This is the current thinking on this line of Monroe Co Piatts. Additions
and/or corrections are welcome.

James Piatt Sr (1765-1847) & Nancy Coleman (c1774-c1840)
.John Piatt (1796-1880) & Elizabeth Keezy (1802-1886)
..Benjamin Piatt (1828-1878) & Phoebe Watson (1832-1898)
...Benjamin Watson Piatt (1853-1875) & Rebecca J Hendershot (1854-1945)
....George Washington Piatt (1881-?) and Winona/Winifred Taylor
.....William Rome Piatt (1916-pre1997)

The line before Monroe Co is the standard Jacob line across PA:

.Rene Piatt and Elizabeth Sheffield
..Jacob Piatt and Mary Hull
...Jacob Piatt and Jean Paul
....Jacob Piatt and Elizabeth Dunham
.....James Piatt Sr and Nancy Coleman as above

On one of my first trips to Monroe Co in the 1980s Rome Piatt had run for
elective office. Some of his campaign posters were still posted on trees.
The election was over so I stopped and gathered a couple of posters to bring
home to add to the Piatt collection.
