Yes Laverne,

> Likewise we have no particpant who represents the line of NC Rev soldier Joseph Pyatt, although we are hoping to rectify that. It would appear from logic, I hope more than a hunch, that there are at least three Piatt/Pyatt immigrations--Rene of NJ, Rev War Joseph Pyatt from Staffordshire(?) ENG, and the Pyatts of the SC coast. Whether there may be a connection or not among these lines prior to arriving in the colonies could be proved or disproved by DNA testing.

I share the same suspicion--if there is a connection between these 3 lines, I believe it would be pre-colonial America, in England or France.
