The Benjamin who married Rachael McWms died in the Civil War. I saw the 2nd
Ben and wondered who he was. The line descending from Ben and Rachael still
live in Bartholomew Co Indiana. They spell the name Pyatt. Earlier records
have it as Peatt and then I think I found Piatt.

The Pyatt line is not mine. Rachael is the dau of John McWms. I "think"
John is a bro to my James so filling in this line with Daniel Pyatt just in
case. Dan Pyatt will be joining in the research soon as he can. Everything
I find, I pass on to Dan. Appreciate whatever help we can get.
