Since I'm back home I hope to get back to catching up on delinquent answers to
e-mails and postings to surname boards.

While catching up on my snail mail I noticed this very interesting acquisition
by the Ohio Historical Society as listed in Echoes, Vol 40, No 6, December
2001/January 2002, page 4:

"Adams County, Ohio Legal Documents 1799-1857
This anonymous donation of a variety of early Adams County legal documents
includes court summons, indictments, indentures, voting records, poll books,
common please court records, estate appraisals, and receipts. M2002-000012, donation"

I'm sure the descendants of the Adams Co line of Piatts would hope that
something might be found concerning Jacob, Benjamin, Lewis and others of this
area. Now if anonymous would just part with the rest of the public records
being stashed in the attic or barn of a private residence perhaps many
genealogical questions could be answered.
