Thanks Laverne and John for the added info...Im still poking around in this
family. Interesting note here, the Flesher family traces back to Crabbottom
Pendelton County, Virginia. They Seyberts (Wm Piatt Flesher's grandmother)
traces to Augusta County VA.

For Robin and John,

In following up on the link posted by John Keilch as a source for the
information on WILLIAM PIATT FLESHER, I found that he was the son of JOHN
FLESHER JR and FRANCES JANE ECKLES. John Jr and Frances Eckles were married
in McClean Co IL on 20 May 1849. Frances had been born in Ohio about 1818.

In checking the Piatt Family Newsletter for Eckles I found that MARGARET
PIATT married JOHN GRAHAM ECKLES in 1807. By 1850 John Graham and Margaret
Piatt Eckles were in McClean Co IL.

John Graham and Margaret Piatt Eckles had at least 9 children beginning in
1808 but there is no daughter named FRANCES JANE. There was a JANE ELLEN,
however. Information on these children is sketchy, but the circumstances are
compelling enough to pursue finding the marriage record for John Flesher Jr
and Frances Jane Eckles in McClean Co IL with the thought that she would be
the daughter of Margaret Piatt and John Graham Eckles.

If this link should prove out, the lineage would be:

..Rene Piatt and Elizabeth Sheffield
...Jacob Piatt and Mary Hull
....John Piatt and Frances Van Vliet Wyckoff
.....Abraham Piatt and Annabelle Andrew
......Margaret Piatt and John Graham Eckles

Yes, John K has a good idea to compile a list of all known persons with
Piatt/Pyatt as a given or middle name. Such usage should almost always imply
a connection to the Piatt families.
