The Piatt Family Newsletter, edited by E M White of Rockledge, Florida.  Information submitted by B L Piatt: Tradition says that James, Sr's wife Nancy died in 1850.  However, in 1843 James and his wife Barbery transferred land to James H. Craig.  This Barbary is thought to be Barbara Bruce Craig Piatt, James' second wife.  No records of the deaths of these last three people have been found, nor any indication of the location of their graves.

 

 

 

Children:

NOTE: I have seen many sources listing Hannah Piatt Conger as a daughter of James Piatt, however, Hannah does not fit into any census with this family, and I have found no records that list James Piatt as her father.  I have found a record that listed Hannah Piatt Conger as the daughter of John Piatt.

Shawnee Heritage, by Don Greene

1259 Pyatt, Elizabeth (mother of James Piatt) - Pekowi born about 1735 PA – d. after 1784 – wife of Jacob Pyatt / 25 – adopted white, mother of Jacob Pyatt Jr/51, Benjamin Pyatt/53, James Pyatt/55, Thomas Pyatt/57,  Robert Pyatt/59, Rebecca Pyatt/61, Rachel Pyatt/63, Mary Pyatt/65, Diana Pyatt/67, Susanna Pyatt/69, Elizabeth Pyatt/71, - all ½ Pekow-Metis

 

NOTE: Pekowi was the name of one of the five divisions (or bands) of the Shawnee, a Native American people, during the 18th century. The other four divisions were the Chalahgawtha, Mekoche, Kispoko, and Hathawekela. Together these divisions formed the loose confederacy that was the Shawnee tribe. All five Shawnee division names have been spelled in a great variety of ways. Variations of the name "Pekowi" are reflected in many place names in the United States, including Piqua, Pickawillany, Pickaway, and Pequea.
