Elizabeth
Pieratt, of Bath County, daughter of James and Sarah (Tipton) Pieratt,
natives, respectively, of Bath and Estill Counties. No children were born
to this union. Mrs. Goodpaster died soon after marriage ..."

This is from my database:
GEORGE* WASHINGTON GOODPASTER was born 05 Feb 1812 in Bath Co., KY, and died
18 Apr 1900 in Montgomery Co., KY.

He married (1) ELIZABETH PIERATT 18 Oct 1833 in Bath Co., KY, daughter of
JAMES PIERATT and SARAH TIPTON. She was born in Bath Co., KY, and died Feb
1834 in Bath Co., KY. They had no children.

He married (2) ELIZABETH* OAKLEY 26 Apr 1838 in Morgan Co., KY, daughter of
JOHN* OAKLEY and MARGARET* LEWIS. She was born 23 Dec 1817 in West Liberty,
Morgan Co., KY, and died 1863 in Montgomery Co., KY. They had eight
children. He married (3) ELIZABETH A. AMYX 18 Nov 1864 in Morgan Co., KY,
daughter of JOSEPH AMYX and FRANCES NICKELL. She was born 08 Nov 1842 in
Morgan Co., KY, and died 30 Sep 1887 in Montgomery Co., KY. They had five
children.

I have no idea if this is a connection to your Pieratt, but I hope it helps
some.
