Hello, Phyllis. Your story sounds amazingly like mine. Guess it is a
common historical background for settlers moving into Indian occupied areas. The
Piatt in my family was my GREAT GREAT grandmother MARGARETT PYEATT, BORN
DECEMBER 12, 1807 IN TENNESSEE AND MARRIED TO MY GREAT GREAT GRANDFATHER THOMAS
JEFFERSON CABE, IRISH, BORN APRIL 11, 1793 ON SHIPBOARD FROM IRELAND TO
AMERICA. THEIR DAUGHTER ELIZABETH "LIZZIE" CABE WAS LISTED IN THE US CENSUS AS
WHITE AND INDIAN. SO MY MYSTERY BEGINS...

LOOKING FOR FOR MY PIATT RELATIVES.

MY MOM WAS THELMA G HARRISON SINK. (HER MOTHER WAS DORA ALICE PIATT
HARRISON OF DARKE CO. OHIO BORN AROUND 1865. FATHER WAS JOHN PIATT.) HIS
FATHER POSSIBLY A JAKOB PIATT .

TRYING TO TRACE WITH EITHER THIS JOHN PIATT OR HIS FATHER JAKOB
REPORTED TO HAVE INDIAN ANACAESTRY. THEN FOUND AFTER MY MOTHER DEATH AND
HER MOTHER'S DEATH REPORTED BY SOME COUSIN THAT EITHER OMEO F THESE
GENTLMAN MY GRAND FATHER AND GREAT GRANDFATHER WAS EITHER RAISED BY A
CHEROKEE FAMILY OR BIOLOGICAL RELATION IN KOKOMO INDIANA ON AND INDIAN
RESERVATION .

AS I AM 68 I WOULD LIKE TO CLARIFY THIS MATTER. MY EARLY
INFORMATION GRAND FATHERS WERE SETTLED IN THEIR ADULT LIFE IN AREAS OF DARKE
CO. AND WERE BURIED THERE, NEAR SUCH TOWNS AS GREENVILLE OHIO NEW
MADISON OHIO AND NEW MADISON OHIO . ANY INFORMATION ON THIS WOULD BE
HELPFUL . MY NAME IS PHYLLIS. I AM OF PIQUA, OHIO .
