Greetings, All,
Taking a longshot, and getting away from PIAT/ PYATT as a surname, my 4th
great grandpa was Pyatt MARTIN, named after his grandmother, Dinah PYATT/
Jacob/ Rene.
In your "searches," if you ever find mention of this Pyatt, I'd be MOST
happy to hear.

Pyatt MARTIN
Born prob. 8 Oct, near Piscataway, Middlesex Co NJ
Died 22 Jul 1828, Marion Co OH, bur Pleasant-Liberty Cem, ae 53
Married circa 1798/1800, prob in OH or NJ to:
Anna HOAGLAND (HOAG??), said to be d/o James & Martha (HOOEY)
Born circa 1775-80, prob NJ
Died circa 1843, prob Pleasant twp, Marion Co OH

Pyatt moved from NJ to Warren twp., Jefferson Co OH, with his parents,
Jacob & Elizabeth (DUNHAM) MARTIN, prob. during the early 1790s.

No known military service.

A family story says that after Pyatt's death, his wife Anna and another
woman, both with a child on their laps, traveled by horseback to NJ to settle
up some of Pyatt's affairs there. I'm curious as to what "affairs" might
have remained in NJ.
Primary proof seems difficult to find, with the exception of a few Census
schedules, and Pyatt's tombstone. Will be especially interested in sources
of any data found.
Best wishes to all,
Caral
